New powder that captures carbon could be 'quantum leap' for industry

A 'covalent organic framework' can be used to capture carbon to store it or convert it for industrial useAn innocuous yellow powder, created in a lab, could be a new way to combat the climate crisis by absorbing carbon from the air.Just half a pound of the stuff may remove as much carbon dioxide as a tree can, according to early tests. Once the carbon is absorbed by the powder, it can be released into safe storage or be used in industrial processes, like carbonizing drinks. Continue reading...
