MIT Carbon Capture and Conversion Laboratory

The MIT Carbon Capture and Conversion Laboratory focuses on developing technologies to capture carbon dioxide emissions from industrial sources and convert them into useful products like fuels and chemicals. Their work aims to reduce greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere while creating sustainable materials. This involves advanced chemical processes, materials, and engineering solutions designed to make carbon capture affordable and scalable. By transforming CO₂ instead of releasing it into the environment, the lab supports efforts to combat climate change and promote a circular carbon economy.
