Believe it or not, the simplest form of life can actually outsmart the most complex life form when it comes to protecting the climate. That’s where a Jharkhand-based startup is betting big time. The ...

New research 1 shows that a genetically modified algal strain can capture carbon dioxide (CO2) and turn the greenhouse gas into twice as much biofuel compared to the wildtype strain, while also having ...

Tiny diatoms in the ocean are masters at capturing carbon dioxide from the environment. They fix up to 20 percent of the Earth's CO2. A research team has now discovered a protein shell in these algae ...

Using intricate geometry found in nature and refined through aerospace and biomedical design, scientists have now 3D-printed these forms into concrete to boost strength and capture carbon – creating a ...

High-starch algae are important in biofuel production, as a feed supplement in agriculture and as an efficient way to bind carbon dioxide. Researchers have now found a new method to control starch ...

Researchers in India have engineered a 200 L hybrid photobioreactor that captures industrial CO 2 emissions and converts them into biodegradable plastic using indigenous microalgae. Image Credit: ...

That latter bit is often referred to as carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) or, less broadly, carbon capture and ...

TechnoCarbon Technologies has developed a new solution designed to reduce the carbon footprint of buildings. Winner of a JEC Innovation Award, the Daccuss enclosure wall (for Direct Air Carbon Capture ...

A nanofiber air filter developed by the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) could turn existing building ventilation into carbon-capture devices while cutting ...
