Table shows the assessed importance of each adsorbent parameter to use as a guide for adsorbent design. This work only encompassed the design space of amine-functionalised adsorbents, so many of the conclusions will only hold for such adsorbents, and there is still much scope for tuning and optimising the porous support and amine combination. It should also be noted that we consider a type 1 CO2 isotherm model. So, not all of our findings will apply to adsorbents with more exotic isotherm shapes, such as "step-shaped" isotherms. The optimisation of an adsorbent property is occasionally linear. However, we need to accept that when improving one property, we may impair another, and an adsorbent that combines all optimal properties may not exist. Additionally, we can reason how to circumvent or avoid problems such as low thermal conductivity. For example, we can develop adsorbents that work with alternative faster heating methods such as microwave heating.
