Dual Function Materials for Direct Air Capture of CO2
SBC: SUSTEON INC Topic: C5020bDirect air capture (DAC) technologies are being developed for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) at scale to mitigate the climate impact of CO2. Current estimates for DAC suggest that it can cost between $300 - $1,500/tonne of CO2 captured. Besides CDR technologies using long-term CO2 storage, reactive DAC technologies can capture and directly convert the captured CO2 into value-added products. The prop ...
