Reactor developed at Rice could make direct air capture more energy efficient
Rice University researchers have developed an electrochemical reactor that has the potential to drastically reduce energy consumption for direct air capture, the removal of carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere. The new reactor design could be a part of the solution to the pressing problem of emission impacts on the climate and biosphere by enabling...
