Novel covalent organic framework quickly captures CO₂ from ambient air
- A new covalent organic framework captures CO₂ from ambient air without degradation by water or contaminants, overcoming limitations of existing direct air capture technologies.
- Zihui Zhou stated that just 200 grams of the material captures as much CO₂ in a year as a tree, specifically 20 kilograms .
- At 400 ppm CO₂ air, the new material reaches half capacity in about 18 minutes and is fully filled in around two hours.

A normal-sized tree can absorb 40 kilograms of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during a year. Now researchers at UC Berkeley in California claim they can do the same – with less than a pound of fluffy yellow powder. - It works perfectly, says Omar Yaghi, one of the researchers behind the innovation according to the LA Times.
