Share Lead researcher UC Civil Engineering Associate Professor Allan Scott, and his team in the United States, United Kingdom and New Zealand, have found a new low-carbon method to produce the common mineral, magnesium hydroxide or Mg(OH) 2. Associate Professor Scott explains magnesium hydroxide has been widely recognised as one of the most promising materials for ‘carbon mineralization’ (where carbon dioxide or CO₂ is prevented from entering the atmosphere), but until now there hasn’t been an energy-efficient way of producing it. “Most processes to get magnesium hydroxide typically involve CO₂ emissions. We are proposing a new method to produce magnesium hydroxide from olivine; an abundant mineral here in New Zealand and around the world. Our method uses existing technology, produces useful by-products and most importantly there’s low to zero CO₂ emitted during the process.” ....

A rare “smoke ring” has been captured blowing from Guatemala’s Fuego volcano, an active stratovolcano 15 km west of the city of Antigua. Matthew Watson, a professor of volcanoes and climate at the University of Bristol, shared a photo of the sighting on Twitter as part of a virtual “field trip” he is conducting online after having a real-life trip to Guatemala cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. “What a stunning looking volcano,” he wrote. ....
