NIST Develops New Testing System for Carbon Capture

In a new carbon capture testing apparatus, synthetic air flows through a column. The sorbent traps and captures the carbon molecules. The device measures how fast the sorbent becomes saturated with CO₂. // SOURCE: N. Hanacek/NIST

A new type of absorbing material developed by chemists at the University of California, Berkeley, could help get the world to negative emissions. The porous material — a covalent organic framework — captures CO2 from ambient air without degradation by water or other contaminants, one of the limitations of existing direct air capture (DAC) technologies.
