Based on International Energy Agency studies, achievement of 450 ppm CO2-equivalent emission target in global emission means that the CO2 emissions in 2050 must be reduced to %50 of 2005 level, and this implies that a portfolio of emission reduction policies and strategies need to be exploited through current century. At the present time, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Technology is a dominant strategy among all the long-term carbon abatement strategies in many countries. Nevertheless, its potential as a climate mitigating option will be proved, only if it is implemented in the countries which are developing at a great pace and taking advantage of fossil fuels in order to afford their... 

Copper supported on polymer-coated magnetic nanoparticles was designed and synthesized as a separable heterogeneous catalyst. The catalyst was fully characterized using several techniques such as Fourier transform infrared and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopies, scanning and transmission electron microscopies, X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometry, thermogravimetric analysis and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. All results showed that copper was successfully supported on the polymer-coated magnetic nanoparticles. Also, results showed that the synthesized material can be used as an efficient catalyst for the preparation of a series of 1,4-disubstituted...

A new complex of copper (II) was synthesized through the reaction of a Schiff-base, 4-(((2-hydroxyethyl)imino)methyl)phenol, with CuCl2·2H2O and, then, immobilization on SBA-15 support. Both immobilized and free copper complexes were characterized using different techniques such as FT-IR, elemental analysis (CHN), SEM, XRD and TEM, and were utilized as catalysts in one-pot azide-alkyne cycloaddition (AAC) reaction. Both catalysts showed high activity in conversion of various substrates to corresponding triazole compounds. The reaction was performed in water under mild condition and without any extra additives. The prepared catalyst was recovered and reused in 5 runs without any significant...
