Technical Abstract (Limit 2000 characters, approximately 200 words):

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.  This innovative carbon foam supported adsorbent bed powered with electricity can generate resistive heat on carbon nanotubes and directly transport the heat to its gust’s zeolite X13 and PEI800 to remove CO₂ and water for regeneration

          

          

     

Potential NASA Applications (Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words):

Spacecraft carbon dioxide (CO₂), water, and trace contaminant (organics) removal systems

          

          

     

Potential Non-NASA Applications (Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words):

Other potential markets will be coal-fire or nature gas-fired plants, as well as other chemical refinery plants for CO₂ clean up
