Elucidate the reaction route of carbon dioxide in super critical water
The first principle Marcov state model elucidates the complex reaction speed theory of CO2 in the superractable water. Credit: Professor Chu Li, Jie Shu, Ding Pan The research team has made important discoveries about the complex reaction mechanism of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in super -critical water. These discoveries are important to understand the mining mine of CO2 in nature and…

Research warns that carbon dioxide rate of rise is ‘incompatible’ with 1.5℃ target
Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is increasing at a rate that is incompatible with keeping global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius (34.7 degrees Fahrenheit), a Japan Meteorological Agency study warns. Concentrations of major greenhouse gases rose in 2024 at the fastest annual level in a long-term record of measurements at Hawaii’s Mauna Loa, which dates back…

How we discovered that the ocean surface absorbs far more carbon dioxide than previously thought
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain The ocean plays a vital role in capturing carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere and has so far acted as a brake on the full effects of climate change. Current estimates of CO₂ from the atmosphere lost to the ocean, commonly referred to as ocean CO₂ sinks, suggest that approximately 25% of all human CO₂ emissions…

Add visible light energy to your carbon dioxide recycling process and you get a two-for-one deal
New research from the University of Illinois captures energy from the visible light spectrum to enhance carbon dioxide recycling. Credit: National Science Foundation By combining visible light and electrochemistry, researchers accelerated the conversion of carbon dioxide into valuable products and stumbled upon a surprising discovery. The research team shows that visible light significantly improves an important chemical property called selectivity,…
