3 PROBLEM STATEMENT The presence of CO 2 causes environmental as well as natural gas process problems, the studies of how to capture CO 2 have been attractive for long time ago. To fabricate membranes from biodegradable materials (bacterial cellulose from Nata de coco, silk fibroin, ZnO nanoparticles) via normal casting evaporation drying technique for CO 2 adsorption. Studied the interactions of CO 2 with BC-based membranes by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy in the bending and asymmetric stretching mode of CO 2. 3

ATR-FTIR spectra of BC-based membranes in the bending mode region ( cm - 1 ) of CO 2 in all conditions: after heating above 100 C (control) and after pressurizing with CO 2 at 3 bars for 8 h, 16 h and 24 h. 14

15 RESULTS Bending (υ 2 ) mode vibration of CO 2 BC 16h ~667 cm BC+SF -1 8h = gas phase of CO 2 BC+ZnO 8h ~ 662 cm -1 = out-of-plane bending of associated CO 2 ~ 655 cm -1 = physically sorbed CO 2 ~ 650 cm -1 = in-plane bending of associated CO cm -1, 677 cm -1 BC control BC+SF control BC+ZnO control 15

16 RESULTS Asymmetric stretching (υ 3 ) vibration mode of CO 2 Control 8h 16h 24h BC BC+SF BC+ZnO Figure. ATR-FTIR spectra of BC-based membranes in the asymmetric stretching mode region ( cm -1 ) of CO 2 in all conditions: after heating above 100 C (control) and after pressurizing with CO 2 at 3 bars for 8 h, 16 h and 24 h. 16

17 RESULTS Asymmetric stretching (υ 3 ) mode vibration of CO 2 BC 16h BC control ~2370 cm -1 = combination band BC+ZnO of υ 24h 3 and the external BC+SF 24h vibrational mode of CO 2 against the surfaces of membrane ~2360 cm -1, 2340 cm -1 = gas phase of CO 2 ~2350 cm -1 = physically sorbed CO 2 ~2334 cm -1 = asymmetric stretching vibration of CO 2 ~2323 BC+SF cmcontrol -1 = hot band BC+ZnO control 17

18 CONCLUSIONS An increase in the absorbance of CO 2 bending and asymmetric stretching envelopes after pressurization, as well as the appearance of additional bands especially in the modified BC membranes, is an evidence of CO 2 sorption to the membranes. The demonstration of broader and more splitting lines of silk fibroinand ZnO nanoparticles-modified BC membranes spectra in both bending and asymmetric stretching modes can be signified that the introduction of silk fibroin and ZnO nanoparticles could increase the number of active sites for interaction with CO 2 to form more complex species. 18

19 CONCLUSIONS The SF- and ZnO-modified BC membranes achieved the highest efficiency at 8h after CO 2 sorption. While, the basic BC membrane revealed the highest amount of sorbed CO 2 at 16h, which required longer time than the modified BC membranes. The general conclusion is that CO 2 interact strongly with BC-based membrane materials and that adsorption can be facilitated by modification with silk fibroin and ZnO nanoparticles. This was expected owing to the presence of various active sites from silk fibroin and ZnO nanoparticles. 19
