Science: MSE’s Phil De Luna say we’re on the cusp of a carbon dioxide–recycling revolution

March 29, 2018
Phil De Luna (MSE PhD candidate) is first author on an analysis of how researchers could capture and recycle the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. "If we continue to work at this, it’s a matter of time before we have power plants where CO2 is emitted, captured and converted,” De Luna says. (Credit: Tyler Irving)
