Abstract

The CO2 adsorption capacity and dynamics of polyethyleneimine (PEI) functionalized on different substrates, i.e., mesoporous materials, nanotubes, microporous materials, polymers and membranes, were studied. CO2 capacity of PEI-functionalized mesoporous materials was higher than that of microporous materials. Moisture played an important role in the CO2 capture by PEI functionalized materials both from flue gas and ambient air. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the A&WMA's 109th Annual Conference & Exhibition (New Orleans, LA, 6/20-23/2016).
