Low-Cost Method to Remove CO2 from Air Using Cold Temps, Common Materials
Atlanta, GA (SPX) Jul 08, 2025 Researchers at Georgia Tech's School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (ChBE) have developed a promising approach for removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere to help mitigate global warming. While promising technologies for direct air capture (DAC) have emerged over the past decade, high capital and energy costs have hindered DAC implementation. However, in a new study published in Energy and Environmental Science, the research team demonstrated techniques for capturing CO2 ... read more |

Soil and sediment lock away more CO2 than thought: study
Paris (AFP) Mar 20, 2025 Soil, river sediment and dead vegetation lock away more planet-warming CO2 caused by humanity than trees, said a new study published Thursday, challenging long-held assumptions about how Earth stores carbon. The discovery would be "crucial for shaping future climate" policies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving the capture and storage of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, the study's authors said. About one-third of CO2 released by human activities is stored in land-based carbon ... read more
