A typical large tree can suck as much as 40 kilograms of CO2 out of the air over the course of a year. Now scientists at UC Berkeley say they can do the same job with less than half a pound of synthesized powder called COF-999. Tested for 100 cycles,It does not loose efficiency in removing all CO2.

🔬 Researchers from Chiba University, Japan, have developed "viciazites," a new carbon-based material that precisely controls nitrogen-containing functional groups.

🌡️ These viciazites enable the release of captured carbon dioxide (CO2) at temperatures as low as 60 °C, significantly reducing the energy required for carbon capture.

✨ The key innovation is the adjacent positioning of nitrogen groups, particularly –NH2 groups, which improves energy efficiency compared to randomly placed groups.
