Counter-Intuitive Magneto-Water-Wetting Effect to CO2 Adsorption at Room Temperature Using MgO/Mg(OH)2 Nanocomposites.

ABSTRACT: MgO/Mg(OH)2-based materials have been intensively explored for CO2 adsorption due to their high theoretical but low practical CO2 capture efficiency. Our previous study on the effect of H2O wetting on CO2 adsorption in MgO/Mg(OH)2 nanostructures found that the presence of H2O molecules significantly increases (decreases) CO2 adsorption on the MgO (Mg(OH)2) surface. Furthermore, the magneto-water-wetting technique is used to improve the CO2 capture efficiency of various nanofluids by increasing the mass transfer efficiency of nanobeads. However, the influence of magneto-wetting to the CO2 adsorption at nanobead surfaces remains unknown. The effect of magneto-water-wetting on CO2 adsorption on MgO/Mg(OH)2 nanocomposites was investigated experimentally in this study. Contrary to popular belie
