To dissociate carbon from CO2, laser routes are being investigated. Hopefully there is enough data to engineer a high speed plasma route. The current laser routes are, vacuum ultra violet light and ultra violet light at high pressures. From the studies, CO2 dissociates with working parameters of high pressure and temperature and laser wavelength which are unfortunately still outside commodity hardware. Project Open NanoCarbon will be conducting experiments on rotating laser light in order to raise the wavelength to a non ultra high pressure environment.
A metastudy will also be conducted to determine the range of working parameters of the energy needed to dissociate: pressure, temperature, wavelength, molecular resonance state.
