Nanocomposite material like advanced sorbent materials for carbon dioxide capture

Abstract

In this work carbonized rice husk was used as carbon-based solid matrix in the preparation of composite materials modified with Fe3O4 particles. Aim of this study is to exploit the advantages and shortcomings of using a real biomass as starting material for the preparation of sorbents for CO2 capture applications. Sorption capacity of the obtained composite materials was tested on fixed-bed microreactor.
