Trash to treasure: Scientists create plastic that captures carbon
Scientists at the University of Copenhagen have developed BAETA, a new material made from upcycled PET plastic that efficiently captures CO2. This innovative solution transforms plastic waste into a valuable resource for combating climate change by absorbing CO2 from the air or industrial exhaust. BAETA offers a sustainable approach to addressing both plastic pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
