Carbon Storage: Metal‐Organic Frameworks Reactivate Deceased Diatoms to be Efficient CO2 Absorbents (Adv. Mater. 8/2014)
Source abstract
Abstract
Diatomite, known as an absorbent for liquids for over a century, is now found to be an effective absorbent for CO2 gas via combination with different metal-organic frameworks, as described by D. Zhang, J.-J. Gu, and co-workers on page 1229. This finding has the potential to reactivate millions of tons of diatomite to active CO2 absorbents. It also suggests that the silica cell walls of diatoms may participate in the biological CO2 concentration process that impacts global-warming trends.
