Results of research published today in the international peer-reviewed journal, Science. A durable and scalable metal-organic framework (MOF) captures CO 2 with high capacity, high stability and ...

A key component of ambient direct air capture (DAC) systems that remove carbon dioxide from the air is the sorbent material that is used to first capture the carbon and then to release it. Certain ...

Researchers estimate that mercury emissions in the atmosphere have quadrupled since the Industrial Revolution. The heavy metal, generated by burning fossil fuels and the disposal of industrial and ...

The air contains water. We call it humidity. Even in the desert, there is water in the air. Scientists have been working on ways to squeeze water out of the air to produce clean drinking water. They ...

Scientists just found a cooler way to fight climate change — literally. A research team at Georgia Tech has developed techniques for capturing CO₂ more efficiently and affordably using extremely cold ...

MIT engineers have developed a new, rapid method for extracting clean drinking water from sponge-like atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) materials. Standard AWH systems rely on sorbents — materials ...
