TiO(OH)2 – highly effective catalysts for optimizing CO2 desorption kinetics reducing CO2 capture cost: A new pathway

Abstract The objective is to find a new pathway for significant reduction in CO2 capture energy consumption. Specifically, nanoporous TiO(OH)2 was used to realize the objective, which was desired as a catalyst to significantly accelerate the decomposition of aqueous NaHCO3, essentially CO2 desorptio...
