Summary
To contain the damage of climate change, reducing emissions and switching to renewable energy sources will not be enough. Removing some of the excess carbon dioxide warming our planet is critically important; however, current methods for human-directed carbon capture are expensive and inefficient. To support the development of new carbon capture technologies, nine Cornell researchers are establishing the Cornell Advanced Platform for Testing, Utilization, and REsearch in CO2 capture and conversion technologies (CAPTURE-Lab).
The experimental facility will explore carbon capture, utilization or storage, and industrial decarbonization, and it will be sited at Cornell’s existing Combined Heat and Power Plant to give researchers access to real-world flue gas emissions.
