TL;DR: Current understanding of fundamental aspects of the cyclic carbonation-calcination reactions of CaO such as its reversibility and kinetics are reviewed, and recent attempts to develop synthetic, CaO-based sorbents that possess high and cyclically stable CO2 uptakes are presented.

TL;DR: This work expands the compositional space of the MXene family by introducing a material with site-isolated cobalt centers embedded in the stable matrix of Mo2CTx, on par with the best performing non-noble metal-based HER catalysts.

TL;DR: A facile one-pot synthesis approach to yield highly effective, MgO-stabilized, CaO-based CO2 sorbents featuring highly porous multishelled morphologies, identified as an essential feature to yield a high-performance sorbent.

TL;DR: The favorable CO2 capture characteristics of the synthetic CO2 sorbent were attributed to the uniform dispersion of CaO on a stable nanosized mayenite framework, thus retarding thermal sintering of the material.

TL;DR: A template-assisted hydrothermal approach to develop CaO-based sorbents exhibiting a very high and cyclically stable CO2 uptake is exploited, thus maximizing the fraction of CO2 -capture-active CaO.
