Although there are now a number of systems that capture carbon emissions from smokestacks, many people may still wonder – what is that captured carbon used for? Well, Swiss company On is making shoes out of the stuff.Continue ReadingCategory: Environme… Continue reading Cloudprime running shoes will incorporate captured-carbon-based foam

The US state of Wyoming is set to welcome the world’s largest direct air capture plant for the removal of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Called Project Bison, the facility is slated to swing into action next year and, all going to plan, will scale up its … Continue reading World’s biggest carbon capture plant set for Wyoming
A student team from the Eindhoven University of Technology has built a prototype electric passenger car that removes and stores carbon dioxide from the air as it rolls down the road, with the aim of capturing more CO2 than is emitted during the full li… Continue reading Prototype EV scrubs CO2 from the air as it drives along
We’re seeing a growing emphasis on direct air capture technology in our efforts to combat climate change, and an interesting new take on this technology could see it put to use on railways around the world. US outfit CO2Rail is developing specialized r… Continue reading CO2Rail aims to turn train cars into rolling carbon capture plants
The ultimate contribution that direct air capture might make in helping us address climate change remains to be seen, but there’s no shortage of startups, governments and research groups driving the technology forward. Chief among them is Swiss outfit … Continue reading Work begins on Mammoth, the world’s largest CO2 direct air capture plant
Scientists have announced an interesting new means of removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from flue gas emissions, which would create a usable substance. It’s a sheet of treated cotton, which converts CO2 gas into bicarbonate.Continue ReadingCategory: Enviro… Continue reading Fabric-based filter converts flue gas CO2 into bicarbonate
As carbon dioxide builds up in the atmosphere, it won’t be enough to simply curb our emissions – we’ll need to actively remove some of what we’ve already released. In a new advance, researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new co… Continue reading World’s fastest carbon capture system claims 99% efficiency in ambient air
As part of its ambitions to move to a net-zero economy by 2050, the US Department of Energy (DOE) has been ramping up its plans to facilitate removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and drive down the cost of the technology required to do so. The… Continue reading US pours $3.5 billion into direct air capture hubs for carbon removal
