A new take on carbon capture



Boston MA (SPX) Nov 26, 2025
If there was one thing Cameron Halliday SM '19, MBA '22, PhD '22 was exceptional at during the early days of his PhD at MIT, it was producing the same graph over and over again. Unfortunately for Halliday, the graph measured various materials' ability to absorb CO2 at high temperatures over time - and it always pointed down and to the right. That meant the materials lost their ability to capture the molecules responsible for warming our climate. At least Halliday wasn't alone: For many years, rese ... read more
