Separation of CO2 and TFE by using diethanolamine and diisopropylamine

Muhammad Salman, Elia Mercedes Ruiz Pachon

The near-azeotrope mixture of TFE and CO2 is an important concern urging the scientific community to develop new ways for TFE/CO2 separations. In this work, for the first time, Diisopropylamine (DIPA) and Diethanolamine (DEA) are used as solvents for separ ...

CO2 Capture and Release in Amine Solutions: To What Extent Can Molecular Simulations Help Understand the Trends?

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci, Changru Ma

Absorption in amine solutions is a well-established advanced technology for CO2 capture. However, the fundamental aspects of the chemical reactions occurring in solution still appear to be unclear. Our previous investigation of aqueous monoethanolamine (ME ...

In Silico Discovery of Covalent Organic Frameworks for Carbon Capture

Berend Smit, Daniele Ongari, Christoph Leopold Talirz, Aliaksandr Yakutovich, Johanna Maria Huck, Kathryn Suzanne Deeg, Daiane Damasceno Borges, Nakul Rampal

We screen a database of more than 69 000 hypothetical covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for carbon capture using parasitic energy as a metric. To compute CO2-framework interactions in molecular simulations, we develop a genetic algorithm to tune the charg ...

Biodegradable dendrimer functionalized carbon nanotube-hybrids for biomedical applications

Lakshmi Devi Chakkarapani

In the present study, biodegradable poly(amidoamine) dendrimers (PAMAM G1/G2/G3) was covalently functionalized with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nanostructured hydroxyapatite was immobilized onto CNTs-PAMAM matrix through coordination bond between the -NH2 ...

Pivotal Role of the Basic Character of Organic and Salt Catalysts in C-N Bond Forming Reactions of Amines with CO2

Paul Joseph Dyson, Martin Hulla

Organocatalysts promote a range of C-N bond forming reactions of amines with CO2. Herein, we review these reactions and attempt to identify the unifying features of the catalysts that allows them to promote a multitude of seemingly unrelated reactions. Ana ...

Organocatalysts in C-N Bond Forming Reactions of Amines with CO2

Martin Hulla

The thesis describes a simple approach for N-formylation of amines with CO2 and hydrosilane reducing agents, the use of organic salts as N-formylation catalysts, their physical properties required for high catalytic activity and their role in the catalytic ...

Reaction dynamics of in aqueous amines from ab initio molecular dynamics: 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (AMPD) compared to monoethanolamine (MEA)

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci, Changru Ma

We present Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics simulations-combined with metadynamics-of the reactions accompanying the capture of in an aqueous amine solution. The selected amine is 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, which has been investigated experimentall ...

CO2 capture in amine solutions: modelling and simulations with non-empirical methods

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci

Absorption in aqueous amine solutions is the most advanced technology for the capture of CO2, although suffering from drawbacks that do not allow exploitation on large scale. The search for optimum solvents has been pursued with empirical methods and has a ...

Keys to Lipid Selection in Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase Catalysis: Structural Flexibility, Gating Residues and Multiple Binding Pockets

Ursula Röthlisberger, Andrea Cavalli, Pablo Campomanes Ramos, Giulia Palermo

The fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) regulates the endocannabinoid system cleaving primarily the lipid messenger anandamide. FAAH has been well characterized over the years and, importantly, it represents a promising drug target to treat several diseases, ...
