Abstract

Carbon dioxide capture technologies will be important for counteracting difficult-to-abate greenhouse gas emissions if humanity is to limit global warming to acceptable levels. Electrochemically mediated CO2 capture has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional amine scrubbing, offering a potentially cost effective, environmentally friendly and energy efficient approach. Here we report an electrochemical cell for CO2 capture based on pH swing cycles driven through proton-coupled electron transfer of a developed phenazine derivative, 2,2′-(phenazine-1,8-diyl)bis(ethane-1-sulfonate) (1,8-ESP), with high aqueous solubility (>1.35 M) over pH range 0.00–14.90. The system operates with a high capture capacity of 0.86–1.41 mol l−1, a low energetic cost of 36–55 kJ mol−1 and an extremely low capacity fade rate of
