Original title: New Technology: Capturing Carbon Dioxide Directly from the Air for Beer
The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, Australia's national scientific agency, spoke about a new technology called Airthena at a press conference this week. "Airthena uses a tiny sponge called a metal-organic skeleton (MOFs) to capture carbon dioxide directly from the air and can scale up for commercial production," the CSIRO said.
Airthena technology opens up the possibility of small-scale production of carbon dioxide on site. This may be useful for everything from beverage carbonation (beer) to greenhouses. This innovation may provide a low-cost alternative to the production and transport of carbon dioxide using existing methods.
, however, this technology will not solve our growing greenhouse gas problem. "While airthena's size will not have any direct impact on reducing global CO2 emissions, it will help companies gain a more reliable source of natural gas in their day-to-day operations while reducing their carbon footprint," CSIRO said. Aaron Thornton
project leader at csiRO, said Airthena's next step was to reduce the cost of using the device on a small scale and test it to meet food quality standards. CSIRO is also interested in expanding the technology into larger areas of business.
if a brewery eventually adopts Airthena, it will offer some excellent possibilities for beer names, such as air beer, greenhouse beer, etc.
