Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of capturing CO2 in combustion flue gas, and in particular to a device and method for adsorbing CO2 based on light-heat synergistic low-carbon green modified biochar. Background Art
[0002] Since the Industrial Revolution, fossil fuels have provided humanity with an irreplaceable source of energy. This use of fossil fuels inevitably produces greenhouse gases, leading to global warming, rising sea levels, and frequent natural disasters such as floods, droughts, and waterlogging, severely disrupting Earth's ecological balance. Consequently, CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) has become a research hotspot in both science and industry, and the active research and development of technologies to reduce CO2 emissions from combustion flue gases is of great strategic significance.
[0003] As of now, the mainstream CO2 capture technologies developed at home and abroad mainly include membrane separation, liquid phase absorption, adsorption, oxygen-enriched combustion, low-temperature separation, chemical looping combustion, hydrothermal and photo / electrochemical methods.
[0004] Membrane separation, with its advantages of simplicity and zero waste generation, is a promising CO2 capture technology. However, it currently faces practical challenges, such as short membrane life and low separation purity. Low-temperature separation offers advantages such as simplicity, environmental friendliness, and suitability for large-scale processing, but suffers from high energy consumption and high-pressure operation, and is primarily used for separating high-concentration CO2. Liquid absorption captures CO2 using various organic solvents, such as alcoholamines, ammonia, and ionic liquids. The absorbent is then activated and regenerated through heating and desorption processes, allowing for CO2 separation. While this method theoretically allows for absorbent recycling, practical applications have been plagued by significant reagent loss and high regeneration energy consumption. Some reagents also corrode equipment. Oxygen-enriched combustion and chemical looping combustion capture and separation primarily rely on novel combustion conditions and methods, but these methods can impact existing combustion equipment and operating conditions, making them unsuitable for treating the vast inventory of traditional combustion equipment, such as boilers and kilns. Emerging carbon reduction technologies such as hydrothermal and photo / electrochemical methods are still in the laboratory exploration stage and are still some distance away from industrial application. The adsorption removal method has attracted active attention from domestic and international academic and engineering communities due to its advantages such as the recyclability of adsorbents and the generation of no waste liquid during the removal process. It has become one of the most promising CO2 capture technologies. The most widely used adsorption separation technology for CO2 is to use activated carbon as an adsorbent to adsorb CO2 from flue gas, and then regenerate the adsorbent and recover CO2 by heating and desorption. However, this technology has shortcomings such as extremely large activated carbon consumption and high application costs, making it impossible to achieve large-scale industrial application. The development of low-cost adsorbents is a key link in the application of this technology.
[0005] Biochar is a pyrolysis product derived from agricultural and forestry waste or organic industrial waste. It has the advantages of a wide source of raw materials, low cost and environmental friendliness. However, raw biochar that has not been activated and modified usually has the disadvantages of small specific surface area and poor active sites, making it difficult to obtain satisfactory CO2 adsorption capacity. In order to improve the CO2 adsorption performance of biochar, domestic and foreign scholars have used various physical and chemical activation / modification methods to improve the pore structure of biochar or induce active sites on the surface of biochar to produce a special high-activity surface. Activating biochar with high temperature or microwave in a special atmosphere can effectively improve the pore structure and specific surface area of biochar, but the improvement of the crucial active sites is very limited. At present, most research work focuses on using various chemical methods to improve the surface active sites of biochar, and the most studied ideas mainly include: (1) using organic alcohol ammonium, ammonia or ionic liquid reagents for activation modification; (2) using various metal or non-metal elements for doping modification; (3) using strong acid or strong oxidant for oxidation modification. Although these activation modification methods can effectively increase the specific surface area or surface active sites of biochar, they all suffer from high costs, poor treatment effects, secondary pollution, or high energy consumption. Therefore, actively exploring and developing new, efficient, and green biochar modification methods is of great scientific and practical significance. Summary of the Invention

The active sites are used to adsorb and capture CO2 in the flue gas. The CO2 is desorbed by heating and recovered for storage or utilization. The specific process is expressed as follows:
[0024]
[0025]
[0026] The biochar that loses its active sites after adsorption is passed into a bag separator for separation, while the combustion flue gas after CO2 removal is discharged into the atmosphere.
[0027] In the above-mentioned method for adsorbing CO2, the biochar separated in the bag separator is re-introduced into the photochemical-thermochemical synergistic modification tower through the first outlet for recycling, and then modified and regenerated through equations (1)-(6) to regain the ability to adsorb CO2.

[0034] Secondly, the present invention describes a device and method for adsorbing CO2 based on light-heat synergistic low-carbon green modified biochar. The CO2 adsorption process is to use biochar to adsorb CO2 in combustion flue gas in a mixed reaction tower. The mixed reaction tower has an extremely strong gas-solid mass transfer rate, which is an order of magnitude higher than the traditional fixed bed and fluidized bed mass transfer rate, which can greatly improve the CO2 adsorption efficiency and reduce the reactor volume.
[0035] Thirdly, the dry removal technology used in the present invention does not produce any wastewater or waste liquid in the entire process, and there is no leakage of reagents.

[0036] Finally, the present invention utilizes flue gas waste heat and ultraviolet light to synergistically induce highly active free radicals to modify biochar, and adopts a low-energy mixed reaction tower to adsorb CO2. Since the ultraviolet radiation intensity is very low, and the gravity heat pipe quickly absorbs the waste heat in the flue gas and then radiates heat on its surface to form a light-heat synergistic activation effect with ultraviolet light, the energy consumption of this method is more than 3 orders of magnitude lower than that of low-temperature separation technology. Therefore, the energy consumption required for the operation of the entire device is extremely low, which has the beneficial effects of energy saving and low carbon. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
