Global CO2 emissions stalled for the third year in a row

Green Car Congress

The annual assessment of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by the JRC and the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (PBL) confirms that CO 2 emissions have stalled for the third year in a row. CH 4 is mainly generated by agricultural activities, the production of coal and gas, as well as waste treatment and disposal.

New diamine-appended MOFs can capture CO2 for half or less of the energy cost of current materials

Green Car Congress

UC Berkeley chemists have developed a new material that can efficiently capture CO 2 and then release it at lower temperatures than current carbon-capture materials, potentially cutting by half or more the energy currently consumed in the process. The diamine-appended metal-organic framework before and after binding of carbon dioxide.
