Abstract

Sustainable engineering covers a wide scope, from improving the energy efficiency of industrial processes, limiting the use of hazardous or polluting chemicals, capturing pollutants already generated, and utilizing renewable sources for reactant species. In this work, various attempts to improve the sustainability of chemical engineering processes were performed through the alteration of nanoporous materials. In the first three sections the efficiency of the process to capture Carbon Dioxide on porous silicas was investigated. Specifically, three different porous systems were utilized to see what affect the pore chemistry, geometry, and interconnectedness play in the resulting carbon capacities and capture efficiencies.
