Re: Potentially relevant new sorb technology

i was just interested in what it would cost to manufacture this sort of material. i was envisaging that you could have some small cartridge, possibly disposable. so i was looking around and found this comment. i just wonder if that would be compatible with a diving application.

from New CO2 Capturing Material Could Make Plants Cleaner | Wired Science from Wired.com

Quote:
ZIF-69 is like a carbon dioxide trap, allowing only CO2 in, while screening out molecules with different shapes. Under pressure, the compound allows the carbon dioxide in, but not back out. Then, when scientists decompress the material, the gas is released, allowing scientists to dump the captured CO2 into a storage system.
