A research team led by Yin Zhenyuan at Tsinghua University Shenzhen International Graduate School has developed a novel technology for capturing and locking carbon dioxide on the ocean floor.1 The breakthrough addresses a critical challenge in underwater carbon storage by significantly accelerating the formation of CO2 hydrate, a solid crystalline structure that traps carbon and prevents leakage.1
The innovation centers on the use of alkyl polyglycoside (APG), an environmentally friendly surfactant, which disperses liquid CO2 into micrometer-sized droplets through high-speed agitation.1 This process creates a stable water-in-CO2 emulsion that dramatically increases the contact surface area between CO2 and seawater, thereby enhancing both the generation rate and conversion efficiency of CO2 hydrates.1 By improving interfacial mass transfer in seawater—a previously limiting factor—the technology enables faster hydrate layer formation on the seafloor, substantially reducing the risk of CO2 leakage during underwater storage.1
The research, conducted by first author Sun Jiayao, a 2024 graduate student, and corresponding author Yin Zhenyuan, has been published in the journal Carbon Capture Science & Technology.1 The project received support from multiple institutions, including the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Ministry of Science and Technology's Foreign Experts Program, Guangdong Province's Department of Natural Resources, and Shenzhen's Department of Science and Technology Innovation.1
