| Project Name | Upgrading Plastic Waste into Low-Cost Porous Adsorbents for Direct Air Capture |
| Project Detail | Liang Feng is an assistant professor at Duke University in mechanical engineering and materials science. Feng is developing a process to convert plastic waste, such as plastic bottles and bags, into adsorbents to capture carbon dioxide. The approach seeks to take advantage of the tough and long-lasting nature of plastics to create carbon-dioxide sponges with high porosity and durability. |
