A new method to capture carbon dioxide from the air has been developed at the University of Helsinki’s chemistry department.

The method is based on a recyclable filtration fluid consisting of a superbase-alcohol compound. One gram of the new compound can absorb 156 milligrams of carbon dioxide.

In existing CCS projects, carbon is collected and compressed into a liquid, then pumped underground into geological formations like spent oil reservoirs. Proponents of CCS argue this creates a closed ...

Some of the thinnest materials known to humankind -- MXene and MBene compounds -- may provide solutions to scientists in their quest to curb the effects of global warming. These substances are only a ...

Scientists have uncovered new details explaining why iron oxide minerals are such effective long-term carbon traps in soils.

Traditional catalysts in the RWGS reaction are made from precious metals, including platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd) and gold (Au), limiting the cost efficiency of the reaction. Because of this, new ...

Scientists have used the James Webb Space Telescope to detect a new carbon compound in space for the first time. The carbon compound is known as methyl cation, or CH3+. It is important because it aids ...
