'Dried water' is a term that contains a contradiction, but in fact a British scientist has created such substance.

Telegraph said dry water was the invention of Dr Ben Carter, a researcher at the University of Liverpool in England. He announced the invention at the 240th National Conference of the American Chemical Society in Boston, USA. Dried water is like sugar beads, and its birth can be a revolution in the field of chemistry.

Each dry water element consists of a drop of water surrounded by a silicon dioxide (SiO2) shell. In fact, liquid water accounts for 95% of the dry matter content.

Many scientists believe that dry water can be a weapon in the fight against climate change, because it can absorb and trap carbon dioxide, one of the greenhouse gases. . Tests show that it absorbs more than three times more CO2 than normal water.

Dried water can also trap methane (CH4) and can become a potential source of gas.
