Simon Beaumont – Past Areas of Work:
Desirable CO2 utilisation strategies we are investigating:
In situ synchrotron X-ray spectroscopy of
Fischer-Tropsch /CO2 hydrogenation catalysts.
Co catalyzed reduction – best current industrial present is Cu
catalyzed methanol production using CO2 in feedstock – also
produce Fischer Tropsch products using Cobalt.
Also currently exploring small Rh nanomaterials for use as
catalysts for CO2 hydroformylation

What are Ionic Liquids?
• Ionic liquids (ILs) are organic salts with low melting points
and includes salts that are solid at room temperature but
that melt below around 120°C
• As salts, they cannot evaporate, have high stability and
excellent recyclability
• The strength of interaction can be tailored to
application: Separation, Reaction and Catalysis

4CU ionic liquid activities (SP3)
• Our research currently looks at a variety of ionic materials,
both liquid and solid with several avenues being explored:
• CO2 uptake at high pressure using ionic solids
• Low viscosity ionic liquids for gas stripping/sweetening
• Novel liquid-gas contacting methods
• Scale-up work (1 tonne CO2 /day)
• Fuels synthesis is being investigated from late 2014, with
first-stage CO2 to liquid fuels and plastics experimentation
underway
