Researchers at Aarhus University have developed a method to upcycle discarded polystyrene into a material for carbon capture systems. The process chemically modifies polystyrene to incorporate amine groups, which act as sponges for CO2, potentially offering a dual solution to plastic waste and atmospheric carbon.
China Electric Power News reports on a new carbon capture technology by Jiangnan Environmental Technology that uses ammonia to convert sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide from coal emissions into fertilizer, offsetting capture costs.
