Exotic Powder Pulls Carbon Dioxide from the Air at a Record Rate
Scientists and engineers are developing big machines to suck carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, but the technology requires significant energy and costs—up to $1,000 per metric ton of captured CO2. Chemists at the University of California, Berkeley, have created a yellow powder they claim could boost this field by absorbing CO2 much more efficiently.
