Many researchers and organizations agree that carbon capture and storage (CCS) is likely necessary to limit atmospheric CO2 emissions, with carbon dioxide storage from biomass (BECCS) appearing particularly promising when it comes to the cost profile. However, CCS and BECCS are associated with a significant energy use, especially during the CO2 capturing processes. In our research environment, we study aminated colloid dispersions and find motivation by this challenge. We envision that these dispersions would combine the practical benefits of the current scrubbing methods with the potential for energy efficiency when it comes to the use of CO2 adsorbents and swing-sorption processes. This presentation will revolve around initial results for aminated nanometric and solid particles, alongside slightly larger and porous aminated particles. All particles are based on aminated silica or organosilica and the porous ones are mesostructured. Additionally, the potential of using carbonic anhydrase to accelerate the reaction kinetics of amine-CO2 chemistry will be discussed.
