A Low Cost and Sustainable Method to Mitigate Carbon Dioxide
Shrinivas Sharangpani
Abstract: The escalating impact of fossil fuel usage on global warming has led to dire environmental consequences, including erratic weather patterns, floods, cyclones, and rising temperatures. While electric vehicles EVs have emerged as a promising alternative, their effectiveness in reducing carbon emissions is often overstated, as a significant portion of electric power is generated from fossil fuels. This paper presents a novel, low-cost, and sustainable method for mitigating carbon dioxide emissions in fossil fuel power plants. By employing chemical reactions involving Potassium Manganate and Potassium Permanganate, this process efficiently absorbs carbon dioxide while producing reusable chemicals. This self-sustaining approach not only reduces wastage but also offers a practical solution for fossil fuel-based power plants to significantly reduce their carbon footprint, making a substantial contribution to global greenhouse gas reduction efforts. The scalability and potential impact of this method underscore its relevance in combating climate change in fossil fuel-dependent regions worldwide.
