| Summary: | The utilization of fossil energy around the world encourages the emergence of greenhouse
gas emissions, especially CO2 gas which has an impact on global climate change. To
overcome the problem of global warming that occurs in the world, law enforcement
efforts were made through the Paris Climate Conference (COP21) 2015 with the main
point of keeping the earth's temperature threshold below 2 oC and trying to reduce it to
1.5 oC above the earth's temperature in the pre-industrial era. Effective reduction of CO2
emissions can be done by separating CO2 by utilizing metal-organic framework/ionic
liquid (MOF/IL)-based technology which has advantages in the form of mechanical
strength and mass-transport limitations compared to alternatives that have been
developed. The initial development of the technology was carried out with the study of
IL through its bond strength with CO2.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the bond strength between IL and CO2 in several
different types of IL on their solubility in the development of MOF/IL as a CO2 gas
separation technology. This study is conducted through the optimization of IL and CO2
structures, IL bonding energy calculation, IL-CO2 bonding energy calculation, and ILCO2
complexation energy calculation using density functional theory (DFT) method in
Gaussian 09W and GaussView 5.0 software.
From this study, it can be concluded that the solubility of CO2 in IL is highly affected by
the IL-CO2 bonding energy or the IL stability, that is highly dependent of conformer
structure presence in cation and anion molecules constructing the IL and the size of the
molecules constructing the IL itself, especially the size of anion molecule. Generally, type
of IL that possess high CO2 solubillity is the IL that has a relatively big anion molecule
and containing conformer structure either in one of the molecules constructing the IL,
namely the cation and anion molecules, or in both of the molecules. |
