Abstract
New energy sources that reduce the volume of harmful gases such as SOx and NOx released into the atmosphere are in constant development. Natural gas, primarily made up of methane, is being widely used as one reliable energy source for heating and electricity generation due to its high combustion value. Currently, natural gas accounts for a large portion of electricity generation and chemical feedstock in manufacturing plastics and other commercially important organic chemicals. In the near future, natural gas will be widely used as a fuel for vehicles. Therefore, a practical storage device for its storage and transportation is very beneficial to the deployment of natural gas as an energy source for new technologies. In this tutorial review, biomaterials-based carbon monoliths (CMs), one kind of carbonaceous material, was reviewed as an adsorbent for natural gas (methane) adsorption and storage.
期刊介绍:
Green Energy & Environment (GEE) is an internationally recognized journal that undergoes a rigorous peer-review process. It focuses on interdisciplinary research related to green energy and the environment, covering a wide range of topics including biofuel and bioenergy, energy storage and networks, catalysis for sustainable processes, and materials for energy and the environment. GEE has a broad scope and encourages the submission of original and innovative research in both fundamental and engineering fields. Additionally, GEE serves as a platform for discussions, summaries, reviews, and previews of the impact of green energy on the eco-environment.
