With varying climate conditions around the world, where are the most cost-effective locations to deploy direct air capture facilities?
Direct air capture: A little history
Direct air capture can find its roots in antiquity and will be a major technology for the future.
Electro swing direct air capture
An innovative advance dubbed “electro swing” may challenge the energy efficiency, capacity, and scalability of large-scale carbon capture.
Direct air capture trains
What if the energy released when freight trains slow or stop could be applied to carbon capture technology?
Caffeine coating gives fuel cells a boost
Modifying hydrogen fuel cells with caffeine helped protect them from degradation, resulting in up to 11-fold increase in activity.
Photoacids capture and release carbon with the flick of a switch
Scientists develop a light-driven carbon capture system using photoacids, creating an energy-efficient method to remove atmospheric carbon dioxide.
When it comes to VR, emotional connection beats sophisticated graphics
A lot of money goes into making tech better, but more effort needs to be centered on improving the user’s emotional experience.
Sleep loss directly impacts cardiovascular health in women
Cutting short “shut eye” by just an hour and a half a night directly impairs blood vessel cells in healthy women.
A biodegradable scaffold repairs nerve damage in mice
A fully biodegradable nerve scaffold not only helps regenerate damaged nerves, but negates the need for retrieval procedures.
Carbon capture using biomass offers new hope in reducing emissions
A renewable, carbon-based absorbent is challenging MOFs in carbon capture technology, offering sustainable solutions for emissions reduction.
