UC Berkeley's COF-999: Powdering Away CO₂

UC Berkeley has developed COF-999, a yellow fluffy powder mirroring a tree's CO₂ absorption—88 pounds captured per half-pound of COF-999! This covalent organic framework works swiftly, reaching full capacity in two hours and enduring 100 reuse cycles without decline. Expected for direct air capture plants by 2026, COF-999 aligns with California's climate targets. With AI-driven enhancements on the horizon, this innovation may just be the eco-friendly superhero we need, minus the cape.
