Audi partnering with Climeworks on CO2 direct air capture and storage

Green Car Congress

The Swiss company Climeworks is building the world’s largest direct air capture (DAC) and storage facility for converting atmospheric CO 2 to rock in Iceland. Water from the Hellisheiði power plant then flows through the facility and transports the carbon dioxide roughly 2,000 meters below the surface of the Earth.

Designing a Miniaturized Wastewater Treatment Plant for Micropollutant Degradation

Cars That Think

What about a miniaturized water treatment plant? Within their R&D department, Eden Cleantech, they are developing a compact, energy-saving water treatment system to help tackle the growing presence of micropollutants in wastewater. This raises the question: How can a device made from CDs decontaminate water?

Big Science tools for clean transportation: neutron scattering at ORNL

Green Car Congress

Å, 152 – 1515 m/s) neutrons are preferred due to their favorable detection reactions and due to their very useful contrast behavior, note the scientists at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. Neutrons, on the other hand, can obtain an appreciable scattering signal from light elements. Å; 1515 - 4374 m/s) and cold (0.12
