Article Abstract

The pressing need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions has driven recent advances in carbon capture technologies. Among these, adsorption has emerged as one of the most efficient and promising methods for CO sequestration. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of recent progress in biomass-derived activated carbon (AC) as a sustainable solution for carbon capture. It explores the influence of various biomass precursors, their composition, and the effects of chemical and thermal treatments on the textural properties and CO adsorption capacity of AC. The role of functional groups and pore structures in enhancing adsorption performance, particularly under humid conditions, is also examined. Additionally, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven technologies in process modeling and the discovery of optimized bio-based AC materials is highlighted. Classic adsorption kinetic models are reviewed to provide deeper insights into CO adsorption mechanisms and the efficiency of bio-based AC. The discussion underscores the necessity of continued research to enhance the properties, scalability, and cost-effectiveness of bio-based AC while leveraging AI-driven innovations to advance carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions.

Silk fibroin (SF)-based flexible electronic/photonic materials have gained great attention in wearable devices and soft sensors. However, it remains challenging to understand the molecular interaction mechanisms and subsequently fabricate SF-based flexible materials that exhibit fluorescence, humidity sensitivity, and conductivity properties. In this study, by incorporating lanthanide europium ion (Eu), the design and fabrication of a flexible, fluorescent, and conductive SF membrane was proposed.

Airborne pathogens and pollution control typically necessitate multiple membranes, each specializing in efficient aerosol filtration, moisture regulation, or antimicrobial protection. Integrating all these functions into a single membrane is highly advantageous but remains inherently challenging due to material incompatibility and inevitable performance trade-offs. Here, we present a photoactive Janus nanofibrous membrane for highly efficient air purification, engineered via sequential electrospinning.

Chemical absorption of carbon dioxide using monoethanolamine (MEA) is a well-established method for postcombustion CO capture. In this study, we aimed to integrate (1) the MEA-based CO capture with the regeneration of MEA using calcium-based mineralization, followed by (2) direct utilization of captured CO to form syngas via a calcium looping-based dry reforming of methane (CaL-DRM), an interfacial catalytic process. The results show that room-temperature CO capture-MEA regeneration was achievable by using calcium-based mineralization.
