Offshore Mobile Platform for Electrochemical Ocean Iron Fertilization & Hydrogen Gas Generation
­An environmentally friendly and cost-effective solution to control global warming Institute Reference: INV-22035 Background The ocean is considered a large sink of atmospheric CO2 since it can uptake 25% of the emitted CO2 by human activities. Ocean iron fertilization (OIF) is one of the several proposed methods to sequestrate atmospheric CO2...
