Direct Air Capture and CO₂ Storage #worldresearchawards #researchaward #researcher #carboncapture
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) sequestration is one of the most promising strategies for mitigating climate change and reducing global greenhouse gas emissions. This video explores the science, chemistry, and technology behind CO₂ sequestration, revealing how captured carbon dioxide can be safely stored or transformed to support a sustainable, low-carbon future.
CO₂ sequestration involves capturing carbon dioxide from industrial sources or directly from the atmosphere and storing it in secure locations such as deep geological formations, depleted oil and gas reservoirs, or saline aquifers. Advanced chemical methods, including absorption using amine solutions, adsorption on porous materials, and mineral carbonation, play a crucial role in efficiently trapping CO₂. Emerging materials like metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), porous carbons, and functionalized polymers are significantly improving capture efficiency and selectivity.
Beyond storage, researchers are exploring ways to utilize captured CO₂ as a valuable resource. Through chemical conversion and catalytic processes, CO₂ can be transformed into fuels, polymers, and fine chemicals, turning a major environmental challenge into an economic opportunity. These approaches align with the principles of green chemistry and circular carbon economies.
The video also highlights the importance of monitoring and safety in long-term CO₂ storage. Advanced sensing technologies, modeling tools, and geochemical analyses ensure that stored carbon remains secure over decades. Combined with renewable energy integration, CO₂ sequestration offers a viable pathway toward net-zero emissions.
Join us as we unlock the secrets of CO₂ sequestration and explore how chemistry, materials science, and environmental engineering are working together to protect our planet and shape a cleaner energy future.
