Effect of Ultrasonic Pre-treatment on the Formation of DDR3 Zeolites as Adsorbent of Carbon Dioxide Capture

In the recent years, global concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has rapidly increased. The emission of carbon dioxide gives an impact on the global climate change. There are several commercially available process technologies which can be used for capturing CO2 such as amine absorption...
