Therefore, this technology has significant potential as a next-generation solution for Carbon Dioxide Capture and Utilization (CCU).
Last year, Interesting Engineering reported on the development of a lotus-inspired method to turn carbon dioxide into useful products.
Inspired by the water-repelling properties of the lotus plant, the University of Central Florida (UCF) developed a device for conversion. This technology offers a dual benefit: reducing carbon emissions from human activities and sustainably generating more energy.
