Current carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technologies require high energy input costly catalysts. Here, an effective pathway is offered that addresses climate action by atmospheric CO2 sequestration. Industrially relevant highly reactive alkali cellulose solutions are used as absorption media. The latter lead to mineralized materials (MCM) at a tailorable cellulose-to-mineral ratio, forming organic-inorganic viscous systems (viscosity from 102 107 mPa s storage modulus 10 105 Pa)....
Agriculture residues from blueberries were transformed into added-value products and materials using γ-valerolactone an ionic liquid.
Whereas scientific explanations have expanded our understanding of nature, they are often inappropriate for communicating the relevance science to a lay audience. The arts avert these intellectual hurdles in permitting people appreciate while also informing endeavors. This project combines art sculpture with technology electro mineral accretion (EMA) and coral reef restoration. A DNA-inspired permits transmission minimal DC current that extracts minerals from seawater deposits them on steel...
