4 w. ago Promising medium can capture and convert carbon dioxide, while regenerating itself for reuse

Over the past decades, energy researchers have developed various promising solutions to limit the emission of greenhouse gases and source fuels or other chemicals more sustainably. These solutions include so-called carbon capture technologies and electrolyzers, devices that can capture carbon dioxide (CO2) and convert it into other valuable products, such as carbon monoxide (CO), methanol (CH OH), methane (CH ) and various other compounds.
