Efficient and reversible CO2 capture in bio-based ionic liquids solutions

Mechanisms of CO2 capture in ionic liquids: a computational perspective.

We present computational studies of CO2 sorption in two different classes of ionic liquid. The addition of carbon dioxide to four superbase ionic liquids, [P3333][Benzim], [P3333][124Triz], [P3333][123Triz] and [P3333][Bentriz], was studied using the DFT approach and considering anions alone and individual ion pairs. The addition of CO2 to the anion alone clearly resulted in the formation of a ...

Reaction of Sulfur Dioxide (so2) with Reversible Ionic Liquids (revils) for Carbon Dioxide (co2) Capture

Efficient and reversible CO2 capture by amine functionalized-silica gel confined task-specific ionic liquid system

Simple, efficient and practical CO2 capture method is reported using task-specific ionic liquid (IL) supported onto the amine-functionalized silica gel. The results have been shown that both the capacity and rate of the CO2 absorption notably increase in the supported IL/molecular sieve 4 Å system in comparison of homogeneous IL. Additionally, it has shown that the prepared material is capable ...

Efficient CO2 capture by tertiary amine-functionalized ionic liquids through Li+-stabilized zwitterionic adduct formation

Highly efficient CO2 absorption was realized through formation of zwitterionic adducts, combining synthetic strategies to ionic liquids (ILs) and coordination. The essence of our strategy is to make use of multidentate cation coordination between Li(+) and an organic base. Also PEG-functionalized organic bases were employed to enhance the CO2-philicity. The ILs were reacted with CO2 to form the...

Ionic Liquids and Supercritical CO2

Ionic liquids (ILs) are organic salts that have melting points around room temperature. They have received tremendous attention recently due to their low volatility and subsequent potential to reduce air pollution if used as replacements for volatile organic solvents. As a result, they have the potential to be used in a wide variety of chemical processing applications, including as solvents for...
