Convert Carbon Dioxide to Carbon Monoxide at Room Temps
November 25, 2020 | 1 Comment
Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) researchers have demonstrated a room-temperature method that could significantly reduce carbon dioxide levels in fossil-fuel power plant exhaust, one of the main sources of carbon emissions in the atmosphere and make it available for CO2 recycling. Although the researchers demonstrated this method in a small-scale, highly controlled […]

New Membrane Separates Out CO2
November 5, 2020 | Leave a Comment
Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… A new Massachusetts Institute of Technology system could provide a way of continuously removing carbon dioxide from a stream of waste gases, or even from the air. The key component is an electrochemically assisted membrane whose permeability to gas can be switched on and off at will, using no moving parts and relatively little […]

New Device Captures More CO2
September 24, 2020 | Leave a Comment
Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers have designed and additively manufactured a first-of-its-kind aluminum device that enhances the capture of carbon dioxide emitted from fossil fuel plants and other industrial processes. Solutions for reducing global emissions of heat-trapping greenhouse gases such as CO2 address the continued use of low-cost, domestic fossil fuel resources while mitigating […]

A Cold Tube Can Beat AC For Cooling
September 10, 2020 | Leave a Comment
University of British Columbia researchers can show how a ‘Cold Tube’ can offer relief from the summer heat without relying on air conditioning. A Cold Tube uses half the energy of conventional air conditioners and can be used outdoors or indoors. Many people beat the summer heat by cranking the air conditioning. However, air conditioners […]
