From the article:  
Engineers from the University of Delaware developed a method for effectively capturing 99 percent of carbon dioxide from the air using an electrochemical system powered by hydrogen, a press statement reveals.  
 
Aside from boosting the overall performance of carbon capture technology, the new method could also enable the commercial production of more sustainable fuel cells.
