Worldwide energy production requirements could not be fully satisfied by nuclear and renewables sources. Therefore a sustainable use of fossil fuels (coal in particular) will be required for several decades. In this scenario, carbon capture and storage (CCS) represents a key solution to control...

CO2 sorption capacities and physical properties of the MgO-based sorbent, and the effect of steam during the sorbent regeneration were studied. Four MgO-based dry regenerable sorbents (P-A ∼ D) were prepared by spray drying method for the application to pre-combustion CO2 capture. Physical...
