Experts develop the world's lightest carbon dioxide absorber

Recently, Nobel Prize winner George Olah, together with the University of Northern California, has developed a material that can effectively absorb carbon dioxide gas.

After dissolving polyethanolamine in methanol, they applied it to the surface of fumed silica (an industrially produced porous solid). When the solution was concentrated, polyethanolamine obtained a very high surface area, which greatly enhanced the Its effect of absorbing gas. According to experimental data, this new material can absorb 1.72 nanomoles of carbon dioxide per gram on average, and this data is much higher than the absorption rate of 1.44 nanomoles of other similar materials. In addition, this method of material manufacturing is simple and cost-effective, making it the cheapest and most efficient carbon dioxide absorber available today. According to the researchers, this new type of material will help advance research on large-capacity batteries and artificial trees to reduce the negative effects of greenhouse gases. Further research and application of this kind of material application field are still ongoing.
