May: Direct Air Capture of Carbon Dioxide
Join EARTH for an in‑depth Zoom presentation featuring Dr. Christopher W. Jones, John F. Brock III School Chair and Professor of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. A global leader in catalysis, adsorption, and materials design, Dr. Jones brings an integrated chemistry‑engineering perspective to the challenge of direct air capture (DAC) of carbon dioxide.
Date: May 19
Time: 2:00–3:00 PM CT / 3:00–4:00 PM ET
Format: Online (Zoom)
This webinar will explore:
- Why climate models point to large‑scale carbon dioxide removal to limit warming below 2 °C
- The challenges of separating CO₂ from ultra‑dilute ambient air
- Design and performance of porous oxide‑supported amine materials for DAC
- How customized air/solid contactors and integrated process design reduce costs and accelerate scalable deployment
Join us to see how advances in materials chemistry and chemical engineering are enabling next‑generation carbon removal technologies. Bring your questions for our live Q&A!
