Microalgae is an excellent type of biomass for bio-energy production due to its high calorific value and fast growth. However, a large amount of ash would be generated during microalgae utilization. In this work, MCM41 was prepared from microalgae ash. The materials were calcined at different temperatures (450 C, 500 C, 550 C, and 600 C), and the effect of calcination temperature was investigated. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) was loaded in MCM41 by the impregnation method at different loading amounts (30%, 40%, 50%, and 60%). The CO 2 capturing capacity was measured. The results showed that the
