Scientists are reporting discovery of an improved way to remove carbon dioxide the major greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming from smokestacks and other sources, including the atmosphere. Their report on the process, which achieves some of the highest carbon dioxide removal capacity ever reported for real-world conditions where the air contains moisture, appears in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
