Immobilization of carbonic anhydrase on chitosan beads for enhanced carbonation reaction

Preparation of titania based biocatalytic nanoparticles and membranes for CO2conversion

“…Immobilized human CA on SBA-15 support 18 also exhibited a high level of CO2 hydration efficiency, in agreement with our current work. The comparison of the amount of CaCO3 precipitated by per microgram CA indicated our results were comparable or higher than literature values 18,36,41 .…”

A review of microbial precipitation for sustainable construction

“…Initial successful attempts of CO 2 sequestration by the aid of carbonic anhydrases were made by bovine carbonic anhydrases, which encouraged investigations from bacterial sources [86,108,116]. Microbially induced carbonate precipitation via carbonic anhydrase has offered the possibility of capturing CO 2 into safe, stable and environmentally benign carbonate reservoirs and a permanent method for disposing off CO 2 [93,94].…”

Comparison of amino and epoxy functionalized SBA-15 used for carbonic anhydrase immobilization

“…The major challenges in enzyme application are limited stability and the difficulties in recovery and reuse (12,13). The immobilization of the enzyme onto appropriate support materials is an attractive way to address those problems.…”

“…However, several practical problems such as high cost, limited stability, narrow pH range, and difficulties in recovery and reuse should be solved (13,14). One of the most attractive methods to address these problems is immobilization of enzyme onto porous silica supports (15).…”
