- Additional information
- An unprecedented low-grade-heat driven process for capturing CO2 directly from the air is presented. The work influenced research groups at Arizona State University, USA (DOI:10.1002/anie.201906756), University of Sharjah, UAE (DOI:10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.137221) and Jimei University, China (DOI:10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.980.493).The work has attracted international press coverage (https://bit.ly/2KXvzLA) and the attention of the German DGMK Society (https://dgmk.de/en/) who invited the lead author for a keynote lecture at their annual conference (https://dgmk.de/veranstaltungen/the-future-of-chemicals-and-fuels-feedstocks-and-process-technologies/). The scale-up of this process is under consideration for inclusion in the Sizewell C project, a new nuclear development in Suffolk proposed by EDF and GCN [Sizewell C contact available].
