Molten salts facilitate the reaction of CO 2 with MgO by providing an alternate pathway to traditional gas‐solid reactions. Molten salts partially dissolve bulk MgO and provide activated species accessible to CO 2 at gas‐solid‐liquid triple phase boundaries. This methodology is also applicable to other basic metal oxides and molten salts, inspiring the design of new absorbent systems.
