What is it about?

Carbon dioxide is a green house gas and its large emission to atmosphere contributes to global warming. Techniques to sequester CO2 from atmosphere are of great significance. In this paper, we have reported an absorbent for CO2 capture and storage. We have used an organogel as the template for making this sorbent material

Why is it important?

This is important as the material reported in this paper can absorb CO2 from atmosphere.

Perspectives

This novel use of organogel has lot of beneficial implications especially in the domain of environmental protection and green earth.
