Mechanosynthetic carbon dioxide splitting

CPK model of carbon dioxide

The application of atmospheric CO₂ removal (see: carbon dioxide collector unit) should give a strong incentive to make oxygen the next element of interest (after carbon and hydrogen) in the direct path research. Mechanosynthetic water splitting is needed too here.

Research needed: How needs the basic nine member diamondoid mechanosynthesis toolset be extended to be able to rip CO₂ apart (and use the oxygen then)?

(TODO: A detailed analysis of mechanosyntetic carbon dioxide splitting will be needed at some point. This reaction is of especial interest.)
