Carbon capture with sawdust

Carbon capture with sawdust

Carbon material created by Antonio Fuertes and his colleagues can be used to remove CO2 emissions through a method called carbon capture. According to the article carbon capture is "the removal of CO2 from waste gases". The newly created carbon material is porous and made of sawdust. The pores are created when KOH activates a hydrochar. This event will have a positive effect. It serves as a step to reduce carbon dioxide emissions on our planet. The world will be affected by the amount of CO2 emitted in the air. Now, carbon capture will be simpler and more effective.
