Description
Summary:Among numerous carbon capture technologies, adsorption is considered one of the most effective approaches to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the atmosphere. Various modification approaches of adsorbents have been introduced to enhance the CO2 adsorption ability. Recently, an amine such as tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) has been extensively used as an adsorbent's promoter because of its high amine density, low viscosity, low cost, and low toxicity properties. This has added an advantage to the adsorbent in terms of economical and environmentally benign. Therefore, it is important to provide the latest review on TEPA-functionalized adsorbents, specifically on the effects of TEPA functionalization, different TEPA loading, diverse adsorption conditions, as well as the structure of adsorbents towards the CO2 adsorption capacity. Different adsorption conditions over a wide range of adsorption temperatures were thoroughly discussed and several recommendations for future studies were also been proposed.
