This paper presents an experimental study that separates the constituents of carbon (iv) oxide (CO2) and obtain solid carbon using water. Across the globe, Climate change has been recognized as a major issue that poses an existential threat to all life forms. The current method of reducing the effect of climate change is through the Carbon Capture Utilization and Sequestration (CCUS) method which is very costly and complex. Hence, there is need for an effective, simple and less expensive method that can separate the constituents of carbon dioxide and obtain carbon in a solid form.
Stage of Innovation: Prototype (You have a working physical product)
Problem:
I intend solving climate change and it's Challenges
Unique Selling Point: The current method been used is the CCUS method which captures CO2 and stores it in gaseous form in airtight container where as our solution captures CO2 and sepérate them into their different constituents there by keeping carbon in it's solid state using water as a key component
