Researchers present new, lower-cost materials to facilitate moisture-swing to catch and then release CO2 depending on the local air's moisture content.

Moisture-swing direct air capture ( DAC ) will be central to global strategies to combat climate change.

Aluminium oxide and activated carbon had the fastest kinetics, while the iron oxide and nanostructured graphite captured the most CO2.

The team assessed why ion exchange resins worked so well at facilitating capture.

Ideal pore size and presence of negatively charged ion groups on surfaces that carbon dioxide can attach to.

The team plans to increase their understanding of the new materials' life cycles that includes both overall cost and energy use of the platform.
