Researchers use melamine to create effective, low-cost carbon capture; potential tailpipe application

Green Car Congress

This work creates a general industrialization method toward carbon dioxide capture via DCC atomic-level design strategies. The low cost of porous melamine means that the material could be deployed widely. —Mao et al. The best carbon capture technique today involves piping flue gases through liquid amines, which bind CO 2.
