Current status of CO2 capture with ionic liquids: Development and progress

Global warming triggered by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2), significantly influences climate change and has become a common environmental issue recently. The current amine-based technologies (ABTs) for CO2 capture (CAPCO2) have high energy demand, low absorption, and desorption rates, and are less environmentally sustainable due to high emissions of volatile solvents. Therefore, the development of environmentally friendly CAPCO2 materials and/or processes is a growing area of research. The utilization of ionic liquids (ILs) for CAPCO2 has recently attracted attention. The unique characteristics of ILs, such as their low vapor pressure and high affinity for CAPCO2 as well as…
