New technology makes the process of turning CO2 into valuable chemicals economically viable for industrialization
Wei-Jun Cai is the Mary A.S. Lighthipe Chair of Earth, Ocean, and Environment in the College of Earth, Ocean and Environment.
Using sewage discharged from wastewater treatment plants to sequester CO2 and stop it from reaching the atmosphere
Atmospheric air with low concentrations of carbon dioxide is passed through an aqueous solution of IPDA, where the carbon dioxide rapidly reacts to create a solid product. Carbon dioxide is subsequently re-released with mild heating of the product in suspension, for storage or new applications. CREDIT Tokyo Metropolitan University
