It's one of the latest technologies for sequestering carbon: crush silicate rocks, add to crop soil, and let the rock dust ...

Dan Prevost grows corn, soybeans and cotton on about a thousand acres of farmland near the central Mississippi town of Raymond. Because the soil tends to get too acidic with the Deep South's heavy ...

Climate tech startup Silicate is set to undertake the first trial of its enhanced weathering technology, which aims to remove C02 permanently from the atmosphere and lock it in the world’s oceans for ...

Natural rock weathering is a fundamental part of Earth’s carbon cycle but occurs over thousands of years. Enhancing this cycle by spreading fine volcanic rock on agricultural land is a form of ...

Irish startup Silicate is poised to launch its first U.S. trial of advanced carbon removal techniques. The Sligo-headquartered firm asserts it possesses state-of-the-art technology capable of ...

The chemical weathering of continental silicate rocks by bicarbonate and rainwater leads to dissolution of silicate rocks and their constituents into rivers and streams. As these silicate rocks ...

Until now, the slow weathering of silicate rocks has been considered as the main factor in climate regulation. In this system, rain takes up carbon dioxide (CO 2) from the atmosphere, falls on exposed ...

Discover how adding crushed silicate rocks to crop soils could improve the global carbon footprint of the farming industry.
