CHAPTER 4: Alkaline Ceramics-based High-temperature CO₂ Sorbents

This chapter contains a complete review of the CO₂ capture performed on different alkaline-ceramic-based sorbents (lithium- and sodium-containing ceramics). Initially, the text presents a general explanation about the capture process. Then, a complete review about the CO₂ capture of lithium- and sodium-containing ceramics is described, including a theoretical CO₂ capacity comparison and experimental temperature carbonation. Finally, some possible CO₂ conversion applications are described including carbon monoxide oxidation and subsequent carbon dioxide chemisorption as well as steam enhanced methane reforming processes.
