Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) generated from transportation, manufacturing, and energy systems is a main driver of climate change and associated consequences (e.g., extreme weather) . According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2022, CO 2 emissions reached a new record of 36.8 Gt, representing an annual growth of 0.9% compared to 2021 .The continuous escalation of CO 2 emissions underscores the urgent need for efficient technologies aimed at mitigating, and potentially reversing, the adverse effects of human activity on the environment. In this context, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies stand out as pivotal technologies . Chemical solvent scrubbing, an important CCS technology, has undergone extensive investigation . In these technologies, amine-based solvents, particularly monoethanolamine (MEA), stand out for their remarkable CO 2 solubility, low viscosity, and satisfactory thermal stability . However, MEA-based processes often require significant energy for solvent recovery, and they are prone to considerable solvent losses and potential equipment corrosion due to the presence of SO 2 and O 2 in the flue gases . Additionally, the synthesis of MEA from ammonia is, in itself, associated with substantial CO 2 emissions; this affects the overall life-cycle CO 2 emissions of the capture process . Research also indicates that MEA-based processes have impacts on human toxicity and water eutrophication .
