What Are Some Common Catalysts Used in CO2 Capture?
Various catalysts are employed in CO2 capture processes:
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs): These porous materials have high surface areas favorable for CO2 adsorption. Zeolites: Microporous, aluminosilicate minerals effective in adsorbing CO2. Amine-based sorbents: Utilize chemical absorption to capture CO2 by forming stable carbamate compounds. Solid sorbents: Such as activated carbon and metal oxides, which can adsorb CO2 on their surfaces.
