Scientists have developed a new carbon material to make carbon capture more efficient and cheaper. The key is the precise arrangement of nitrogen atoms in the structure of the material. This structure enables more efficient capture of CO2 and its release at lower temperatures. Specifically, one version of the material works at temperatures below 60°C. This enables the use of waste heat instead of waste energy. The new material represents a potential solution for climate technologies of the future.
