ABSTRACT

Carbon dioxide was selected for the adsorption study, because this molecule is a good probe to study adsorption on microporous materials, given that it is an excellent tool for the measurement of the micropore volume and adsorption interactions. Iron oxides, oxide hydroxides, and hydroxides are common compounds. These are some of the most important materials on earth because of their magnetic, catalytic, and adsorption properties. Adsorption is not only a very important industrial process but also a powerful methodology for the characterization of the surface of materials. Adsorption on nanoporous materials is an excellent method for the separation and recovery of gases. In this regard, the interaction of carbon dioxide with the surface of a group of well-characterized sphere and particle packing and ordered amorphousand crystalline microporous molecular sieve silica is discussed here, with the help of different research methods along with an appropriate theoretical methodology.
