The field of CO2 capture and sequestration (CCS) has gained a lot of attention in the recent years because of an increasing need to deal with green gas emissions and resulting from them global warming. Calorimetric techniques (microcalorimetry in particular) are the analytical tools especially suitable to assess energetics of processes involved in the CCS applications. When coupled with a high pressure gas dosing system a Calvet calorimeter is capable to measure such properties as adsorption capacity, heats of adsorption and kinetics for CCS materials under high pressure and supercritical conditions. The results on coupled experiments for some metal organic framework materials (MOFs) are presented. The thermodynamic properties (both isosteric and directly measured enthalpies of adsorption) are presented and discussed.
