报告摘要
The natural carbon cycle needs large scale CO2 capture, storage and conversion to accommodate the excess emissions. A sustainable circular carbon economy would require new pathways since the current technologies and CO2 market are far too insufficient. We studied effective carbon capture strategies and built over 200 porous polymers with ranging functionalities. Azo linked frameworks yielded an unprecedented N2-phobic behavior not previously observed. To increase CO2 binding and the purity of the captured CO2, we investigated high amine loading structures and found that moist CO2 is even more favorable in carbon capture with amines and there is a unique wrapping mechanism. For CO2 fixation, we chose a redox path of dry reforming and a favorable, non-redox reaction of CO2 cycloaddition to epoxides to provide more than 10 gigatons of CO2 fixation, a 2050 target set by the National Academy of Sciences of the USA. In dry reforming of methane, we developed a Ni-Mo-MgO nanocatalyst that runs over 850 hours of continuous activity, a record for non-noble catalysts without coking or sintering. We identified a novel mechanism that requires nanocatalysts to be on single crystal edges (NOSCE). For the non-redox CO2 fixation into cyclic carbonates, we developed a new imidazolinium catalyst forming a Lewis acid/base pair that catalyzes even ambient pressure CO2 without any need for solvents, co-catalysts or metals.
