Description: The purpose of this study is to utilize information and data gathered from previous studies pertaining to the BioRock® method, patented by Dr. W. Hibertz and T.J. Goreau in 1974. Biorock® stimulates the growth of coral reefs utilizing natural reef processes and electrochemistry to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Our aim is to make the process more efficient to achieve large scale atmospheric… more
