Abstract

Driven by increasing environmental concerns about greenhouse gas emissions (particularly carbon dioxide) and global warming, a growing amount of research has been carried out over the last decade on the use of ionic liquids (ILs), among other options, as a potential alternative to conventional processes based on aqueous amine solutions for CO2 capture.[1] The tethering of an amine functional group to the cation was one of the initial ...
