Algae could help remove carbon dioxide from atmosphere - researchers
Global greenhouse gas emissions could be reduced by using algae that convert carbon dioxide into a raw material for producing carbon fibre, researches at the Technical University of Munich have found. The algae remove CO2 from the atmosphere and turn it into an oil that then serves as the basis for producing carbon fibre, thereby making the capture and reuse of carbon emissions economically viable. In a press release, the researchers say that carbon fibres could 鈥渞eplace structural steel in construction materials,鈥� or simply be stored underground to permanently remove the associated carbon dioxide equivalents from the atmosphere.
