With the aim to capture and subsequent selective trapping of CO2, a nanocomposite has been developed through selective modification of the outer surface of the halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) with an organosilane to make the nanocomposite a novel solid-phase adsorbent to adsorb CO2 from the atmosphere at standard ambient temperature and pressure. The preferential adsorption of three major abundant ...

Reducing the CO2 levels in the atmosphere is one of the emerging challenges for human society. It is commonly accepted that CO2, as a greenhouse gas, is partly responsible for climate changes. It is thus important to reduce those CO2 levels in every possible way. This can be achieved in different manners, for example by decreasing CO2 emission by developing energy efficient processes with a red...

In this work, we report on a novel sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-assisted magnesium oxide (MgO)-based porous adsorbent synthesized by hydrothermal method for intermediate CO2 capture. For industrial MgO, its CO2 adsorption capacity is normally less than 0.06 mmol g−1, with a specific surface area as low as 25.1 m2 g−1. Herein, leaf-like MgO nanosheets which exhibited a disordered layer structure...

Abstract Due to the annual increase in CO 2 emissions, climate change continues progress. In order achieve goals set Paris Climate Agreement, capturing measures are necessary addition reduction carbon dioxide emissions. This review article describes and discusses methods published last 20 years. Processes for absorption, gas–solid reaction, adsorption, cryogenic processes, membrane processes ca...

Within Earth’s surface, there are billions of tons rocks containing minerals that reactive with CO 2 , which is a greenhouse gas has harmful effects on our planet’s climate. Over thousands years, these interact the in air, converting into new carbonate and permanently storing solid form. Today, as society develops solutions to combat excess atmosphere, processes carried out by could present val...

This paper is the first of a series that attempts to assess the possible health and safety risks associated with large scale CO2 sequestration in deep brine reservoirs. The approach is based on analysis of available data on the operational track record from CO2 transportation and injection associated with enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) in the US. This paper is particularly concerned with ident...
