Scientists at Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) in New Mexico , New Mexico have created CO2Memzyme, an enzyme-based fabric that dissolves CO2 in water 10 million times faster than any other method. But the membrane is still only a laboratory experiment. Rempe , a research professor in biological engineering at Sandia National Laboratories said if applied to a "single coal-fired power plant" it would be the same as planting 63 million trees "and letting them grow for 10 years . " The fabric is 10 times thinner than a soap bubble and dissolves CO2 at a cost of $ $40 per tonne. However, CO2Memzyme is still being tested and is not ready for commercial use.
