Abstract
There is currently an increase in urbanization and deforestation causing an abrupt increase of CO2 in the atmosphere. This project focuses on reducing carbon emissions in an effort to mitigate the effects of climate change by utilizing a membrane biofilm reactor which diffuses the CO2 across the wall of the hollow fiber, its then reduced by the Au and biofilm, and absorbed by the Au on the fiber's outer surface.
