Beryllium carbonate: a model compound for highest capacity carbon sequestration chemistry

Abstract

Beryllium carbonate has the highest capacity to bind and release the greenhouse gas CO2 compared to amines, ionic liquids, CaCO3 or Li2CO3. The thermodynamic equilibrium for CO2 and BeO from BeCO3 is calculated. TGA of BeCO3 is used to determine the stepwise mechanism of its CO2 release, and the low melting point Li/Sr/BeCO3 is demonstrated.
