The Power of Electrochemistry: Cleaning Up Seas
Scientists have been exploring a new way to fight climate change by removing carbon from the oceans using electrochemical systems. These systems use a process called alkalinity-swings to get rid of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This can be done in two ways: by releasing carbon dioxide gas or by turning it into solid minerals. To understand how well these systems ...
