What is carbon dioxide air-capture technology?
Carbon dioxide or CO2 is widely acknowledged to be a major greenhouse gas (GHG) responsible for global warming. Air-capture technology is the name given to engineered systems for removing CO2 from the atmosphere. The CO2 so removed can then be sequestered (stored) or used in a wide range of existing commercial applications. CO2 is also removed from the atmosphere by natural processes. The two most important are absorption by the worlds oceans and photosynthesis the well-known process where trees and other vegetation remove CO2 from the air, converting it to plant growth and oxygen.
