Post-Combustion Capture of Carbon Dioxide by Natural and Synthetic Organic Polymers

The elevation of carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere is responsible for global warming which turn causes abrupt climate change and consequently poses a threat to living organisms coming years. To reduce CO2 content capture separation highly necessary. Among various methods post-combustion very much useful because its operational simplicity applicability many industries power sectors, such as coal-fired plants. Polymers with high surface area, volume narrow pores are ideal solid sorbents adsorption-driven capture. Natural polymers, polysaccharides cheap, abundant, can be modified by produce porous materials thus effectively utilized while area pore size synthetic organic polymers tuned precisely capturing capacity. A significant amount research activities has already been established this field, especially last ten years still progress. In review, we have introduced latest developments readers about techniques, post-synthetic modifications capacities biopolymer-based (POPs) published five (2018–2022). This review will beneficial researchers design smart polymer-based overcome existing challenges storage/sequestration.
