"industrial polyamine gel absorbs CO2,, skeleton 2D boron nitrate generates positive (large size) and negative (smaller) ions moving at different speeds, generating diffusion current amplified into electricity to power light bulbs or any electronic device... ion transportation more efficient than electron transportation... embedded in 90% water hydrogel cut into 4-cm disks and small rectangles used in small box pumped full of CO2"
