Abstract
In this work, the potential of monohydrate Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) as a high capacity adsorbent for CO2 capture was investigated experimentally and theoretically. The effects of operating parameters, including temperature, pressure, LiOH particle size and LiOH loading, on the CO2 capture in a fixed-bed reactor have been experimentally explored using response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design. The optimum conditions obtained by the RSM for temperature, pressure, mesh and maximum adsorption capacity were calculated as 333 K, 4.72 bar, 200 micron and 559.39 mg/g, respectively. The experiments were evaluated using isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamic modeling. Isotherm modeling showed that Hill model could deliver a perfect fit to the experimental data, based on the closeness of the R2-value to unity. The kinetics models showed that the process was chemical adsorption and obeyed the second order model. In addition, thermodynamic analysis results showed that the CO2 adsorption was spontaneous and exothermic in nature. In addition, based on the density functional theory, we investigated the chemical stability of LiOH atomic clusters and examined the effects of LiOH nanonization on the physical attraction of carbon dioxide.

Abstract
The adoption of Li2CuO2 has drawn interest as a Li-excess cathode additive for compensating irreversible Li+ loss in anodes during cycling, which would move forward high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Li2CuO2 provides a high irreversible capacity (>200 mAh g-1) in the first cycle and an operating voltage comparable with commercial cathode materials, but its practical use is still restricted by the structural instability and spontaneous oxygen (O2) evolution, resulting in poor overall cycling performance. It is thus crucial to reinforce the structure of Li2CuO2 to make it more reliable as a cathode additive for charge compensation. Pursuing the structural stability of Li2CuO2, herein, we demonstrate cosubstitution by heteroatoms, such as nickel (Ni) and manganese (Mn), for improving the structural stability and electrochemical performance of Li2CuO2. Such an approach effectively enhances the reversibility of Li2CuO2 by suppressing continuous structural degradation and O2 gas evolution during cycling. Our findings provide new conceptual pathways for developing advanced cathode additives for high-energy LIBs.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide capture and mitigation form a key part of the technological response to combat climate change and reduce CO2 emissions. Solid materials capable of reversibly absorbing CO2 have been the focus of intense research for the past two decades, with promising stability and low energy costs to implement and operate compared to the more widely used liquid amines. In this review, we explore the fundamental aspects underpinning solid CO2 sorbents based on alkali and alkaline earth metal oxides operating at medium to high temperature: how their structure, chemical composition, and morphology impact their performance and long-term use. Various optimization strategies are outlined to improve upon the most promising materials, and we combine recent advances across disparate scientific disciplines, including materials discovery, synthesis, and in situ characterization, to present a coherent understanding of the mechanisms of CO2 absorption both at surfaces and within solid materials.

Abstract
Li2CuO2 and different iron-containing Li2CuO2 samples were synthesized by solid state reaction. On iron-containing samples, atomic sites of copper are substituted by iron ions in the lattice (XRD and Rietveld analyses). Iron addition induces copper release from Li2CuO2, which produce cationic vacancies and CuO, due to copper (Cu2+) and iron (Fe3+) valence differences. Two different physicochemical conditions were used for analyzing CO2 capture on these samples; (i) high temperature and (ii) low temperature in presence of water vapor. At high temperatures, iron addition increased CO2 chemisorption, due to structural and chemical variations on Li2CuO2. Kinetic analysis performed by first order reaction and Eyring models evidenced that iron addition on Li2CuO2 induced a faster CO2 chemisorption but a higher thermal dependence. Conversely, CO2 chemisorption at low temperature in water vapor presence practically did not vary by iron addition, although hydration and hydroxylation processes were enhanced. Moreover, under these physicochemical conditions the whole sorption process became slower on iron-containing samples, due to metal oxides presence.

Abstract
In this paper, lithium hexaoxotungstate (Li6WO6) nanowires were synthesized via facile solid-state reaction and were tested for CO2 capture applications at both low (<100 °C) and high temperatures (>700 °C). Under dry conditions, the nanowire materials were able to capture CO2 with a weight increment of 12% in only 60 s at an operating temperature of 710 °C. By contrast, under humidified ambience, Li6WO6 nanowires capture CO2 with weight increment of 7.6% at temperatures as low as 30-40 °C within a time-scale of 1 min. It was observed that the CO2 chemisorption in Li6WO6 is favored in the oxygen ambience at higher temperatures and in the presence of water vapor at lower temperatures. Nanowire morphology favors the swift lithium supply to the surface of lithium-rich Li6WO6, thereby enhancing the reaction kinetics and lowering time scales for high capacity adsorption. Overall, high chemisorption capacities, superfast reaction kinetics, wide range of operating temperatures, and reasonably good recyclability make 1-D Li6WO6 materials highly suitable for various CO2 capture applications.
