Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of carbon dioxide capture, in particular to a foamed metal loaded bismuth oxide and a preparation method and air capture application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Under the aggravation of global warming, carbon capture, storage and utilization (CCUS) technology has become a key support, among which direct air capture (DAC) technology can capture CO2 for dispersed emission sources, and becomes an important supplement to achieve carbon neutralization.
[0003] DAC technology includes alkaline hydroxide solution DAC technology, amine solution DAC technology, amino acid solution / BIGs technology, solid amine adsorbent DAC technology, MOFs material DAC technology, and variable humidity adsorption technology. The DAC technology widely used in industry at present is mainly alkaline hydroxide DAC technology, which converts Na2CO3 after absorbing CO2 by KOH or NaOH, and then adds Ca(OH)2 to generate precipitate CaCO3, and finally decomposes at high temperature to produce CO2 and CaO, and the adsorbent can be recycled in the whole DAC technology.
[0004] However, DAC technology has defects in CO2 desorption temperature. The desorption temperature of the adsorbent of the existing DAC technology metal oxide is high, as shown in Table 1. Calcium oxide has the largest desorption amount as an adsorbent, but the material is extremely easy to sinter after high-temperature decomposition for many times, thereby causing material deactivation. Magnesium oxide also has a high desorption amount, but its adsorption kinetics and specific surface area are low. Lithium zirconate / silicate has a high desorption amount, but the cost of Li is high, and it also has a high desorption temperature. Therefore, reducing the desorption temperature of the material can greatly reduce the energy consumption of DAC, thereby greatly saving the cost.

[0055] Comparative Example 2
[0056] The present comparative example is a commercially available calcium oxide product, which is used as a comparison of the desorption temperature of the product of the present application and the existing DAC technology.
[0057] Comparative Example 3
[0058] The present comparative example is a commercially available magnesium oxide product, which is used as a comparison of the desorption temperature of the product of the present application and the existing DAC technology.
[0059] In order to better understand the present application, the following tests were conducted on the products prepared in the examples and comparative examples.
[0060] Test Example 1
[0061] This test example used the products prepared in the above examples and comparative examples to collect CO2 in direct air, and the specific implementation steps were as follows:
[0062] 1). 1 g of the product prepared in the examples and comparative examples was taken into the trapping device.
[0063] 2). The air compression device was opened, the flow rate of the flow meter was set to 500 mL / min, air was introduced into the trapping device, the gas entered from the bottom of the trapping device, and a perforated stainless steel screen was present at the bottom of the device to disperse the air and increase its contact area with the product, and the CO2 concentration in the air after adsorption was detected at the gas outlet, and the adsorption was stopped when the CO2 at the gas outlet was consistent with the air.
[0064] 3). After the adsorption was completed, the Ar gas cylinder was opened, the air in the reaction chamber was discharged, and the CO2 was detected at the gas outlet using an infrared CO2 analyzer.
[0065] 4). When the concentration at the gas outlet was zero, the temperature of the device was increased to 220°C, 50 mL / min of argon was introduced, and the CO2 was detected at the gas outlet using an infrared CO2 analyzer, and when the CO2 concentration at the outlet was 0, the desorption was completed and the next cycle was performed.
[0066] The adsorption and desorption amounts of the material were calculated according to specific formulas, which were shown as follows:
[0067] Desorption amount calculation formula
[0068]
[0069] In the formula, q s is the CO2 desorption amount, mmol / g; Q is the air flow rate, mL / min; C is the outlet gas concentration, vol%; m is the adsorbent mass, g; V m is the gas molar volume, 22.4 L / mol; T0 is the temperature under standard conditions, 273 K; T is the desorption temperature, K.
[0070] The results are shown in Table 2:
[0071] From Table 2, it can be seen that the desorption amount of Examples 1-3 all exist at 220℃, and the adsorbent of Comparative Example 1 has no desorption amount, wherein the desorption amount of Example 1 can reach 2.2 mmol / g at 220℃, which indicates that it has better desorption amount at low temperature, and the pure bismuth oxide of Comparative Example 1 starts to desorb at 260℃, and the desorption amount cannot reach the desorption amount of Example 1 at 300℃, which proves that the metal loading can significantly reduce the desorption temperature, and the calcium oxide of Comparative Example 2 cannot desorb at the test temperature due to its high desorption temperature, which cannot meet the desorption temperature. The magnesium oxide of Comparative Example 3 does not desorb below 300℃, and desorption occurs at 300℃, but the desorption amount is only 1 mmol / g, which proves that the desorption temperature of magnesium oxide is the lowest and cannot be lower than 300℃, but this is also significantly different from the lowest temperature of the examples of the present application, and the examples of the present application have a significant effect on reducing the desorption temperature.
[0072] In order to better understand the present application, the foam metal loaded bismuth oxide prepared in Example 1 is further tested.
[0073] The test method is the same as that of Test Example 1, and after the experimental steps are completed, the SEM of the product after adsorption is as shown in Figure 2 , and it can be known from Figure 1 that with the progress of the reaction, the blocky bismuth oxide gradually converts into a flaky product, and at the same time, the XRD shows that the phase of bismuth carbonate initially appears.
[0074] The TG and TPD of the desorption process of Comparative Example 1 and Test Example 1 are as shown in Figures 3-6 , and it can be found that the desorption temperature of the loaded adsorption product is much lower than that of pure bismuth oxide.
[0075] From the results, it can be seen that the carbon dioxide capture process of the present example 1 is to complete adsorption after air is introduced at room temperature, and after decomposition, the product gas CO2 capture amount is 2.2 mmol g -1 , and it is proved by TG and TPD that the desorption temperature is significantly reduced compared with the prior art, which can greatly reduce the energy consumption of the DAC process.
[0076] Various embodiments of the present application can take on a variety of scopes; it should be understood that a scope in the form of a range is described merely for the sake of convenience and brevity, and should not be construed as a rigid limitation of the scope of the present application; therefore, it should be considered that the range described has specifically disclosed all possible sub-ranges and single values within that range. For example, it should be considered that a range description from 1 to 6 has specifically disclosed sub-ranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6, etc., as well as single numbers within the range, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, regardless of the range. In addition, whenever a numerical range is indicated herein, it is meant to include any cited number (fractional or integral) within the indicated range.
