Title:
TETHERED CATALYSTS FOR THE HYDRATION OF CARBON DIOXIDE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/109374
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system is provided that substantially increases the efficiency of CO2 capture and removal by positioning a catalyst within an optimal distance from the air-liquid interface. The catalyst is positioned within the layer determined to be the highest concentration of carbon dioxide. A hydrophobic tether is attached to the catalyst and the hydrophobic tether modulates the position of the catalyst within the liquid layer containing the highest concentration of carbon dioxide.
