The Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) has made a breakthrough in creating clean energy<\/a><\/strong> . A research team has designed a power plant that captures carbon dioxide (CO\u2082)<\/strong> while producing electricity. This is important because CO\u2082<\/sub> is one of the main causes of climate change. <\/p>\n\n

How does this carbon dioxide capture technology work?<\/h2>\n\n

In a conventional gas-fired power plant<\/a><\/strong> , when the fuel is burned, CO\u2082 is released into the air, causing pollution. But with the technology developed by KIER<\/a><\/strong> , CO\u2082 is captured directly in the combustion process.<\/strong> To achieve this, instead of using air, special particles are used that help release and capture oxygen during combustion. This makes it easier for the CO\u2082 to be separated, without having to use other expensive machines. <\/p>\n\n

During more than 300 hours of testing, the system managed to capture 96% of the CO\u2082 produced<\/strong> \u2013 a world record. In addition, steam could also be produced, which helps to generate electricity efficiently. This achievement had not been achieved before in a large-scale plant. <\/p>\n\n

Why is this technology important?<\/h2>\n\n
    \n
  1. Less pollution: Thanks to this system, the emission of polluting gases is reduced.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Saving money: It is a cheaper way to capture CO\u2082 than current technologies.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Greater efficiency: This process can generate more electricity with less environmental impact.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    In the future, this breakthrough could help reduce emissions of polluting gases<\/a><\/strong> from power plants and contribute to a cleaner planet.<\/p>\n\n
