Electroswing Tech: Batteries That Absorb Carbon? | Cornell Energy Systems Institute

A cross-section of an electroswing adsorber, which is essentially an electrochemical cell — that is, a battery. The battery has two active (negative) electrodes on the outside and a positive (counter) electrode in the middle (red). When electricity runs into the battery, the active layers, which are covered with quinone, collect CO2 from the surrounding air.Sahag Voskian/MIT
