1. A method of processing carbon dioxide adsorbent for use in a C02 removal system, said method comprising:
- combining a polymer, lithium hydioxide (LiOH), and lubricant that dissolves the polymer to form a first LiOH adsorbent;
forming a structure using the first LiOH adsorbent;
extracting the lubricant from the structured LiOH adsorbent using a solvent to form a second LiOH adsorbent;
removing the solvent from the second LiOH adsorbent to form a third LiOH adsorbent; and
hydrating the third LiOH adsorbent to form a fourth LiOH adsorbent having a water content above an anhydrous level.

Abstract
A method of processing carbon dioxide adsorbent for use in a CO2 removal system. The method includes combining a polymer, lithium hydroxide (LiOH), and lubricant that dissolves the polymer to form a first LiOH adsorbent. A structure may be formed using the first LiOH adsorbent. The lubricant may be extracted from the structured LiOH adsorbent using a solvent to form a second LiOH adsorbent. The solvent may be removed from the second LiOH adsorbent to form a third LiOH adsorbent. The third LiOH adsorbent may be hydrated to form a fourth LiOH adsorbent having a water content above an anhydrous level.

13. A method for removing carbon dioxide, said method comprising:
-
forming an anhydrous lithium hydroxide (LiOH) adsorbent; adding water to the anhydrous LiOH adsorbent to form a pre-hydrated LiOH adsorbent; including the pre-hydrated LiOH adsorbent, having water content above an anhydrous level, in a location having airflow with carbon dioxide; and removing carbon dioxide with the pre-hydrated LiOH adsorbent. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)
