We\nuse a computer aided molecular design (CAMD) methodology for exploring\nthe use of ionic liquids (ILs) as solvents for CO2 capture. The CAMD\nformulation is solved as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP)\nproblem\, the objective is to obtain an optimal molecular structure of\nan ionic liquid for CO2 capture from a post-combustion (PC) gas stream\n(GS).\n DTSTAMP:20250519T011526Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
