CO2 capture and activation by superbase/polyethylene glycol and its subsequent conversion

Abstract

A highly efficient binary system consisting of polyethylene glycol and an amidine or guanidine superbase was developed for CO2 absorption, leading to the activation of CO2 molecules, and thus direct conversion of the captured CO2 to value-added chemicals or fuels was successfully performed to avoid desorption.
