  • Method and apparatus for CO2 sequestration
    Patent number: 10920249
    Abstract: Processes, methods, and apparatus for carbon sequestration utilizing catalysis schemes configured to provide high concentrations of hydrated CO2 in proximity with a sequestration agent are provided. Reactants are combined with catalyst such that at least two regions of controlled catalytic activity form encompassing at least the interface between a sequestration agent and an aqueous solution containing dissolved CO2. Suitable reactants include various sequestration agents, catalyst, and carbon dioxide dissolved in an aqueous solution (seawater, for example). Possible products include bicarbonate and metal cations.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 1, 2018
    Date of Patent: February 16, 2021
    Assignees: California Institute of Technology, University of Southern California, Yissum Research Development Company of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem Ltd.
    Inventors: Adam Vinay Subhas, William Max Berelson, Nick Everett Rollins, Jess Firey Adkins, Jonathan Erez
