It is desired that carbon dioxide causing a greenhouse effect be removed at a high temperature and high pressure in a steam reforming reaction. In this research, a pellet form of adsorbent CaO is employed to capture $CO_2$. The adsorbent was manufactured using a high pressure molding on powdered $CaCO_3$ followed by calcination. Then its properties were analyzed and the adsorption experiments were carried out in a batch adsorption chamber. The pore area was found to be dependent on a molding pressure and the pore distribution showed two peaks. It is examined that $CO_2$ binds to CaO by means of chemisorption and its maximum conversion is nearly $80\%$ at $700^{circ}C$.
