Guanidine compounds for removal of oxyanions from aqueous solutions and for carbon dioxide capture

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1650814
Methods for removing oxyanions from water according to the following steps: (i) dissolving an oxyanion precipitating compound into the aqueous source to result in precipitation of an oxyanion salt of the oxyanion precipitating compound; and (ii) removing the oxyanion salt from the water containing the oxyanion to result in water substantially reduced in concentration of the oxyanion; wherein the oxyanion precipitating compound has the following composition: wherein A is a ring-containing moiety and Xm− is an anionic species with a magnitude of charge m. The invention employs bis-iminoguanidinium compounds according to Formula (1a) as well as neutral precursor compounds according to Formula (1), which can be used for removing undesirable species from aqueous solutions or air, such as removal of sulfate from water and carbon dioxide from air.
