Stanford chemists find a practical, low-cost way to permanently remove carbon dioxide from the air—the main driver of climate ...

“We envisioned a new chemistry to activate the inert [not chemically reactive] silicate minerals through a simple ion-exchange reaction,” Chen explained. Ions are atoms or groups of atoms with an ...

Researchers in the United States find a low-cost method using rocks to trap carbon dioxide - one of biggest drivers of global ...

Experts have found a way to make silicates rapidly absorb carbon, thanks to what they describe as a “new chemistry.” ...

Could a pile of rocks help to solve the climate crisis? Scientists at California’s Stanford University say they could. The ...

Reducing carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere is critical to slowing global warming. While direct air capture (DAC) ...

Scientists have discovered how to turn common minerals into materials that spontaneously remove and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. In the lab, the materials pull CO2 from the air thousands ...

Stanford researchers developed a scalable method to permanently remove CO2 from the atmosphere using heat-activated minerals.
