Solid Adsorbents for CO2 Capture and Utilisation

Recently, Indian scientists have discovered a novel strategy to synthesize novel solid adsorbents for CO2 capture and utilization.

Context

• Carbon capture and utilization are growing fields of research focusing on reducing CO2 emissions. Despite several industrial advancements having been already demonstrated, none of the technologies can provide an economically viable and complete CO2 capture and utilization solution. Therefore, fundamental research on novel solid adsorbents might offer a critical material for CO2 capture and utilization.

The Research

• The team of scientists at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER-Kolkata) with support from Department ....
