- 📍 Venue: Room N7, Pembroke College
Abstract
Carbon capture and storage technology has drawn serious attentions worldwide in recent years. Trying to reduce the energy cost, scientists look for sponge-like materials which only require ambient conditions to capture, sequestrate and release CO2 . In this talk, Pu will discuss about one of these materials, zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), its features in CO2 adsorption and the mechanism behind.
Series This talk is part of the Cambridge Zero Carbon Society series.
