CO2 captureBerkeley

A metal-organic framework, or MOF , is capable of capturing CO2 at extreme temperatures.
The dominant method for capturing carbon from power or industrial plant emissions employs liquid amines to absorb CO2, but the reaction only works efficiently at temperatures between 40 and 60 C ( 100140 F) Cement manufacturing and steelmaking plants produce exhaust that exceeds 200 C ( 400 F ), and some industrial exhaust approaches 500 C ( 930 F).
The MOF studied by Rohde , Carsch , Long and their colleagues features pores decorated with zinc hydride sites.
These sites turned out to be surprisingly stable, Rohde said.
Once the MOF is filled with CO2, the CO2 can be removed, or desorbed, by lowering the partial pressure of CO2.
