Purdue and Sandia researchers uncover how common clay minerals can capture carbon dioxide directly from air, offering a low-cost climate solution.

The researchers focused on a specific smectite called saponite. They examined how saponite handles carbon dioxide and water vapor competing for space in the clay's tiny internal pores. Unlike past ...

One of Earth's most common nanomaterials is facilitating breakthroughs in tackling climate change: clay. In a new study ...
