This Is CDR Ep. 24: The Carbon Lockdown Project with Dr. Ning Zeng
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOO9vspK2fE
By OpenAir
In this episode This Is CDR is pleased to welcome Dr. Ning Zeng of the University of Maryland to tell us about the opportunity to durably sequester carbon at low cost and significant scale via Wood Harvesting and Storage (WHS), the secure burial of waste woody biomass. Dr. Zeng is the founder of the Carbon Lockdown Project and the world’s leading expert on this emergent CDR pathway.
This is CDR EP.44: Carbon Drawdown Initiative by Open Air
By OpenAir
In this episode of This Is CDR, OpenAir is pleased to welcome Carbon Drawdown Initiative Founder and CEO Dirk Paessler, and geologist Ingrid Smet to tell us about Project Carbdown, a long-term field enhanced rock weathering (ERW) field trial, with a focus on the Project's efforts to develop effective and practical measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) of ERW as a method of durable carbon removal.
CDR Horizons: PrISMa – A Platform to Accelerate DAC Sorbent Discovery
By OpenAir
In this episode of CDR Horizons Charles and Harsh welcome Professors Susana Garcia Lopez and Berend Smit of the PrISMa project, a collaborative, multi-disciplinary technology platform that aims to discover the best sorbent materials for capturing CO2 from any source - including the air. PrISMa's research scope for Direct Air Capture focuses on metal organic framework (MOF) sorbents, and the platform methodology combines expert screening with computer-assisted analysis to identify, synthesize, test and confirm the efficacy of MOFs for specific carbon capture and removal use cases and applications. To maximize real world impact the PrISMa tools are open-source and available to researchers anywhere in the world, operating within institutions or independently.
