Common Rocks And A Cement-Making Technique Could Transform How We Capture Carbon Dioxide
Chemists at Stanford University have developed a low-cost way to remove carbon dioxide (CO) from the atmosphere using an unlikely source: rocks. The process involves heating common minerals, so they transform into materials that spontaneously pull carbon from the atmosphere and permanently contain it.
Scientists Discover Low-Cost Way To Trap Carbon Using Common Rocks
Stanford researchers developed a scalable method to permanently remove CO2 from the atmosphere using heat-activated minerals. Their kiln-based process transforms silicates into materials that spontaneously trap carbon.
New process gets common rocks to trap carbon rapidly and cheaply
Stanford University chemists have developed a practical, low-cost way to permanently remove atmospheric carbon dioxide, the main driver of global warming and climate change.
Scientists find a cheap and fast way to trap carbon in rocks
Stanford University scientists have found a practical and affordable way to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and store it permanently. This could be a major step in the fight against climate change.
Scientists develop cheap and effective way to trap carbon in common rocks
Reducing carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere is critical to slowing global warming. While direct air capture (DAC) technology has gained attention, it remains expensive and energy-intensive, requiring up to 2.
