I heard a recent story on NPR about a pilot project capturing CO2 emissions from a coal plant in China. For those Reedies and HMC students that read the paper on the MOF for potential CO2 capture, this reminded me of some of the discussions we had within “our bubble” about how practical or effective CO2 capture would really be. What ultimately depressed me about this story was that less than 1% of the CO2 emissions were captured from this power plant. I guess it is only a pilot project.
