Researchers have developed a new catalyst that can convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) into carbon monoxide (CO) by utilizing vibrations. This innovative approach not only addresses CO₂ emissions but also creates a valuable product from waste gases, potentially transforming carbon capture technologies. The findings could have significant implications for energy production and climate change mitigation.
