“Engineers develop a new way to remove carbon dioxide from air” by Nandhini Sivabalakannan






Summary:

Basically, a team of engineers came up with a brand new way of combating climate change. They did this by developing a new way to remove carbon dioxide in the air. What is significant about this discovery, is the fact that they can remove carbon dioxide at any concentrations. (power plants emissions to open air). This new technique requires less energy and expensive than previous methods. They invented a huge battery that removes carbon dioxide from the air, “passing over electrodes as it is being charged up, then releases the gas as it is discharged”.
