CO2 capture using CaO-based materials
CO2 adsorption CaCO3 CO2 desorption CaO 400 - 600 ºC ~800 ºC
- High temperature required for regeneration
- Material movement is required, thus better
mechanical strength needed
- Still have challenges for the treatment of the
adsorbed CO2

Methanation of adsorbed CO2
Conclusions
- Porous structure is beneficial for CO2 capture
- CaO-based adsorbents have two temperature
windows for CO2 capture – 400 and 600 ºC
- Measured thickness of the CaCO3 layer is between
80 and 170 nm for the first stage fast adsorption
- Developing nano-CaO with dimension less than
the critical thickness will be promising. The sintering of CaO needs to be considered
- Integrate CO2 capture and utilisation could be
