Abstract
- In the context of modern science, there is a growing interest in the creation of novel porous materials capable of acting as sorbefacients for small gas molecules. This is critical in terms of innovative energy alternatives as well as a healthier environment. In an effort to overcome the consequences of global industrialization, one of humanity's most severe problems, intensive attempts have been made to prevent CO 2 from entering the carbon cycle, as the ever-increasing CO 2 pollution in the earth's atmosphere. Owing to their high porosity, presence of ultra-small pores, structural diversity, high stability, and excellent recyclability, researchers claim that zeolite–an inexpensively accessible sorbent–could be an excellent prototype for CO 2 sorption. Here, we provide an exhaustive review of re-engineered zeolites as a sustainable material for selective CO 2 capture and storage; the progress so far indicates fast removal of CO 2 , and more work conforming to simple scalability, energy and time efficiency application can be done to improve the challenges. [Display omitted] • Discussed the importance of size change from micro to nano level and their proficiency in Carbon capture and storage. • Role of reshaping changes and site selectivity enhancement in CO 2 monetization. • Role of biomass-based material on CO 2 sequestration has also been illustrated. • Strategies to promote circular economics by using wastes as precursors in synthesis of zeolites. • Discussed novel green technologies in constructing reshaped zeolite.
