Tokyo Metropolitan University researchers have developed a new way to capture carbon emissions. The technology, using isophorone diamine (IPDA) in a “liquid-solid phase separation” system, can remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere with 99% efficiency.
According to the research team, the compound is reusable, requires little heating, and is at least twice as quick as existing devices, making it an exciting invention for direct air capture (DAC).
Climate change is causing devastating influence all around the world, and there is an urgent need for new policies, lifestyles, and technology that will reduce carbon emissions.
