Abstract
In the present work, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were synthesized in a one-step process by heating the hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs) tetrabutylammonium bromide and tetrabutylphosphonium bromide, along with two hydrogen bond donors (HBDs) ethanolamine and N-methyldiethanolamine, which were mixed in certain molar ratios. This mixture was then mixed with water to form a DES + water system. The densities of the prepared DES + water systems were successfully measured using the U-tube oscillation method under atmospheric pressure over a temperature range of 293.15-363.15 K. The CO2 trapping capacity of the DES + water systems was investigated using the isovolumetric saturation technique at pressures ranging from 0.1 MPa to 1 MPa and temperatures ranging from 303.15 K to 323.15 K. A semi-empirical model was employed to fit the experimental CO2 solubility data, and the deviations between the experimental and fitted values were calculated. At a temperature of 303.15 K and a pressure of 100 kPa, the CO2 solubilities in the DES + water systems of TBAB and MEA, with molar ratios of 1:8, 1:9, and 1:10, were measured to be 0.1430 g/g, 0.1479 g/g, and 0.1540 g/g, respectively. Finally, it was concluded that the DES + water systems had a superior CO2 capture capacity compared to the 30% aqueous monoethanolamine solution commonly used in industry, indicating the potential of DES + water systems for CO2 capture.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are a generation of ionic liquids that benefit from low cost, good stability, and environmental-friendly features. In this research, a porous silica gel was impregnated with a eutectic Choline Chloride-Monoethanolamine solvent (ChCl-MEA) to greatly improve its CO2 capture performance. In the impregnation, the weight percentages of ChCl-MEA were used in the range of 10-60 wt% at a temperature of 25 °C. The effect of ChCl-MEA loading on the structural properties of the DES-modified silica samples was studied by BET, FTIR, and TGA analyses. Investigation of the CO2 adsorption performance at different operational conditions showed that the modified silica gel with 50 wt% ChCl-MEA (Silica-CM50) presents the highest CO2 capture capacity of 89.32 mg/g. In the kinetic modeling, the fractional order model with a correlation coefficient of 0.998 resulted in the best fit with the experimental data. In addition, the isotherm data for Silica-CM50 were well-fitted with the Dual site Langmuir isotherm model with a correlation coefficient of 0.999, representing two distinct sites for the adsorption process. Moreover, the thermodynamic parameters including Enthalpy, Entropy, and Gibbs free energy at 25 °C were obtained to be - 2.770, - 0.005 and - 1.162, respectively. The results showed the exothermic, spontaneous and feasibility of the adsorption process.

Abstract
A novel way to mitigate the greenhouse effect is to use dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) to convert carbon dioxide from the air into useful products, such as hydrocarbons, which can also store energy from the sun, a plentiful, clean, and safe resource. The conversion of CO2 can help reduce the impacts of greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming. However, there is a major obstacle in using DSSCs, since many solar devices operate with organic electrolytes, producing pollutants including toxic substances. Therefore, a key research area is to find new eco-friendly electrolytes that can effectively dissolve carbon dioxide. One option is to use deep eutectic solvents (DESs), which are potential substitutes for ionic liquids (ILs) and have similar advantages, such as being customizable, economical, and environmentally friendly. DESs are composed of low-cost materials and have very low toxicity and high biodegradability, making them suitable for use as electrolytes in DSSCs, within the framework of green chemistry. The purpose of this brief review is to explore the existing knowledge about how CO2 dissolves in DESs and how these solvents can be used as electrolytes in solar devices, especially in DSSCs. The physical and chemical properties of the DESs are described, and areas are suggested where further research should be focused.

Abstract
In the relentless battle against the impending climate crisis, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged as beacons of hope in the realm of green chemistry, igniting a resurgence of scientific exploration. These versatile compounds hold the promise of revolutionizing carbon capture, effectively countering the rising tide of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions responsible for global warming and climate instability. Their adaptability offers a tantalizing prospect, as they can be finely tailored for a multitude of applications, thereby encompassing the uncharted territory of potential DESs. Navigating this unexplored terrain underscores the vital need for predictive computational methods, which serve as our guiding compass in the expansive landscape of DESs. Thermodynamic modeling and solubility prognostications stand as our unwavering navigational aides on this treacherous odyssey. In this direction, the COSMO-RS model intertwined with the captivating Stochastic Gradient Boosting (SGB) algorithm. Together, they unveil the elusive truths pertaining to CO2 solubility in DESs, forging a path toward a sustainable future. Our quest is substantiated by two exhaustive datasets, a repository of knowledge encompassing 1973 and 2327 CO2 solubility data points spanning 132 and 150 distinct DESs respectively, encapsulating a spectrum of conditions. The SGB models, incorporating features derived from COSMO-RS, as well as accounting for pressure and temperature variables, furnishes predictions that harmonize seamlessly with experimental CO2 solubility values, boasting an impressive Average Absolute Relative Deviation (AARD) of a mere 0.85% and 2.30% respectively. When juxtaposed with literature-reported methodologies like different EoS, as well as Computational Solvation, and machine learning (ML) models, our SGB model emerges as the epitome of reliability, offering robust forecasts of CO2 solubility in DESs. It emerges as a potent tool for the design and selection of DESs for CO2 capture and utilization, heralding a sustainable and environmentally conscientious future in the battle against climate change.

Abstract
Rising atmospheric concentrations of anthropogenic hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon monoxide (CO) as a result of industrialization have encouraged researchers to explore innovative technologies for capturing these gases. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are an alternative media for mitigating H2S and CO emissions. Herein, we have employed ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the structures of the nearest-neighbor solvation shells surrounding H2S and CO when they are dissolved in reline and ethaline DESs. We aim to delineate the structural arrangement responsible for favorable H2S and CO capture by analyzing the key interactions between H2S and CO solutes with various components of the DESs. We observe that in the reline-H2S system, chloride and carbonyl oxygen of urea are found to have the closest distance interaction with hydrogen atoms of the H2S solute. The sulfur atom of H2S is found to be predominantly solvated by hydrogen and oxygen atoms of urea molecules and the hydroxyl hydrogen of choline cations. The chloride ions and ethylene glycol molecules predominantly govern the solvation of H2S in the ethaline-H2S system. In both the DESs, H2S is solvated by the hydroxyl group of the choline cations rather than by their ammonium group. In the reline-CO system, all the atoms of urea along with chloride dominate the immediate solvation shell around CO. In the ethaline-CO system, hydroxyl oxygen and hydrogen atoms of ethylene glycol are found in the nearest solvation structure around CO. Both the DESs exhibit a stronger solvent-solute charge-transfer tendency toward the H2S solute compared to CO.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are one of the most interesting research subjects in green chemistry nowadays. Due to their low toxicity, simple synthesis, and lower prices, they have gradually taken the place of other green solvents such as ionic liquids (ILs) in sustainable processes. However, problems such as high viscosity and high polarity limit the applications of DESs in areas such as extraction, catalysis, and biocatalysis. In this work, we introduce and evaluate the potential application of scCO2/DES for the first time. Molecular dynamics simulations were used to examine the phase behavior, polarity, molecular mobilities, and microstructure of this system. Results show that CO2 molecules can significantly diffuse to the DES phase, while DES components do not appear in the scCO2 phase. The diffused CO2 molecules significantly enhanced the molecular mobility of the DES components. The presence of CO2 molecules changes the DES polarity so that hexane can be solubilized and dispersed in the DES phase. Radial distribution functions show that the solubilized CO2 molecules have negligible effects on the microstructure of DES. It was shown that chloride and urea are the main interaction sites of CO2 in DES. The results of this study show that scCO2/DES as a new class of green and versatile solvents can open a new promising window for research in sustainable chemistry and engineering.

Abstract
Nowadays, many researchers are focused on finding a solution to the problem of global warming. Carbon dioxide is considered to be responsible for the "greenhouse" effect. The largest global emission of industrial CO2 comes from fossil fuel combustion, which makes power plants the perfect point source targets for immediate CO2 emission reductions. A state-of-the-art method for capturing carbon dioxide is chemical absorption using an aqueous solution of alkanolamines, most frequently a 30% wt. solution of monoethanolamine (MEA). Unfortunately, the usage of alkanolamines has a number of drawbacks, such as the corrosive nature of the reaction environment, the loss of the solvent due to its volatility, and a high energy demand at the regeneration step. These problems have driven the search for alternatives to that method, and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) might be a very good substitute. Many types of DESs have thus far been investigated for efficient CO2 capture, and various hydrogen bond donors and acceptors have been used. Deep eutectic solvents that are capable of absorbing carbon dioxide physically and chemically have been reported. Strategies for further CO2 absorption improvement, such as the addition of water, other co-solvents, or metal salts, have been proposed. Within this review, the physical properties of DESs are presented, and their effects on CO2 absorption capacity are discussed in conjunction with the types of HBAs and HBDs and their molar ratios. The practical issues of using DESs for CO2 separation are also described.

Abstract
CONTEXT Global warming is a severe problem experiencing the climate crisis due to rising CO2 emissions. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have recently attracted a lot of attention as potential absorbents to mitigate carbon dioxide CO2 emissions because of their large CO2 capacities and stability under diverse conditions. Designing a potent DES requires knowledge of molecular-level understanding including structure, dynamics, and interfacial properties in DESs. In this study, we investigate the CO2 sorption and diffusion in different DESs at different temperatures and pressure using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Our results demonstrate that CO2 molecules preferentially concentrate at the CO2-DES interface, and the diffusion of CO2 in bulk DESs increases with increasing pressure and temperature. The solubility of CO2 in the three DESs increases as ChCL-ethylene glycol < ChCL-urea < ChCL-glycerol at high pressure (58.6 bar). METHODS The initial configuration for MD simulations included DES and CO2 and produced the solvation box using PACKMOL software. The geometries are optimized in the Gaussian 09 software at the theoretical level of B3LYP/6-311 + G*. The partial atomic charges were fitted to an electrostatic surface potential using the CHELPG method. MD simulations were carried out by using the NAMD version 2.13 software. VMD software was used to take the snapshots. TRAVIS software is used to determine spatial distribution functions.

Abstract
This study investigates the effect of using water as a low-viscosity component in ternary amine-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) on the physicochemical properties, thermal stability, and CO2 absorption capacity of the resulting DESs. It should be emphasized that water is a component of the ternary DES. The effect of water content in the DES, type of hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs), hydrogen bond donors (HBDs), and HBA:HBD ratio on the above parameters was investigated. Moreover, the effect of temperature and pressure on the CO2 absorption capacity of DESs was predicted using the predictive model COSMO-RS. This model was also used to predict the CO2 solubility in the DESs and the results were compared with the experimental values. The results showed that the addition of small amounts of water, e.g., 5 and 10 wt% during preparation, can significantly decrease the viscosity of the resulting DESs, up to 25% at room temperature, while maintaining the high CO2 absorption capacity and high thermal stability. The ternary DESs based on MEA exhibited a high CO2 absorption capacity of 0.155-0.170 g CO2 / g DES. The ternary DESs were found to be thermally stable with a decomposition temperature of 125°C, which promotes the use of such solvents in post-combustion capture processes. Finally, COSMO-RS proved to be a suitable tool for qualitative prediction of CO2 solubility in DESs and demonstration of trends related to the effects of temperature, pressure, molar ratio, water content, HBD and HBA on CO2 solubility.

Abstract
In this study, CO2 solubility in different choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) has been investigated using the Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship (QSPR). In this regard, the effect of different structures of the hydrogen bond donor (HBD) in choline chloride (ChCl) based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) has been studied in different temperatures and different molar ratios of ChCl as hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) to HBD. 12 different datasets with 390 data on the CO2 solubility were chosen from the literature for the model development. Eight predictive models, which contain the pressure and one structural descriptor, have been developed at the fixed temperature (i.e. 293, 303, 313, or 323 K), and the constant molar ratio of ChCl to HBD equal to 1:3 or 1:4. Moreover, two models were also introduced, which considered the effects of pressure, temperature, and HBD structures, simultaneously in the molar ratios equal to 1:3 or 1:4. Two additional datasets were used only for the further external validation of these two models at new temperatures, pressures, and HBD structures. It was identified that CO2 solubility depends on the "EEig02d" descriptor of HBD. "EEig02d" is a molecular descriptor derived from the edge adjacency matrix of a molecule that is weighted by dipole moments. This descriptor is also related to the molar volume of the structure. The statistical evaluation of the proposed models for the unfixed and fixed temperature datasets confirmed the validity of the developed models.

Abstract
Because of increasing atmospheric anthropogenic ammonia (NH3) emission, researchers are devising new techniques to capture NH3. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are found as potential media for NH3 mitigation. In the present study, we have carried out ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations to decipher the solvation shell structures of an ammonia solute in reline (1:2 mixture of choline chloride and urea) and ethaline (1:2 mixture of choline chloride and ethylene glycol) DESs. We aim to resolve the fundamental interactions which help stabilize NH3 in these DESs, focusing on the structural arrangement of the DES species in the nearest solvation shell around NH3 solute. In reline, the hydrogen atoms of NH3 are preferentially solvated by chloride anions and the carbonyl oxygen atoms of urea. The nitrogen atom of NH3 renders hydrogen bonding with hydroxyl hydrogen of the choline cation. The positively charged head groups of the choline cations prefer to stay away from NH3 solute. In ethaline, strong hydrogen bonding interaction exists between the nitrogen atom of NH3 and hydroxyl hydrogen atoms of ethylene glycol. The hydrogen atoms of NH3 are found to be solvated by hydroxyl oxygen atoms of ethylene glycol and choline cation. While ethylene glycol molecules play a crucial role in solvating NH3, the chloride anions remain passive in deciding the first solvation shell. In both the DESs, choline cations approach NH3 from their hydroxyl group side. We observe slightly stronger solute-solvent charge transfer and hydrogen bonding interaction in ethaline than those in reline.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are multicomponent designer solvents that exist as stable liquids over a wide range of temperatures. Over the last two decades, research has been dedicated to developing noncytotoxic, biodegradable, and biocompatible DESs to replace commercially available toxic organic solvents. However, most of the DESs formulated until now are hydrophilic and disintegrate via dissolution on coming in contact with the aqueous phase. To expand the repertoire of DESs as green solvents, hydrophobic DESs (HDESs) were prepared as an alternative. The hydrophobicity is a consequence of the constituents and can be modified according to the nature of the application. Due to their immiscibility, HDESs induce phase segregation in an aqueous solution and thus can be utilized as an extracting medium for a multitude of compounds. Here, we review literature reporting the usage of HDESs for the extraction of various organic compounds and metal ions from aqueous solutions and absorption of gases like CO2. We also discuss the techniques currently employed in the extraction processes. We have delineated the limitations that might reduce the applicability of these solvents and also discussed examples of how DESs behave as reaction media. Our review presents the possibility of HDESs being used as substitutes for conventional organic solvents.

Abstract
This study aims to optimize ultrasonic-assisted natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) based extraction from C. longa. Choline chloride-lactic acid (CCLA-H2O = 1:1, b/v) was used to investigate the impact of various process parameters such as solvent’s water content, solid loading, temperature, and extraction time. The optimal yield of 79.635 mg/g of C. longa was achieved from extraction in 20% water content NADES with a 4% solid loading in 35 °C temperature for 1 h. Peleg’s model was used to describe the kinetics of the optimized ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) method, and the results were found to be compatible with experimental data. The optimum conditions obtained from C. longa extraction were then used for the extraction of C. xanthorriza and C. mangga, which give yields of 2.056 and 31.322 mg/g, respectively. Furthermore, n-hexane was utilized as an anti-solvent in the separation process of curcuminoids extract from C. longa, C. xanthorriza, and C. mangga, which gave curcuminoid recovery of 39%, 0.74%, and 27%, respectively. Solidification of curcuminoids was also carried out using the crystallization method with n-hexane and isopropanol. However, the solution of CCLA and curcuminoids formed a homogeneous mixture with isopropanol. Hence, the curcuminoids could not be solidified due to the presence of NADES in the extract solution.

Abstract
Because of the rising concentration of harmful greenhouse gases like methane in the atmosphere, researchers are striving for developing novel techniques for capturing these gases. Recently, neoteric liquids such as deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged as an efficient means of sequestration of methane. Herein, we have performed ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations to elucidate the solvation structure around a methane molecule dissolved in reline and ethaline DESs. We aim to elicit the structural organization of different constituents of the DESs in the vicinity of methane, particularly highlighting the key interactions that stabilize such gases in DESs. We observe quite different solvation structures of methane in the two DESs. In ethaline, chloride ions play an active role in solvating methane. Instead, in reline, chloride ions do not interact much with the methane molecule in the first solvation shell. In reline, choline cations approach the methane molecule from their hydroxyl group side, whereas urea molecules approach methane from their carbonyl oxygen as well as amide group sides. In ethaline, ethylene glycol and Cl- dominate the nearest neighbor solvation structure around the methane molecule. In both the DESs, we do not observe any significant methane-DES charge transfer interactions, apart from what is present between choline cation and Cl- anion.

Abstract
Having been introduced in 2003, Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) make up a most recent category of green solvents. Due to their unique characteristics, and also their tunable physical properties, DESs have shown high potentials for use in various applications. One of the investigated applications is CO2 absorption. The thermodynamic modeling of CO2 solubility in DESs has been pursued by a number of researchers to estimate the capacity and capability of DESs for such tasks. Among the advanced equations of state (EoSs), the Perturbed Chain-Statistical Associating Fluid Theory (PC-SAFT) is a well-known EoS. In this study, the performance of the PC-SAFT EoS for estimating CO2 solubility in various DESs, within wide ranges of temperatures and pressures, was investigated. A large data bank, including 2542 CO2 solubility data in 109 various-natured DESs was developed and used for this study. This is currently the most comprehensive study in the open literature on CO2 solubility in DESs using an EoS. For modeling, the DES was considered as a pseudo-component with a 2B association scheme. CO2 was considered as both an inert and a 2B-component and the results of each association scheme were compared. Considering the very challenging task of modeling a complex hydrogen bonding mixture with gases, the results of AARD% being lower than 10% for both of the investigated association schemes of CO2, showed that PC-SAFT is a suitable model for estimating CO2 solubilities in various DESs. Also, by proposing generalized correlations to predict the PC-SAFT parameters, covering different families of DESs, the developed model provides a global technique to estimate CO2 solubilities in new and upcoming DESs, avoiding the necessity of further experimental work. This can be most valuable for screening and feasibility studies to select potential DESs from the innumerable options available.

Abstract
The geological sequestration of CO2 in deep saline aquifers is one of the most effective strategies to reduce greenhouse emissions from the stationary point sources of CO2. However, it is a complex task to quantify the storage capacity of an aquifer as it is a function of various geological characteristics and operational decisions. This study applies physics-based proxy modeling by using multiple machine learning (ML) models to predict the CO2 trapping scenarios in a deep saline aquifer. A compositional reservoir simulator was used to develop a base case proxy model to simulate the CO2 trapping mechanisms (i.e., residual, solubility, and mineral trapping) for 275 years following a 25-year CO2 injection period in a deep saline aquifer. An expansive dataset comprising 19,800 data points was generated by varying several key geological and decision parameters to simulate multiple iterations of the base case model. The dataset was used to develop, train, and validate four robust ML models—multilayer perceptron (MLP), random forest (RF), support vector regression (SVR), and extreme gradient boosting (XGB). We analyzed the sequestered CO2 using the ML models by residual, solubility, and mineral trapping mechanisms. Based on the statistical accuracy results, with a coefficient of determination (R2) value of over 0.999, both RF and XGB had an excellent predictive ability for the cross-validated dataset. The proposed XGB model has the best CO2 trapping performance prediction with R2 values of 0.99988, 0.99968, and 0.99985 for residual trapping, mineralized trapping, and dissolution trapping mechanisms, respectively. Furthermore, a feature importance analysis for the RF algorithm identified reservoir monitoring time as the most critical feature dictating changes in CO2 trapping performance, while relative permeability hysteresis, permeability, and porosity of the reservoir were some of the key geological parameters. For XGB, however, the importance of uncertain geologic parameters varied based on different trapping mechanisms. The findings from this study show that the physics-based smart proxy models can be used as a robust predictive tool to estimate the sequestration of CO2 in deep saline aquifers with similar reservoir characteristics.

Abstract
Recently, deep eutectic solvent (DES) or ionic liquid (IL) analogues have been considered as the newest green solvent, demonstrating the potential to replace harsh volatile organic solvents. DESs are mainly a combination of two compounds: hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and hydrogen bond donor (HBD), which have the ability to interact through extensive hydrogen bonds. A thorough understanding of their physicochemical properties is essential, given their successful applications on an industrial scale. The appropriate blend of HBA to HBD can easily fine-tune DES properties for desired applications. In this context, we have reviewed the basic information related to DESs, the two most studied physicochemical properties (density and viscosity), and their performance as a solvent in (i) drug delivery and (ii) extraction of biomolecules. A broader approach of various factors affecting their performance has been considered, giving a detailed picture of the current status of DESs in research and development.

Abstract
Up to now, many kinds of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were investigated for the capture of acidic gases from flue gases. In this review, non-functionalized and functionalized DESs, including binary and ternary DESs, for SO2, CO2 and NO capture, are summarized based on the mechanism of absorption, physical interaction or chemical reaction. New strategies for improving the absorption capacity are introduced in this review. For example, a third component can be introduced to form a ternary DES to suppress the increase in viscosity and improve the CO2 absorption capacity. DESs, synthesized with halogen salt hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs) and functionalized hydrogen bond donors (HBDs), can be used for the absorption of SO2 and NO with high absorption capacities and low viscosities after absorption, due to physicochemical interaction between gases and DESs. Emphasis is given to introducing the absorption capacities of acidic gases in these DESs, the mechanism of the absorption, and the ways to enhance the absorption capacity.

Abstract
The urgency of advancing green chemistry from labs and computers into the industries is well-known. The Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) are a promising category of novel green solvents which simultaneously have the best advantages of liquids and solids. Furthermore, they can be designed or engineered to have the characteristics desired for a given application. However, since they are rather new, there are no general models available to predict the properties of DESs without requiring other properties as input. This is particularly a setback when screening is required for feasibility studies, since a vast number of DESs are envisioned. For the first time, this study presents five group contribution (GC) and five atomic contribution (AC) models for densities, refractive indices, heat capacities, speeds of sound, and surface tensions of DESs. The models, developed using the most up-to-date databank of various types of DESs, simply decompose the molecular structure into a number of predefined groups or atoms. The resulting AARD% of densities, refractive indices, heat capacities, speeds of sound and surface tensions were, respectively, 1.44, 0.37, 3.26, 1.62, and 7.59% for the GC models, and 2.49, 1.03, 9.93, 4.52 and 7.80% for the AC models. Perhaps, even more importantly for designer solvents, is the predictive capability of the models, which was also shown to be highly reliable. Accordingly, very simple, yet highly accurate models are provided that are global for DESs and needless of any physical property information, making them useful predictive tools for a category of green solvents, which is only starting to show its potentials in green technology.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) became an object of a great interest as an alternative to ionic liquids (ILs) and commonly used in CO2 capture amine solutions. In the present study, five different DESs based on 3-amino-1-propanol as physical-chemical CO2 absorbents were used. The composition was chosen in order to estimate the effects of hydrogen bond acceptor:hydrogen bond donor (HBA:HBD) molar ratio, anion type and length of alkyl chain of composing salt. The Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to confirm chemical reaction. The solubility of CO2 was measured at low pressures up to 170 kPa at the temperature range of 293–318 K. Viscosity, polarity and Kamlet–Taft parameters were determined in order to estimate the dependences of the parameters and the CO2 capacity. CO2 uptake was observed to improve with decreasing molar ratio of hydrogen bond donor. Comparing the CO2 capacity of [TBAC]-based DESs, at the approximate pressure of 50 kPa, it was observed that the capacity increased in the following order of molar ratios—1:8 < 1:6 < 1:4 and a decrease in molar ratio from 1:8 to 1:4 resulted in about a 100% increase of capacity. Compared to [TBAC][AP] DESs, the [TEAC][AP] 1:4 and [TBAB][AP] 1:4 exhibited higher CO2 uptake, though the best results were obtained for [TBAB][AP].

Abstract
The release of certain gases to the atmosphere is controlled in many countries owing to their negative impact on the environment and human health. These gases include carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3). Considering the major contribution of greenhouse gases to global warming and climate change, mitigation of these gases is one of the world's primary challenges. Nevertheless, the commercial processes used to capture these gases suffer from several drawbacks, including the use of volatile solvents, generation of hazardous byproducts, and high-energy demand. Research in green chemistry has resulted in the synthesis of potentially green solvents that are non-toxic, efficient, and environmentally friendly. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are novel solvents that upon wise choice of their constituents can be green and tunable with high biocompatibility, high degradability, and low cost. Consequently, the capture of toxic gases by DESs is promising and environmentally friendly and has attracted much attention during the last decade. Here, we review recent results on capture of these gases using different types of DESs. The effect of different parameters, such as chemical structure, molar ratio, temperature, and pressure, on capture efficiency is discussed.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have received significant attention as potential extracting agents in recent years due to their favorable characteristics including low cost, easy preparation and environmentally safe starting materials. Experimentally screening for highly efficient DESs meeting various requirements for natural gas sweetening remains a challenging task. Thus, an extensive database of estimated Henry’s law constants (Hi) and solubilities (xi) of CO2 in 170 different DESs at 25°C has been constructed using the COSMO-RS method to select potential DESs. Based on the COSMO-RS study, three DESs, namely tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB)+polyethylene glycol (PEG-8) (on a molar basis 1:4), TBAB+octanoic acid (OCT) (1:4), and methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (MTPB)+PEG-8 (1:10), were chosen for further experimentation up to 2 bar at 25°C using a vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE) apparatus. Reliable thermophysical properties were determined experimentally, and a detailed equilibrium-based model was developed for one of the glycol-based DESs (i.e., TBAB+PEG-8 (1:4)). This information is an essential prerequisite for carrying out process simulations of natural gas sweetening plants using ASPEN PLUS. The simulation results for the proposed DES were compared to those of monoethylene glycol (MEG). Here, we find that the aqueous TBAB+PEG-8 (1:4) solvent shows ~60% lower total energy consumption and higher CO2 removal when compared to those using the MEG solvent.

Abstract
With steady growth on CO2 emission over the years, removal of CO2 from the environment is a critical issue in preventing global warming and climate change. Due to negligible volatility and remarkable thermal stability, ionic liquids have become potential media for CO2 capture. However, their drawbacks such as high price, toxicity and inefficient energy consumption have severely limited their applications in CO2 capture. Here, a promising deep eutectic solvent was synthesized by a one-pot method, simply mixing NH4Cl with monoethanolamine (MEA) at 30 °C for 30 min to form [MEAHCl][MEA] confirmed by 1H NMR. [MEAHCl][MEA] with EG exhibits a rapid initial kinetics of CO2 absorption, around 22.5 wt% within 10 min. It also has good thermal-stability, high tolerance to water contents, economically feasibility of regeneration and robust performance in recycle. This novel capture system which can be prepared on-site is feasible for industrialization and offers an efficient, inexpensive and safe system for CO2 capture.

Abstract
CO2 capture and sequestration is an energy-intensive industry to deal with the global greenhouse effect. Membrane separation is considered a cost-effective method to mitigate the emission of CO2 . Though good separation performance and stability have been reported, supported ionic liquid membranes are still not widely applied for CO2 separation due to the high cost. As a novel analogous solvent to ionic liquid, deep eutectic solvent retains the excellent merits of ionic liquid and is cheap with facile preparation. Herein, a highly CO2 -philic separation membrane is constructed by nanoconfining choline chloride/ethylene glycol (ChCl/EG) deep eutectic solvent into graphene oxide nanoslits. Molecular dynamic simulation results indicate that the confinement makes a difference to the structure of the nanoconfined ChCl/EG liquid from their bulk, which remarkably facilitates CO2 transport. By tuning the molar ratio of ChCl/EG and thickness of the membrane, the resultant membrane exhibits outstanding separation performance for CO2 with excellent selectivity over other light gases, good long-term durability, and thermal stability. This makes it a promising membrane for selective CO2 separation.
