Integrated Carbon Capture and Conversion of CO2 into materials (IC3M) is an attractive solution to meet the global energy demand, reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and lower CO2 emissions. Herein, using a water-lean post combustion capture solvent, (N-(2-ethoxyethyl)-3-morpholinopropan-1-amine) (2-EEMPA), >90% conversion of captured CO2 to hydrocarbons, mostly methane, is achieved in the presence of a heterogenous Ru catalysts under relatively mild reaction conditions (170 ?C and
