" … could lead to cleaner energy, including technology that factories and cars can use to capture carbon dioxide before it reaches the atmosphere."<\/p>\n

" … invented a class of materials called metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), sometimes described as crystal sponges … openings on the nanoscale … which … can store gases that are usually difficult to store and transport. …"<\/p>\n
