As climate crisis worsens, reducing carbon dioxide emissions becomes the world’s primary task. Researchers at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Australia, have developed a new method to instantly convert carbon dioxide into solid carbon that can be stored indefinitely or converted into useable materials. The technology works by bubbling carbon dioxide through a liquid metal tube and is designed for easy integration into emission sources.
Numerous research teams have been devoted to reducing carbon dioxide emissions. One of the possibilities is to capture it at the point of emission, with methods currently in research including filtering the gas through absorbent materials such as magnetic sponges, bubble-like membranes, zeolite foam, or clay or coffee grinds.
