CO2 capture

CO₂ capture is a process that removes carbon dioxide from sources like power plants or the atmosphere. It involves capturing CO₂ emissions before they reach the air, using specialized technologies such as chemical solvents or physical filters. Once captured, the CO₂ can be stored underground in geological formations or utilized in products like fuels or materials. This technology helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, combating climate change while allowing continued use of fossil fuels or integrating with renewable energy sources. Essentially, it acts as a way to prevent CO₂ from contributing to global warming.
