Electrochemical Reduction Of Carbon Dioxide Using Ruthenium And Amines, Sydney Moise
Honors Theses
With an increased concern for climate change in the recent years, a significant area of research has been devoted to the reduction of greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide (CO2) resides in the atmosphere between 300 – 1000 years, making the reduction of the molecule a substantial field of study.1 Amines have been used as CO2 scrubbing agents in literature historically, due to their ability to form bonds to carbon.2 Although studies involving metal catalysts and amines have been reported numerous times, research involving chemical reduction of CO2 using purely amines is scarce. In this paper, amines, in addition to hydride donors …
