Carbon capture is essential to reduce the impact of human carbon dioxide emissions on our climate. Researchers have developed a method to confirm whether carbon in concrete originates from the raw ...

When experimental results don't match scientists' predictions, it's usually assumed that the predictions were wrong. But new research into materials that pull carbon dioxide directly from the air ...

Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) are two distinct options to help achieve climate goals by reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations. Carbon Dioxide Removal ...

Aircapture, a Berkeley-based direct air capture (DAC) company, announced its selection as one of 16 winners of Tencent's ...

Researchers at Illinois and Toyota developed an electrochemical direct air capture device that uses electricity and ...

University of Michigan researchers have helped develop a method to take carbon dioxide, an industrial waste product that pollutes the atmosphere and turn it into something useful: precursors to make ...

Scientists have found that an item widely used in kitchens can absorb planet-heating carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, in what they hope will become a low-cost and efficient tool to slow climate ...

As the world grapples with the urgent need to limit global warming to less than +2.0°C, carbon dioxide removal technologies have moved from the margins to the mainstream of climate strategy. According ...

Many direct air capture systems rely on heat and oxygen-sensitive materials, which can make them energy-intensive, less efficient, and less durable in real-world air conditions. Researchers devised an ...

Carbon emissions from burning fossil fuels contains very little carbon-14 (14 C) because it has decayed so much over time. This makes carbon-14 very useful for tracing carbon emissions from natural ...
