Developing optimum carbon dioxide capture nanomaterials via anion doping of MgO at room temperature

The use of solid adsorbents in industrial exhaust gases has shown to be a successful method of trapping concentrated CO2 for later storage rather than direct emission to the environment. MgO has a high theoretical CO2 capture capacity but it underperforms in practical applications due to a limiting number of active CO2 capture sites — MgO reacts with CO2 to create MgCO3 in dry, high-temperature circumstances. Our technology overcomes the limitation by anion doping of MgO-Mg(OH)2 at room temperature.
