HARROW: In what can be called a ground breaking invention, researchers across some major universities in the world including Queens University Belfast in UK, University of Liverpool and their international partners developed a new type of liquid that can dissolve unusually large quantities of gas. The first application for such a liquid that comes to mind immediately after its discovery is to filter carbon emissions and thereby preventing further harm to the environment. This invention could be a huge step towards controlling the current pollution levels and preventing the effects of global warming from reaching unimaginable heights.

The research, when fully concluded could pave the way for many more efficient and environment friendly chemical processes, including the capture of carbon dioxide from major sources, including power plants  that use fossil fuels, and storing it to prevent its entry into the atmosphere.
