Plasma-ionic liquid assisted CO2 capture and conversion: A novel technology

Abstract

The present study focused on CO2 capture, storage, and conversion through the innovative integration of plasma-ionic liquid (IL) technology. For the first time, we employed plasma-IL technology to confront climate change challenges. We utilized the [Bmim]Cl IL to capture and store CO2 under atmospheric pressure, and subsequently, we employed plasma to induce the transformation of IL-captured CO2 into CO. Furthermore, to enhance our understanding of the process of CO2 and CO capture in water and IL solutions, we performed computer simulations. This comprehensive approach provides valuable insights into the potential of plasma-IL technology as a viable solution for climate change.
