- MONTREAL and QUEBEC, June 8, 2021 /CNW Telbec/ - Aluminum plays a thus-far unsuspected role in carbon dioxide (CO2) capture on the ocean floor.
- We were able to show for the first time that aluminum would have a positive effect on CO2 storage!"
- The research team showed that the presence of moderate concentrations of aluminum increased phytoplankton's CO2 fixation.
- It is possible to imagine a systematic measurement of aluminum deposition to the ocean surface," said Dr. Fortin.
