Autocatalysis and CO2: Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) Meets Natural Processes
Paul Joseph Dyson, Jorge Gustavo Uranga, Martin Hulla, Gabriela Gastelu
Autocatalytic reactions were proposed to play a key role at the beginning of life starting from the first reduction of CO2 to formate, acetate and C-1-C-4 hydrocarbons. In carbon capture and utilization (CCU) processes, the same reactions were demonstrated ...
Weinheim2023Visible-light driven water oxidation and oxygen production at soft interfaces
Hubert Girault, Astrid Johana Olaya Avendano, Jorge Gustavo Uranga, Julieta Soledad Riva, Sara Natalia Moya Betancourt
The visible light driven water oxidation reaction (WOR) by the organic electron acceptor 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyano-quinodimethane (TCNQF(4)) was studied at the water|butyronitrile interface. The WOR was performed at neutral pH, and without any ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2022Methanol production from CO(2)via an integrated, formamide-assisted approach
Paul Joseph Dyson, Andreas Züttel, Jorge Gustavo Uranga, Aswin Gopakumar, Gabriela Gastelu, Tim Pfister, Gunay Imanzade
The synthesis of fuels from CO2 has made tremendous progress in recent years, although practical applications remain limited. Herein, we describe a cyclic process that produces MeOH from CO(2)via formamide intermediates, which are initially reduced using N ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2020Ionic liquid containing electron-rich, porous polyphosphazene nanoreactors catalyze the transformation of CO2 to carbonates
Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Jorge Gustavo Uranga, Zhangjun Huang, Haiyan Jia, Yefeng Wang
We show that ionic liquids (ILs) interact with electron-rich, porous polyphosphazene (PPZ), to form hybrid PPZ-IL nanoreactors able to simultaneously capture and transform CO2 into carbonates. The PPZ nanospheres swell in organic solvents and effectively a ...
