The aim of this work is to make a brief review of the adsorption of CO2 on modified clay minerals. Previous researchers have used different clay modifications, either by making changes in the structure by a reaction with another product or by the addition of a catalyst to improve their CO2 adsorption capacity. In order to obtain high values of CO2 uptake, some researchers have been incorporated amines-speices such as (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES), tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) and a branched polyethylenimine (PEI) by grafting or impregnation. The synthesis of an adsorbent from mineral clays can generate an increase in its porosity and in its textural properties. These investigations differ in a number of factors such as the kind of clay, the operating conditions, y and the nature of the impregnated compound. The role of these factors in the CO2 adsorption capacity will be considered in detail in this review.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
