Turning food waste into carbon captors

Researchers have presented a new direct air capture (DAC) method for separating CO2 from the air. Their technique uses food waste from cheese and tofu production, which is processed into protein beads. The capture and isolation of CO2 uses less energy than in conventional processes and is therefore expected to be more cost-effective.

Food waste beads could boost direct air capture by 10% to 50%

Biglie proteiche da scarti alimentari catturano CO2 con efficienza 10-50% superiore ai DAC convenzionali (97 mg/g). Rilascio a bassa energia a temperatura ambiente, materiale riutilizzabile: promette costi inferiori per la carbon capture, game changer per la decarbonizzazione.
