A new technology from U of T Engineering is taking a substantial step towards enabling manufacturers to create plastics out of two key ingredients: sunshine and pollution. Today, non-renewab... Read more
An Earth observation satellite, called TanSat, has produced its first global carbon dioxide maps. TanSat was launched by a collaborative team of researchers in China, and these maps are the... Read more
Researchers at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum have found a way to turn climate-damaging CO2 into an alcohol that could serve as a raw material for the chemical industry – without producing larg... Read more
Researchers at the Energy Safety Research Institute (ESRI) at Swansea University have found a way of converting waste carbon dioxide into a molecule that forms the basis of making plastics R... Read more
The University of Surrey has developed a new and cost-effective catalyst to recycle two of the main causes behind climate change – carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). In a study pu... Read more
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have found a simple, reliable process to capture carbon dioxide directly from ambient air, offering a new option for ca... Read more
Researchers have successfully turned carbon dioxide into solid rock by injecting it into ancient lava flows For the first time, scientists have injected carbon dioxide into ancient lava flow... Read more
An international team of scientists have found a potentially viable way to remove anthropogenic (caused or influenced by humans) carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere – turn it into r... Read more
The new building material could transform polluting emissions into a valuable resource Imagine a world with little or no concrete. Would that even be possible? After all, concrete is everywh... Read more
A team of University of Texas at Arlington chemists and engineers have proven that concentrated light, heat and high pressures can drive the one-step conversion of carbon dioxide and water d... Read more
The research could one day create a sustainable fuel source from greenhouse gas emissions They’re making fuel from thin air at the USC Loker Hydrocarbon Research Institute. For the first tim... Read more
It could be the key to large-scale implementation of carbon capture Carbon capture is a process by which waste carbon dioxide (CO2) released by factories and power plants is collected and st... Read more
New power plant design to expand use of geothermal energy in the U.S. Researchers are developing a new kind of geothermal power plant that will lock away unwanted carbon dioxide (CO2) underg... Read more
Fertilising the oceans with iron to combat climate change can lock carbon away for centuries, research suggests. Tiny marine plants induced to grow by the iron sink to the ocean floor taking... Read more
A Finnish invention for controlling the greenhouse effect has been patented Success in the modern world calls for not only keeeping up with the latest development but, in many cases, also st... Read more
