Congratulations to Dr. Shengqian Ma for receiving a Department of Energy grant to
develop carbon dioxide capture technology. Dr. Ma, along with collaborators at Northern
Illinois University, Argonne National Lab and Angstrom Advanced Inc., received a $2
Million Department of Energy grant to develop an industrial direct-air carbon dioxide
capture module, which will be integrated with a carbon dioxide electrolyzer system
to convert the trapped carbon dioxide to ethanol. The capture module will help reduce
or eliminate carbon dioxide emissions produced during manufacturing and industrial
processes, thus lowering greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
