Evaluation of CaO derived from Cerastoderma glaucum of Caspian beach as a natural sorbent for CO2 capture

open access: yesCurrent Research in Green and Sustainable Chemistry, 2023
In this work, Cerastoderma Glaucum (CG) as a bio-sorbent, a low-cost, and nontoxic material, was investigated for CO2 capture. The analysis of CaO from CG was carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier ...
