[0003] Regarding CO2 capture, the mature technology at present is chemical absorption, with fast absorption, mature process, large processing capacity and other advantages, but there are high energy consumption, limited further energy saving and consumption reduction space, complex process, equipment corrosion and many other defects. Compared with chemical adsorption method, it has low energy consumption, simple process, no equipment corrosion and many other advantages. Solid adsorbent includes calcium-based adsorbent, metal organic framework (MOFs), zeolite, hypercrosslinked polymer, carbon material, alkali metal carbonate, amine-based functionalized adsorbent, etc. The polymer material prepared by emulsion template method has high porosity, certain mechanical strength, and the internal pores are three-dimensional interconnected pore structure with pore size of 0.1-300 μm. The pore size and pore size distribution can be adjusted to be appropriate and uniform. The above characteristics make the emulsion template polymer as a solid adsorbent carrier have outstanding advantages.
[0004] CN106589201A discloses a hydrophilic modification method of polystyrene material and its product, which bonds PVA to the surface of polystyrene microspheres by chloromethylating the surface of polystyrene microspheres, which can reduce the specific adsorption of biological macromolecules, and PVA contains a large number of hydroxyl groups, which is convenient for coupling specific ligands to meet the requirements of different separation modes. But the hydrophilic modification process is complex, the steps are tedious and difficult to control.
[0005] CN111825796A discloses a polyacrylate composite material for CO2 adsorption and a preparation method thereof. In the preparation process, the polymer emulsion is added to the dispersion phase, dispersed into balls at a certain speed, and then the reducing agent is added after stabilization. After solidification, drying and separation, spherical porous polyacrylate beads are prepared. After amine grafting and epoxy resin surface capping treatment, a polyacrylate composite material for CO2 adsorption is obtained.

[0110] Step three: use a drop ball shaping device to shape and age the shaped emulsion, wherein the structural diagram of the drop ball shaping device is as shown in Figure 1 From Figure 1 it can be seen that the drop ball shaping device comprises a shaped emulsion storage tank 1, a peristaltic pump 2 and a shaped column 4 with a height of 1.3m, the shaped column 4 is a jacketed glass tube with openings at the upper and lower ends, a mechanical stirring device 5 is arranged at the upper end opening of the jacketed glass tube, a double crescent stirring paddle 51 is arranged in the mechanical stirring device 5, an embedded drip tray 3 is sealingly arranged at the lower end opening of the jacketed glass tube, and the embedded drip tray 3 is provided with a plurality of drop ball shaping needles 31 which can extend into the shaped column 4;
[0111] The outlet of the shaped emulsion storage tank 1 is connected to the inlet of the embedded drip tray 3 through a pipeline via the peristaltic pump 2;
[0112] Therefore, the drop ball shaping device as shown above is used to shape and age the shaped emulsion, which specifically comprises:
[0113] Prepare a water solution 6 of dispersant, which is a mixed water solution of polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol with a mass concentration of 1.5% in this embodiment, and add it into the jacketed glass tube and the mechanical stirring device 5, while ensuring that the double crescent stirring paddle 51 is below the liquid level of the mixed water solution of polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol, and then heat to 70℃ through the jacketed water bath equipment;
[0114] The shaped emulsion is delivered into the embedded drop tray by a peristaltic pump and is dropped into the jacketed glass tube by a drop ball shaping needle (inner diameter of 0.41 mm). The shaped emulsion droplet continuously floats in the jacketed glass tube. During the floating process, the shaped emulsion droplet forms a spherical shape under the surface tension of water and undergoes polymerization and preliminary solidification. After the preliminary solidification, the small ball floats to the upper part of the jacketed glass tube and approaches the liquid level of the mixed aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol. Under the mechanical stirring (speed of 100 r / min) of the double crescent stirring paddle 51, the small ball continues to rotate and stay in the aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol and undergoes sufficient polymerization to ensure complete shaping.
[0115] After the shaping is completed, the small ball is taken out and dried in an oven at 70°C for 6 hours to prepare a polymer small ball, i.e., the polyacrylate microsphere material.
[0116] Example 4
[0117] The present example provides a polyacrylate microsphere material prepared by a drop ball shaping method comprising the following specific steps:
[0118] Step one: 9.8 g of tert-butyl acrylate, 1.4 g of tert-butyl methacrylate and 5.7 g of trimethylolpropane triacrylate are weighed and added into a mixed solution of cyclohexane and ethyl acetate accounting for 55% of the total volume of the organic phase, followed by sequentially adding 2.6 g of span 20, 1.2 g of BPO and 0.7 g of p-nonyl phenol, and then ultrasonic cleaning for 7 min in an ultrasonic cleaner to dissolve and mix uniformly to obtain a uniform organic phase;
[0119] Step two: a certain amount of deionized water (accounting for 60% of the total volume of the emulsion obtained by sufficient emulsification) is weighed as an aqueous phase. The dissolved oil phase, i.e., the uniform organic phase, is placed in an ice bath. Under the speed of 3000 r / min of the high-speed stirrer, the aqueous phase is slowly added to the oil phase. After the drop is completed, the speed is increased to 6000 r / min and stirred for 8 min for sufficient emulsification. Then 2.6 g of reducing agent N,N-dimethylaniline is added and stirred for 1 min to obtain a shaped emulsion;
[0120] Step three: the drop ball shaping device is used for drop ball shaping and aging of the shaped emulsion. The structural diagram of the drop ball shaping device is shown in Figure 1 The shaped emulsion is delivered into the embedded drop tray by a peristaltic pump and is dropped into the jacketed glass tube by a drop ball shaping needle (inner diameter of 0.41 mm). The shaped emulsion droplet continuously floats in the jacketed glass tube. During the floating process, the shaped emulsion droplet forms a spherical shape under the surface tension of water and undergoes polymerization and preliminary solidification. After the preliminary solidification, the small ball floats to the upper part of the jacketed glass tube and approaches the liquid level of the mixed aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol. Under the mechanical stirring (speed of 100 r / min) of the double crescent stirring paddle 51, the small ball continues to rotate and stay in the aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol and undergoes sufficient polymerization to ensure complete shaping. Figure 1As can be seen, the drop ball forming device comprises a forming emulsion storage tank 1, a peristaltic pump 2 and a forming column 4 with a height of 1.7 m, the forming column 4 being a jacketed glass tube with openings at the upper and lower ends, a mechanical stirring device 5 is arranged at the upper end opening of the jacketed glass tube, a double crescent stirring paddle 51 is arranged in the mechanical stirring device 5, and an embedded drip tray 3 is sealingly arranged at the lower end opening of the jacketed glass tube, the embedded drip tray 3 is provided with a plurality of drop ball forming needles 31 capable of extending into the forming column 4;
[0121] The outlet of the forming emulsion storage tank 1 is connected to the inlet of the embedded drip tray 3 through a pipeline via the peristaltic pump 2;
[0122] Therefore, the drop ball forming device as shown above is used to perform drop ball forming and aging on the forming emulsion, specifically including:
[0123] A water solution 6 of a dispersing agent is prepared, which is a water solution of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with a mass concentration of 1.5% in this embodiment, and is added into the jacketed glass tube and the mechanical stirring device 5, while ensuring that the double crescent stirring paddle 51 is located below the liquid level of the water solution of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and then heated to 70℃ by a jacketed water bath device;
[0124] The forming emulsion is delivered into the embedded drip tray by the peristaltic pump and is dropped into the jacketed glass tube by the drop ball forming needles (with an inner diameter of 0.51 mm), and the forming emulsion droplets continuously float upwards in the jacketed glass tube, and form spherical shapes and undergo polymerization and preliminary solidification under the surface tension of the forming emulsion droplets in water during the floating process, and when the preliminarily solidified small balls float to the upper part of the jacketed glass tube and approach the liquid level position of the water solution of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), they will continue to rotate and stay in the water solution of polyvinyl alcohol under the mechanical stirring (at a speed of 200 r / min) of the double crescent stirring paddle 51 and perform sufficient polymerization to ensure complete forming;
[0125] After the forming is completed, the small balls are taken out and dried in an oven at 70℃ for 6 hours to prepare polymer small balls, i.e., the polyacrylate microsphere material.
[0126] Example 5
[0127] The polyacrylate microsphere material is prepared by a drop ball forming method comprising the following specific steps:
[0128] Step one: take 10 g of tert-butyl acrylate, 4.3 g of tert-butyl methacrylate and 10 g of trimethylolpropane triacrylate into a mixture of cyclohexane and ethyl acetate, which accounts for 60% of the total volume of the organic phase, then add 2.8 g of P123 and 2.0 g of span80 to form a combined emulsifier, 2.4 g of BPO and 0.7 g of cetyl alcohol and 0.5 g of hexanol to form a combined co-emulsifier, then ultrasonic in the ultrasonic cleaner for 10 min to make it dissolve and mix uniformly, and get a uniform organic phase;
[0129] Step two: take a certain amount of deionized water (65% of the total volume of the emulsion obtained by sufficient emulsification) as the water phase, and place the dissolved oil phase, i.e. the uniform organic phase, in an ice bath, under the speed of 3000 r / min of the high-speed stirrer, slowly drop the water phase into the oil phase, after dropping, increase the speed to 5000 r / min and stir for 10 min to emulsify fully, then add 4.8 g of combined reducing agent (2.4 g of N,N,N,N-tetramethyl ethylenediamine and 2.4 g of sodium sulfite), continue to stir for 1 min to get the shaped emulsion;
[0130] Step three: use the drop ball shaping device to shape and age the shaped emulsion, wherein the structural diagram of the drop ball shaping device is as shown in Figure 1 From Figure 1 it can be seen that the drop ball shaping device comprises a shaped emulsion storage tank 1, a peristaltic pump 2 and a shaped column 4 with a height of 1.7 m, the shaped column 4 is a jacketed glass tube with openings at the upper and lower ends, a mechanical stirring device 5 is arranged at the upper end opening of the jacketed glass tube, a cross-shaped stirring paddle 51 is arranged in the mechanical stirring device 5, an embedded drip tray 3 is sealingly arranged at the lower end opening of the jacketed glass tube, and the embedded drip tray 3 is provided with a plurality of drop ball shaping needles 31 which can extend into the shaped column 4;
[0131] The outlet of the shaped emulsion storage tank 1 is connected to the inlet of the embedded drip tray 3 through a pipeline via the peristaltic pump 2;
[0132] Therefore, the drop ball shaping device as shown above is used to shape and age the shaped emulsion, which specifically includes:
[0133] Prepare an aqueous solution 6 of dispersant, which is an aqueous solution of polyethylene glycol with a mass concentration of 2.0% in this embodiment, and add it into the jacketed glass tube and the mechanical stirring device 5, while ensuring that the cross-shaped stirring paddle 51 is below the liquid level of the aqueous solution of polyethylene glycol, then heat to 80℃ through the jacketed water bath equipment;
[0134] The shaped emulsion is delivered by peristaltic pump into the embedded drop tray and is dropped into the jacketed glass tube by a drop ball shaping needle (0.6 mm in inner diameter). The shaped emulsion droplet in the jacketed glass tube keeps floating up. During the floating process, the shaped emulsion droplet forms a spherical shape under the surface tension of water and initiates polymerization and preliminary solidification. When the preliminarily solidified small ball floats to the upper part of the jacketed glass tube and approaches the liquid level of the aqueous polyethylene glycol solution, it will continue to rotate and stay in the aqueous polyethylene glycol solution under the mechanical stirring (300 r / min) of the cross-shaped stirring paddle 51 and fully polymerize to ensure complete shaping.
[0135] After the shaping is completed, the small ball is taken out and dried in an oven at 80°C for 4 hours to prepare a polymer small ball, i.e., the polyacrylate microsphere material.
[0136] Comparative Example 1
[0137] This comparative example provides a polyacrylate material, which is also prepared by a drop ball shaping method. The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that:
[0138] The deionized water accounts for 30% of the total volume of the emulsion obtained by full emulsification.
[0139] Comparative Example 2
[0140] This comparative example provides a polyacrylate material, which is also prepared by a drop ball shaping method. The only difference between this comparative example and Example 2 is that:
[0141] During the preparation of the shaped emulsion, the low-temperature environment is not used, but the room temperature environment is used, i.e., the dissolved oil phase, i.e., the uniform organic phase, is not placed in an ice bath.
[0142] Comparative Example 3
[0143] This comparative example provides a polyacrylate material, which is also prepared by a drop ball shaping method. The only difference between this comparative example and Example 3 is that:
[0144] The mechanical stirring device is not installed above the shaping column.
[0145] Comparative Example 4
[0146] This comparative example provides a polyacrylate material, which is also prepared by a drop ball shaping method. The only difference between this comparative example and Example 4 is that:
[0147] The shaping liquid added in the shaping column is pure water, not an aqueous PVA solution.
[0148] Comparative Example 5A
[0149] This comparative example provides a polyacrylate material which is also prepared by the drop ball forming method, the difference between this comparative example and Example 5 is only that:
[0150] The forming column is connected with a water bath device with a jacket, but heated to 40°C.
[0151] Comparative Example 5B
[0152] This comparative example provides a polyacrylate material which is also prepared by the drop ball forming method, the difference between this comparative example and Example 5 is only that:
[0153] The forming column is connected with a water bath device with a jacket, but heated to 90°C.
[0154] Comparative Example 6
[0155] This comparative example provides a polyacrylate material which is also prepared by the drop ball forming method, the difference between this comparative example and Example 5 is only that:
[0156] Step one: weigh 10 g of tert-butyl acrylate, 2.5 g of tert-butyl methacrylate and 10 g of trimethylolpropane triacrylate, add to 40% of the total volume of toluene, then add 1.2 g of P123, 0.3 g of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and 0.3 g of cetyl alcohol in turn, and then ultrasonic cleaning machine for 5 min to make it dissolve and mix uniformly to get a uniform organic phase;
[0157] Step two: weigh a certain amount of deionized water (45% of the total volume of the emulsion obtained by sufficient emulsification) as the water phase, and place the dissolved oil phase, i.e. the uniform organic phase, in an ice bath. Under the speed of 1000 r / min of the high-speed stirrer, slowly add the water phase to the oil phase, and then increase the speed to 9000 r / min and stir for 5 min to emulsify fully. Then add 1.2 g of reducing agent N,N-dimethylaniline and continue to stir for 2 min to obtain a forming emulsion;
[0158] Step three: measure 150 mL of water and add to a 250 mL three-necked flask, and add 0.15 g of ammonium persulfate and 1.5 mL of polyvinyl alcohol dispersant. Stir with an electric stirrer at a speed of 300 rpm and heat in a constant temperature water bath at 45°C. After 10 min of constant temperature, add the prepared forming emulsion to the above three-necked flask, which will disperse into spherical shape under the action of its own interfacial tension. Continue to stir for 10 min, then take out the small balls and dry them in an oven at 60°C for 6 hours to prepare macroporous polymer balls, i.e. polyacrylate materials.
[0159] The polyacrylate microspheres prepared in Examples 1-5 of this invention have essentially the same appearance, all being regular spherical particles. Only the appearance images of the polyacrylate microspheres prepared in Examples 2 and 5 are provided here, as shown in the figures below. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown.
[0160] Physical images of the polyacrylate microspheres provided in Comparative Examples 1, 5A, and 5B are shown below. Figures 4-6 As shown. From Figures 4-6 As can be seen, the polyacrylate microspheres provided by Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 5A and Comparative Example 5B have significant differences in appearance, and most of them are ellipsoidal or irregularly shaped particles with poor sphericity.
[0161] Additionally, the scanning electron microscope image of the polyacrylate microsphere material prepared in Example 1 of this invention is shown below. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown. From Figure 7 and Figure 8 As can be seen, the internal details of the polyacrylate microsphere material are revealed, showing a large number of macroporous structures within it.
[0162] Furthermore, the molding effects of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-6 of the present invention, as well as the bulk density and mechanical strength of the prepared polyacrylate microspheres or polyacrylate material samples, are shown in Table 1 below.
[0163] Table 1
[0164]
[0165] As can be seen from the molding effect data shown in Table 1 above, the yields of Examples 1-5 of the present invention are all above 60%, with good molding effect and uniform particle size (the higher the yield, the more uniform the particle size), and polyacrylate microspheres with low bulk density that are suitable for fluidized bed processes can be obtained.
[0166] In Comparative Example 1, the reduced proportion of deionized water resulted in a high viscosity of the emulsion, making the emulsion droplets prone to stringing and tailing, and difficult to form spheres, with the yield dropping to 20%. This indicates that in order to ensure good molding results, the aqueous phase should not account for too little of the total volume of the emulsion.
[0167] In Comparative Example 2, the molding emulsion was not prepared in a low-temperature environment, which caused the molding emulsion to rapidly polymerize into a solid before molding, thus making it impossible to further mold. This indicates that the molding emulsion should be prepared in a low-temperature environment to prolong its polymerization time.
[0168] Comparative Example 3: No mechanical stirring device is set up above the forming column, which results in that the forming emulsion droplets cannot stay in the forming liquid, i.e. the polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution, for a long enough time, and the forming emulsion droplets float to the surface of the forming liquid and break before solidifying, which shows that a mechanical stirring device must be set up above the forming column during the forming process of the forming emulsion droplets to ensure that the forming emulsion droplets are completely solidified in the forming liquid.
[0169] In Comparative Example 4, the forming liquid added in the forming column is pure water, and the yield is greatly reduced due to the fact that no polyvinyl alcohol dispersant is added, which shows that a certain concentration of dispersant must be added to the forming liquid to ensure that the forming emulsion droplets are successfully formed and remain well dispersed.
[0170] Comparative Examples 5A and 5B respectively investigate the suitable forming temperature range. As shown in Table 1 above, when the forming temperature is too low, the solidification speed of the forming emulsion droplets is slowed down, and the forming emulsion droplets are still in the form of liquid droplets without hardness when they rise to the mechanical stirring device, which are easily broken by the stirring paddle and the particle size is reduced. When the forming temperature is too high, part of the organic phase in the forming emulsion droplets reaches the boiling point and escapes in the form of gas, which results in poor sphericity of the final small balls, as shown in Table 1 above. Therefore, the forming temperature should be controlled in the range of 50-80℃. Figures 5-6
[0171] Comparative Example 6: The polyacrylate microsphere material sample is prepared by the traditional emulsion suspension polymerization method, and the results show that the yield is only 38%, which is increased by 42% compared with Comparative Example 6, which shows that the droplet forming method provided by the present application can effectively improve the yield of the small ball carrier and ensure good sphericity.
[0172] As can be seen from Table 1 above, the polyacrylate microsphere materials prepared in Examples 1-5 have higher mechanical strength, which can increase the mechanical strength of the polyacrylate microsphere material by more than 15% compared with the existing emulsion suspension polymerization method, and the polyacrylate microsphere material is not easy to be abraded during the operation of the fluidized bed.
[0173] Application Example
[0174] To further evaluate the performance of the polyacrylate microsphere material samples prepared by the examples and the comparative examples of the present application as solid adsorbent carriers for fluidized bed CO2 adsorption, in this application example, a certain amount of organic amine is loaded on the polyacrylate microsphere material samples prepared by the examples 1-5 and the comparative examples 1-6 of the present application by using physical impregnation method and the adsorption performance is evaluated. The specific loading steps are as follows: 2g of the polyacrylate microsphere material samples prepared by the examples 1-5 and the comparative examples 1-6 are weighed respectively and placed in a round-bottom flask, 15g of pentaethylenehexamine is added, and the rotary evaporation instrument is used for rotary impregnation at a temperature of 60℃ for 6h, after the impregnation is completed, a small amount of alcohol is used for washing, and then drying is carried out at a temperature of 40℃ for 10h. Finally, the CO2 adsorption capacity of the polyacrylate microsphere material samples loaded with pentaethylenehexamine is tested by using a physical adsorption instrument under the conditions of a temperature of 25℃ and a pressure of 1bar, and the specific results are shown in Table 2 below.
[0175] Table 2
[0176] Item Adsorption capacity (mmol / g) Item Adsorption capacity (mmol / g) Example 1 3.8 Comparative Example 1 1.9 Example 2 3.5 Comparative Example 2 Unshaped Example 3 3.6 Comparative Example 3 Unshaped Example 4 3.3 Comparative Example 4 1.1 Example 5 3.2 Comparative Example 5A 2.1 Comparative Example 5B 2.6 Comparative Example 6 3.1
[0177] As can be seen from the above Table 2, under the same conditions, the CO2 adsorption capacity of the polyacrylate microsphere material samples prepared by the examples of the present application as solid adsorbent carriers for fluidized bed CO2 adsorption is obviously higher than that of the polyacrylate microsphere material samples prepared in the comparative examples, which indicates that the polyacrylate microsphere material samples prepared by using the drop ball forming method provided by the present application have more excellent CO2 adsorption performance.
[0178] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, which cannot limit the scope of the present application, so the replacement of equivalent components or equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the present application should still belong to the scope covered by the present patent. In addition, the technical features in the present application can be freely combined with each other, between technical features and technical features, between technical features and technical inventions, and between technical inventions and technical inventions.
