- Description
- Methane capture and storage are of particular importance for the development of new technology to reduce the effects of climate change and global warming. Carbon-based nanomaterials are among several porous nanomaterials proposed as potential candidates for methane storage. In this paper, we adopt a new continuum approach with functional Lennard-Jones parameters to provide interaction energies for methane inside carbon nanostructures, namely fullerenes, nanotube bundles, and nanocones. This study provides a significant improvement to previous continuum modeling approaches using the Lennard-Jones potential.
