Article Synopsis
  • Lithium silicates, especially lithium orthosilicate (LiSiO), are being explored as effective sorbents for capturing CO at high temperatures (450-700 °C), with LiSiO having the potential to adsorb significant amounts of CO.
  • The study investigates the structural, electronic, and thermodynamic properties of LiSiO and a binary eutectic mixture (LiNaSiO) using advanced theoretical methods, revealing strong CO adsorption through chemisorption.
  • Results indicate that CO significantly alters both the chemical structure of the gas and the characteristics of the lithium silicate surfaces, suggesting that these materials are promising candidates for CO capture across a wide range of temperatures.
