Abstract
A process, apparatus, and cyclopropenimine (CPI) material for generating metal carbonates are disclosed. Generating the metal carbonates comprises reacting carbon dioxide (CO2) with CPI. Generating the metal carbonates also comprises forming a reaction mixture comprising water, metal cations, and a product of the reacting.
Claims20
A process, comprising:
- reacting carbon dioxide (CO2) with a cyclopropenimine (CPI);
- and
- forming a reaction mixture comprising water, metal cations, and a product of the reacting.
An apparatus for generating metal carbonates, wherein the generating comprises:
- reacting carbon dioxide (CO2) with a cyclopropenimine (CPI);
