Abstract

A structure and system for the adsorption of carbon dioxide from air, the system comprising a sorbent structure comprising a porous substrate having a porous alumina coating on the surfaces of said substrate, and the sorbent for carbon dioxide is embedded on the surfaces of said porous alumina coating. The substrate is preferably a porous monolith, formed from silica or mesocellular foam. The sorbent is an amine group-containing material, preferably loaded at 40 to 60 percent by volume relative to the porous alumina coating.

Claims (6)

1 . A system for the adsorption of carbon dioxide from air, the system comprising a sorbent structure comprising a substrate having an alumina coating on the surfaces of said substrate and sorbent for carbon dioxide embedded on said alumina coating.

2 . A sorbent structure comprising a substrate having an alumina coating on the surfaces of said substrate and sorbent embedded on said alumina coating.

3 . The sorbent structure of claim 2 wherein said substrate is a monolith.

4 . The sorbent structure of claim 3 wherein said monolith is silica or mesocellular foam.

5 . The sorbent structure of claim 2 wherein said sorbent is an amine group-containing material.

6 . The sorbent structure of claim 5 wherein said amine-group containing material is loaded at 40 to 60 percent by volume relative to the alumina coating.
