Coal is playing a major role as a reductant and as an energy source in the present world steel production due to its low cost and widespread distribution around the world. At the same time, being the largest contributor to global CO2 emissions, coal faces significant environme ...
A molecular modeling study was carried out on linear polyethyleneimine (LPEI) to determine the CO2 capturing process taking into account structural changes of the material at various amounts of H2O. Until now, CO2 capture by LPEI was described as a combination of carbamic and ...
Direct air capture of CO2 with an amine resin
A molecular modeling study of the oxidative deactivation mechanism with O2
Direct air capture of CO2 with an amine resin
A molecular modeling study of the deactivation mechanism by CO2
Since 2012, Lewatit R VP OC 1065 was reported as a promising material for direct air capture of CO2. However, deactivation at a high pressure of CO2 at 120 °C was reported with detrimental effects on its application. In this study, using density functiona ...
CO2 solubility in small carboxylic acids
Monte Carlo simulations and PC-SAFT modeling
Carbon dioxide (CO2) can electrochemically be converted to a range of products including formic acid (HCOOH) and acetic acid (CH3COOH). The yield of the products in an electrolysis cell depends on the solubility of CO2 in the (aqueous) mixture. ...
Direct air capture of CO2 with an Amine Resin
A molecular modeling study of the CO2 capturing process
Thermodynamic and transport properties of crown-ethers
Force field development and molecular simulations
Natural gas, synthesis gas, and flue gas typically contain a large number of impurities (e.g., acidic gases), which should be removed to avoid environmental and technological problems, and to meet customer specifications. One approach is to use physical solvents to remove the ...
