Difficult to capture at the source ➢Direct Air Capture (DAC) is the removal of CO 2 from the atmosphere ➢DAC Challenges: ➢ CO 2 concentration in air is about 420 ppm ➢ Implementation into extant flow processes ➢Drawbacks of current-generation CO 2 sorbents suggests the need for novel sorbent materials UNCAGE-ME EFRC: Rational design of novel carbon capture materials Mammoth DAC Plant (Climeworks) Study Aim: High-throughput discovery of the molecular design principles underlying porous liquid formation
