- Outcome of an EPSRC Doctoral Training Grant and a collaboration between Aberdeen, the Chemistry Department at University of Torino (Italy) and Colorado School of Mines (USA). Combines experiments with computational modelling and presents for the first time a faceted sorbent MgO(111) for carbon capture that enhances CO2 adsorption. The findings have already been used for enhancement in ammonia production by replacing the polycrystalline MgO support with the MgO(111) surface in Ru-based catalysts, as shown by the Wolfson Catalysis Centre (University of Oxford). The paper is cited throughout a broad spectrum of disciplines: catalysis, energy, green and physical chemistry, and materials.
