Devices, facilities, methods and compositions for carbon dioxide capture, sequestration and utilization

Abstract

Disclosed herein are carbon dioxide capture devices, facilities, methods, and compositions. Specifically disclosed herein are devices, facilities, compositions and methods to capture carbon dioxide from the Earth's atmospheric air for providing long-term sequestration of the captured carbon and/or utilization thereof. To this end, a carbon dioxide capture device configured in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present invention can comprise a coating substrate having at least one coatable surface and a carbon dioxide capture coating composition on a coatable surface of the coating substrate. The carbon dioxide capture coating composition preferably comprises a coating material and a photosynthetic organism, wherein the photosynthetic organism is at least one of admixed within the coating material and on an exposed surface of the coating material. The coating material can deliver all or a portion of water to the photosynthetic organism necessary for sustaining photosynthetic activity of the photosynthetic organism.
