Ford wants to capture carbon dioxide and make plastic and foam
According to ford, it will use the capture of carbon to make plastic and foam, which will be used in models over the next five years. As carbon emissions regulations become more demanding, too much attention is paid to how to make engines more efficient. But the engine isn't the only environmentally unfriendly part of the car. The plastic and foam surrounding the car also damaged the environment during the manufacturing process. So ford is seeking to solve the problem by capturing carbon dioxide to make plastic and foam. The plan to capture carbon in processing plants to synthesize polymer for foam and plastics began in 2013. 50 percent of the polyols in ford's new bubble are carbon dioxide, meaning less oil is used in the process. Ford has plans to apply such a bubble to the seats and bottom of the car, saying it would save 272, 000 tons of oil a year. Ford is actively trying to improve the environment by reducing the use of fossil-made plastics and foam, said Debbie Mielewski, ford's senior technology director. And the exciting place of this technology is to help solve problems that it is almost impossible - climate change ", according to ford did they plan to increase use capture carbon manufacturing plastic and foam, in order to reduce the oil, and this kind of biological materials applied in the next five years to their cars.
