Scientists led by Kyriakos Stylianou at Oregon State University (OSU) have developed a cost-effective and efficient method to capture carbon dioxide, a significant cause of climate change, according to a study published in Cell Reports Physical Science. The research team focused on improving Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs), nanomaterials that trap carbon dioxide through adsorption in industrial settings. They typically act at the moment of emission, such as the smokestacks of factories, but existing MOFs face several challenges that limit their practical use, including high cost, reduced selectivity for carbon dioxide, instability in humid conditions, and limited CO2 uptake capacities. Addressing…
