The new green genius turns carbon into fuel.
Things like carbon nanotubes that have small carbon "hair" can be used to clean exhaust gas. The surface area of the reaction determines the filter's ability to remove carbon from the exhaust gas. The system bases the carbon reduction. The simpler version is to use carbon filters that separate carbon from aromatic hydrocarbons and CO2 emissions. The carbon filter system is commonly used in gas masks whose mission is to remove carbon from the poisonous gas.
The active carbon filters are simple and effective tools. But the problem is where the system puts that carbon. The most effective thing would be pressure- an electromagnetic system that can turn the carbon into diamonds or carbonite crystals. The system requires lots of energy, and that makes it ineffective. The idea is that the system turns the carbon into the form, where it cannot fly away. If the system can turn carbon waste into a big bite, it cannot fly into the atmosphere. In some solutions, the carbon from CO2 emission will turn into fuel.
"A breakthrough by MIT and Harvard scientists allows efficient conversion of carbon dioxide into stable, safe formate, potentially replacing fossil fuels and suitable for long-term storage and electricity generation."

The simple idea is to make the atomic carbon react with hydrogen. That thing creates ethylene. Ethylene itself is a high-inflammable hydrocarbon that can be used as fuel. But the problem again is carbon emission. It's possible to create the systems that are removing carbon from the exhaust gasses and those filters can be changed. But the problem of transforming CO2 emission into fuel consists of the problem.
The system must put carbon somewhere. There is the possibility to make closed-cycle diesels that recycle the CO2 through the active carbon filters that remove the carbon from the exhaust gas. That system makes it possible to create emission-free engines. But the system must put the carbon into some place. And also the system must break the benzene-ring from the aromatic hydrocarbons. And the lasers or some laser-acoustic combinations can be effective.
But that system drives CO2 emission to the chamber where the carbon will reduced by using electromagnetic or some acoustic systems. In an acoustic system, the system gives a soundwave that makes the carbon-oxygen combination oscillate. Then the IR radiation breaks the chemical bond. Then the carbon will be driven to the layer and the pressure impulse pushes it to the form of the carbonite crystal. In some other versions of the chamber the carbon wires there is carbon hair, and then those rotating wires will tie carbon into their structure.
