Description
In this project, we propose to develop zeolite X13 and branched poyethyleneimine (PEI800) (60% loading) alginate polymer gel with fluffy carbon nanotubes as nanoscale heaters that is capable to be printing and coating on highly electrically and thermally conductive, porous carbon foams. The developing printable polymer gel can form spheric beads embedded in carbon foams after drying. The polymer beads with microscopic structures allow for good vapor permeability through adsorbent bed, also host zeolite X13 and PEI800 CO2 absorber as well as hygroscopic salts for water absorption. nbsp;This innovative carbon foam supported adsorbent bed powered with electricity can generate resistive heat on carbon nanotubes and directly transport the heat to its gustrsquo;s zeolite X13 and PEI800 to remove CO2 and water for regeneration
