A reactor for climate change and other Worlds.

This is a possible hope against the problem of greenhouse gases, researchers from the University of Cambridge have created this solar-powered reactor that captures CO2 or carbon dioxide to produce sustainable fuel or plain fuel. Unlike most carbon capture technologies, this reactor does not require external energy, of course it does not require energy based on fossil fuels, because then it would be the "chickens that come in because they come out", nor does it need to be transported, because it does not need to be huge, although it can be built in different sizes and it does not need cables or external complications, it works with the sunlight it captures. The results were published on February 13 in the journal nature Energy. It is a flow reactor device, it does not use any external power source or cables or batteries as I told you before, the only thing it needs is the energy of the Sun and obviously the air to capture the CO2, what it would do is use specialized filters to capture the CO2 during the night, it would do it like a sponge that absorbs water when the sun rises, sunlight heats the captured CO2 by absorbing infrared radiation and a semiconductor powder that These researchers have developed absorb ultraviolet radiation to start a chemical reaction that converts the captured CO2 into a solar synthesis gas.

To make it more efficient, they have also created a mirror that concentrates sunlight, which makes the process more efficient and more practical, it is the mirror that concentrates sunlight without solar panels, it is the mirror that concentrates sunlight on those sponges and on that dust and on that system that they have created, that silver would be the mirror. Researchers say that it can be used to generate fuel in remote places or off the electrical grid, even this reactor aside from the issue of CO2 and greenhouse gases here on Earth, this reactor can be used on Mars to obtain fuel or other chemicals since the Martian atmosphere is basically composed of CO2.

For example, Elon Muck would love this reactor and there is also another place where it could be used where there is even much more CO2 on Venus, it could be used to capture CO2 and obtain fuel because there are mission projects to Venus to create airships that remain permanently in the Venusian atmosphere and study Venus from there. From that height, on Venus from 50 km high you have an atmospheric layer that has a density similar to that of the Earth's atmosphere, the temperatures at that height are about Approximately 30 degrees and you would not have the problem of sulfuric acid rain because that is much lower. So you could be calmly in your airship at 50 km high, the gravity is practically the same as that of the earth, it is a bit less, you could calmly be there with a very pleasant temperature and without any problem, the only problem is that of course it does not have a protective magnetic field and the solar radiation it would not be very advisable to sunbathe go out sunbathe, it would not be advisable and you do not have oxygen either, but by decomposing the atmospheric gases you could obtain oxygen and with this system you could obtain fuel. It would be good to install it on gasoline cars so that they stop emitting CO2.
