Materials and logistics for carbon dioxide capture, storage and utilization.

The efforts to curtail carbon dioxide presence in the atmosphere are a strong function of the available technologies to capture, store and usefully utilize it. Materials with adequate CO sorption kinetics that are both effective and economical are of prime importance for the whole capture system to be built around. This work identifies such materials that are currently used in CO adsorption beds/columns at different global locations, along with their vital operational parameters, logistics and costs.
