Carbon capture method mines cement ingredients from the air University of Michigan researchers have helped develop a method to take carbon dioxide, an industrial waste product that pollutes the atmosphere and turn it into something useful: precursors to make c...

Check out this news story about our group's latest research @umich.edu in collaboration with the Velazquez Lab @ucdavis.bsky.social and the Alexandrova Lab @uclacb.bsky.social as part of the 4C Energy Frontier Research Center funded by the DOE Office of Science.

Selective Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 to Metal Oxalates in Nonaqueous Solutions Using Trace Metal Pb on Carbon Supports Enhanced by a Tailored Microenvironment Encapsulating trace lead (Pb) in carbon electrodes with a fluoropolymer tailors the microenvironment for carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction. This enhances efficiency and selectivity, offering a tunable a...

Excited about our latest work with the Velazquez Lab @ucdchem.bsky.social and the Alexandrova Lab @uclacb.bsky.social as part of our 4C EFRC. We show that trace Pb can convert waste CO2 into metal oxalates, precursors for alternative cements. @umich.edu #umichresearch. doi.org/10.1002/aenm...
