Researchers have developed a new method for carbon storage that accelerates the formation of carbon dioxide hydrates using a chemical-free process.
This technique, which converts CO2 into stable ice-like materials for ocean burial, could significantly reduce the atmosphere’s carbon levels and address climate change more effectively than traditional methods.
A new way to store carbon captured from the atmosphere developed by researchers from The University of Texas at Austin works much faster than current methods without the harmful chemical accelerants they require.
In new research published today (July 8) in ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, the team developed a technique for ultrafast formation of carbon dioxide hydrates. These unique ice-like materials can bury carbon dioxide in the ocean, preventing it from being released into the atmosphere. ​
