Abstract

Human activities have led to increasing CO2 emissions, mainly coming from factories and plants. The increasing concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmospheric environment has become a severe concern of the world due to the existing and potential consequences. Different carbon capture technologies have been developed and used to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. In addition, carbon capture can also solve certain environmental pollution problems, by directly reducing CO2 discharge from anthropogenic sources. The research focuses on carbon capture techniques and corresponding materials (sorbents). The current situations are stated and the significance of carbon capture is enhanced, while also giving brief introductions on several sorbents. The amine method, which is conventional and the most frequently used, is discussed first. Afterwards, porous materials including zeolites, activated carbons (AC) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are discussed, mainly focusing on the sorption mechanism, advantages, drawbacks and possible corresponding solutions, specific examples and outlook. These porous materials hold great potential as solid adsorbents for carbon capture, likely replacing conventional amines in the future. Further improvements and evaluations will enable porous materials to be used in industrial applications.
