Curving the CO2 atmospheric levels is one of the challenges of this century, given its direct impact on climate change. Of the several strategies of CO2 capture and storage, sorption-enhanced water–gas shift (SEWGS) process, a combination of CO2 adsorption and the water–gas shift reaction, has been appointed as one of the most promising techniques due to is low energy consumption and high efficiency. SEWGS operating settings at both moderate temperature (200–450 ◦C) and high pressure (more than 10 bar) bring the need to find an adsorbent capable of working at these conditions. Calcined layered double hydroxides (LDH) have been proven to give the best results in this range of pressure/temperatures even though its performance can be greatly improved. Herein, a state-of-art of the research accomplished up until now is presented. Several strategies can be followed to improve the adsorbents performance: the synthesis method, LDH composition, modifications employed to promote their adsorption capacity or how the adsorption conditions can affect their efficiency
