Researchers at the University of South Florida and
King Abdullah University of Science and Technology have used
exquisitely detailed molecular simulations on Pittsburgh
Supercomputing Center's Blacklight computer to develop a candidate
material for capturing carbon dioxide. The new material could
eventually lead to ways of "scrubbing" the greenhouse gas from
smokestacks or car exhaust pipes.
