Design of a Magnesium Microstructured Biohybrid Material for Practical Atmospheric CO₂ Mitigation.

ABSTRACT: The rising levels of greenhouse gases such as CO₂ pose critical challenges for climate stability and indoor air quality. Here, we report the design and synthesis of a magnesium-based microstructured biohybrid (MicroMg) using a mild, enzyme-assisted process at room temperature and neutral pH. MicroMg consists of well-defined Mg₃(PO₄)₂ microstructures stabilized by a lipase scaffold, exhibiting high structural integrity and crystallinity. In aqueous media, MicroMg efficiently converts CO₂ into mainly bicarbonate under ambient conditions, achieving complete conversion of aqueous CO₂ within 30 min (TOF value of 16 h^-1) and demonstrating structural stability over repeated reactions. When this was incorporated into pain
