Rising temperatures and changing weather patterns have made the effect of climate change
more evident setting up an alarm for the need of quick action for its mitigation. Carbon …

Biomimetic CO2 hydration over Ni (100),(110), and (111) surfaces was investigated to probe
the effect of the surface structure on the associated catalytic activity. Dispersion-corrected …

CO 2 mineralisation is a process that can store the CO 2 as a solid mineral permanently.
Brines rich in alkaline earth metals present an opportunity to trap CO 2 in the form of …

Hydration reaction of CO2 is one of the rate limiting steps for CO2 absorption (in aqueous
solutions) and aqueous CO2 mineralization. The catalytic activity of nickel nanoparticles …

In this work, wavy nickel nanowires (NiNWs) were immobilized on mesoporous silica (SiO2)
aerogels by the sol–gel method. We measured the catalytic activity of pure NiNWs and …

CO 2 mineralisation is an effective process to sequester this greenhouse gas into solid
carbonates permanently. A source of alkaline earth metals for CO 2 mineralisation that has …

Abstract Analysis of stability of chemical species over catalytic surfaces is crucial for
understanding the surface-specific effects to reach optimal catalyst composition. With …

In the study of the catalytic effect of nickel nanoparticles (NiNPs) on amine-based CO 2
capture systems, monoethanolamine (MEA) was subjected to a CO 2 loading at greatly …

A method for the synthesis of silica aerogel composites with embedded nickel nanoparticles
employing ambient pressure drying is successfully developed. Nickel nanoparticles (NiNPs) …

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out on five transition metals (Co,
Ni, Pd, Rh, Ru) to test their activities toward the biomimetic carbon dioxide hydration …
