Experts at Newcastle University, UK, have discovered that in the presence of a nickel catalyst, CO2 can be converted rapidly and cheaply into the harmless, solid mineral, calcium carbonate.
This discovery, which is published February 5 in the academic journal Catalysis Science & Technology, has the potential to revolutionize...
