Abstract
High oxidation state metal cations in the form of oxides, oxoanions, or oxoperoxoanions have diverse roles in carbon dioxide removal (direct air capture and point source). Features include providing basic oxygens for chemisorption reactions, direct binding of carbonate, and catalyzing low-temperature CO2 release to regenerate capture media. Moreover, metal oxides and aqueous metal-oxo species are stable in harsh, point-source conditions. Here, we demonstrate aqueous niobium polyoxometalate (POM) carbon capture ability, specifically [Nb6O19]8-, Nb6. Upon exposure of aqueous Nb6 to CO2, Nb6 fragments and binds chemisorbed carbonate, evidenced by crystallization of Nb-carbonate POMs including [Nb22O53(CO3)16]28-and [Nb10O25(CO3)6]12-. While Rb/Cs+ counter cations yield crystal structures to understand the chemisorption processes, K+ counter cations enable higher capture efficiency (based on CO3/Nb ratio), determined by CHN analysis and thermogravimetry-mass spectrometry of the isolated solids. Sum frequency generation spectroscopy also showed higher carbon capture efficiency of the K-Nb6 solutions at the air-water interface, while small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) provided insights into the role of the alkalis in influencing these processes. Tetramethylammonium counter cations, like K+, demonstrate high efficiency of carbonate chemisorption at the interface, but SAXS and Raman of the bulk showed a predominance of a Nb24-POM (HxNb24O72, x ∼ 9) that does not bind carbonate. Control experiments show that carbonate detected at the interface is Nb-bound, and the Nb-carbonate species are stabilized by alkalis, demonstrating their supporting role in aqueous Nb-POM CO2 chemisorption. Of fundamental importance, this study presents rare examples of directing POM speciation with a gas, instead of liquid phase acid or base.

Numpilai T, Witoon T. Utilizing Gelatin Waste for Efficient Bimodal Porous Silica Adsorbents for Carbon Dioxide Capture. Chempluschem 2024; 89:e202300393. [PMID: 37933503 DOI: 10.1002/cplu.202300393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Revised: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 11/08/2023]
Abstract
This study explores the modification of pore structures in porous silica materials synthesized using sodium silicate and waste gelatin, under varying silica-to-gelatin ratios. At ratios of 1.0-1.5, bimodal porous silica with mesopores and macropores emerged due to spaces between silica nanoparticles and clusters, following gelatin elimination. The study further evaluated the obtained bimodal porous silica as polyethyleneimine (PEI) supports for CO2 capture, alongside PEI-loaded unimodal porous silica and hollow silica sphere for comparison. Notably, the PEI-loaded bimodal silica showcased superior CO2 uptake, achieving 145.6 mg g-1 at 90 °C. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed PEI's uniform distribution within the pores of bimodal silica, unlike the excessive surface layering seen in unimodal silica. Conversely, PEI completely filled the hollow porous silica's interior, extending gas molecule diffusion distance. All sorbents displayed nearly constant CO2 adsorption across 20 cycles, demonstrating outstanding stability. Notably, the bimodal porous silica displayed a negligible capacity loss, underscoring its robust performance.

Abstract
Hydrotalcite-like anionic clays (HTs) also known as Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been developed as multifunctional materials in numerous applications related to catalysis, adsorption, and ion-exchange processes. These materials constitute an important class of ionic lamellar solid clays of Brucite-like structure which comprise of consecutive layers of divalent and trivalent metal cations with charge balancing anions and water molecules in interlayer space. These materials have received increasing attention in research due to their interesting properties namely layered structure, ease of preparation, flexible tunability, ability to intercalate different types of anions, electronic properties, high thermal stability, high biocompatibility, and easy biodegradation. Moreover, HTs/LDHs have unique tailorable and tuneable characteristics such as both acidic and basic sites, anion exchange capability, surface area, basal spacing, memory effect, and also exhibit high exchange capacities, which makes them versatile materials for a wide range of applications and extended their horizons to diverse areas of science and technology. This study enlightens the various rational researches related to the synthetic methods and features focusing on synthesis and/or fabrication with other hybrids and their applications. The diverse applications (namely catalyst, adsorbent to toxic chemicals, agrochemicals management, non-toxic flame retardants, and recycling of plastics) of these multifunctional materials related to a clean and sustainable environment were also summarized.

Abstract
Among several known zeolites, silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO)-34 zeolite exhibits a distinct chemical structure, unique pore size distribution, and chemical, thermal, and ion exchange capabilities, which have recently attracted considerable research attention. Global carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emissions are a serious environmental issue. Current atmospheric CO2 level exceeds 414 parts per million (ppm), which greatly influences humans, fauna, flora, and the ecosystem as a whole. Zeolites play a vital role in CO2 removal, recycling, and utilization. This review summarizes the properties of the SAPO-34 zeolite and its role in CO2 capture and separation from air and natural gas. In addition, due to their high thermal stability and catalytic nature, CO2 conversions into valuable products over single metal, bi-metallic, and tri-metallic catalysts and their oxides supported on SAPO-34 were also summarized. Considering these accomplishments, substantial problems related to SAPO-34 are discussed, and future recommendations are offered in detail to predict how SAPO-34 could be employed for greenhouse gas mitigation.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) can play an important role in various areas, but conventional LDHs synthesis often causes product agglomeration and generates plenty of high-salt wastewater, and requires a time-consuming aging process to reach the desired purity and crystalline state. Herein, we report the synthesis of MgAl-LDH, a representative of these kinds of ionic lamellar inorganic solids, with a novel method involving the reaction of magnesium oxide (MgO) with aluminate ions (Al(OH)4-) in a strongly alkaline environment. The formation of MgAl-LDH follows a mechanism of interfacial dissolution-reprecipitation (IDR), i.e., Mg2+ ions released at the interface of dissolved MgO react immediately with Al(OH)4- ions to reprecipitate as MgAl-LDH. The obtained MgAl-LDH has no impurity phases and shows high crystallinity, high specific surface area, and a narrow particle size distribution. Moreover, MgAl-LDH is intercalated with OH- anions, so it can be directly used as a Brønsted base catalyst and ion exchanger. The novel method requires no time-consuming aging process and is highly scalable. It is also shown that a closed-loop synthesis of MgAl-LDH without waste discharge can be achieved with an appropriate Al source, e.g., Al(OH)3, and a recycled NaOH solution.

Abstract
Adsorption using carbonaceous materials has been considered as the prevailing technology for CO2 capture because it offers advantages such as high adsorption capacity, durability, and economic benefits. Activated carbon (AC) has been widely used as an adsorbent for CO2 capture. We investigated CO2 adsorption behaviors of magnesium oxide-coated AC (MgO-AC) as a function of MgO content. The microstructure and textural properties of MgO-AC were characterized by X-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms at 77 K, respectively. The CO2 adsorption behaviors of MgO-AC were evaluated at 298 K and 1 atm. Our experimental results revealed that the presence of MgO plays a key role in increasing the CO2 uptake through the interaction between an acidic adsorbate (e+) and an efficient basic adsorbent (e−).
