CO2 is captured in aqueous monoethanolamine (MEA) sorbents as carbamate and bicarbonate/carbonate. The subsequent desorption for storage or utilization is energy-intensive, and this is a major impedi...

Effective carbon capture requires rapid gas transport to active sites, challenging to achieve without permanent porosity. Here, the authors report the development of hydrophobic organic crystals that ...

Aminolyzed PET could help fight both plastic waste and carbon emissions

A scalable chemical upcycling of PET waste into an efficient, durable, and selective CO2 sorbent has been achieved.

The commonly believed low chemical reactivity of CO2 is misguiding, considering the high electrophilicity of Csp of CO2, the seemingly omnipresent photosynthetic C–C bond formation, and the enzymatic ...

The atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) has fluctuated throughout Earth's history. However, the role of CO2 in prebiotic chemistry has predominantly been limitedly postulated as a C1 pr...

Carbon dioxide (CO2) mitigation is one of humanity’s greatest challenges, requiring cross-disciplinary effort to develop scalable technologies. This Voices, published after the 2024 Dream Reactions of CO2 conference in Favrholm, Denmark, asks speakers from the meeting this: what are your dream reactions of CO2?
