Professor Gaurav Sant was recently mentioned in an article by the Daily Beast titled “How to Weaponize Our Dying Oceans Against Climate Change”
From the article:
Another proposal for using the ocean as a sponge for carbon involves inducing electrolysis (splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen) to remove carbon dioxide from the water and locking it up within mineral salts called carbonates. Gaurav Sant, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the University of California, Los Angeles is going to test out such a method in a new startup project called SeaChange.
