Could the humble sea urchin hold the key to carbon capture?
2013-02-05 14:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: The discovery that sea urchins use nickel particles to harness carbon dioxide from the sea could be the key to capturing tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. Experts at Newcastle University, UK, have discovered that in the presence of a nickel catalyst, CO2 can be converted rapidly and cheaply into the harmless, solid mineral, calcium carbonate. This discovery, which is published February 5 in the academic journal Catalysis Science & Technology, has the potential to revolutionize...

Sea urchin nickel 'trick' could be key to capturing carbon
2013-02-05 03:58:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: Researchers say that the natural ability of sea urchins to absorb CO2 could be a model for an effective carbon capture and storage system. Newcastle University scientists discovered by chance that urchins use the metal nickel to turn carbon dioxide into shell. They say the technique can be harnessed to turn emissions from power plants into the harmless calcium carbonate. The research is in the journal, Catalysis Science and Technology. Many sea creatures convert carbon dioxide in the...
