摘要 |
A lighter-than-water glass construction material containing embedded carbon dioxide bubbles is manufactured by concentrated reflective solar heating on mixture of sand, sodium bicarbonate, and limestone. The melt is allowed to solidify without permitting the carbon dioxide and water vapor to escape. The material is primarily used to build large size floating ponds for marine vegetation growth in an ammonium chloride fertilized seawater environment for atmospheric carbon dioxide capture via biomass photosynthesis sequestration.
