Abstract Sepiolite and the sepiolite-based materials were studied in terms of carbon dioxide adsorption. The pore structure surface characterization obtained specified based on adsorption-desorption isotherms nitrogen measured at –196 o C 0 C. specific area (SSA) was calculated according to BET equation. volume estimated using DFT method. Pristine sepiolite has shown following value SSA CO 2 up...

Mixed-matrix membranes, MMM, have been a very popular research topic for many scientists in fields during the last few years. This work provides an overview of general properties, interesting structural components, potential applications, as well pitfalls and drawbacks preparation membranes this type. especially when combined with ionic liquids, IL, and/or organometallic frames, MOF, represent ...

In this paper, we examine the potential of carbon capture and sequestration technologies to make a significant contribution to national and global efforts to control carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. We examine the performance of these technologies under two alternative future energy-policy scenarios. We conclude that carbon capture and sequestration technologies could indeed play a significant r...

Any comprehensive approach to substantially reduce greenhouse gases must address the world's dependency on coal for a quarter of its energy demand, including almost half of its electricity demand. To maintain coal in the world's energy mix in a carbon-constrained future would require development of a technology to capture and store its carbon dioxide emissions. This situation suggests to some t...
