Researchers successfully capture the first images of carbon dioxide emissions in aircraft engine

Posted in energy, transportation

Capturing combustion on a large scale is now possible.

The first cross-sectional photos of carbon dioxide in a jet engine exhaust plume were taken by researchers using brand-new near-infrared light imaging technology.

The research was published in Applied Optics’ 28th issue.
