The team, led by Haotian Wang, emphasizes that this technology can turn carbon capture into “a more economically viable and viable solution for various industries.” The reactor recovers carbon dioxide from solutions containing industrial amounts of carbon, operating at room temperature without the need for additional chemicals and without byproducts.
The design allows co-production of hydrogen during the DAC process, potentially reducing operating costs for the production of carbon-neutral fuels and chemicals. The reactor reduces energy consumption by effectively controlling ion movement and mass transport by using electrical energy instead of thermal energy.
