Given its long time of permanence in the atmosphere (between 100 to 150 years); this has deployed research in the scientific field focused on the absorption and desorption of CO 2 in the atmosphere. This work presents the study of CO 2 adsorption employing materials based on graphene oxide (GO), such as GO foams with different oxidation percentages (3.00%, 5.25%, and 9.00%) in their structure, obtained via an environmentally friendly method. The characterization of CO 2 adsorption was carried out in a closed system, within which were placed the GO foams and other CO 2 adsorbent materials (zeolite and silica gel). Through a controlled chemical reaction, production of CO 2 was conducted to obtain CO 2 concentration curves inside the system and calculate from these the efficiency, yield, and effectiveness of CO 2 adsorption of the materials under study. The results obtained suggest that GO foams are a promising material for carbon capture and the future development of a new clean technology, given their highest CO 2 adsorption efficiency and yield.
