Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of carbon dioxide recovery technology, and in particular to an organic amine-based carbon dioxide capture agent, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With the booming development of global industry and economy, human demand for energy is constantly rising, which has led to a sharp increase in carbon dioxide emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels, exacerbating the trend of global warming.

[0003] Currently, carbon dioxide capture technologies include absorption, adsorption, membrane separation, and cryogenic distillation. Among these, amine-based capture technology, based on chemical absorption, has become the most mature and widely used technology for capturing carbon dioxide from coal-fired power plants and industrial process tail gas due to its fast absorption rate, high selectivity, and large processing capacity. This type of amine capture technology mainly utilizes the reversible reaction between aqueous solutions of organic amines (such as monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, and methyldiethanolamine) and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide-rich solution is then transported to a regeneration tower, where it is heated at 100-120°C to reverse the reaction, releasing high-purity carbon dioxide and simultaneously regenerating lean solution for recycling. However, amine solvents are highly susceptible to chemical and thermal degradation, exhibiting low stability and resulting in poor regeneration efficiency of the absorbent. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To improve the regeneration effect of absorbents, this application provides an organic amine-based carbon dioxide capture agent, its preparation method, and its application.

[0005] In a first aspect, this application provides a carbon dioxide scavenging agent based on organic amines, employing the following technical solution:

[0006] An organic amine-based carbon dioxide scavenger comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 60-80 parts organic amine, 10-20 parts octanoic acid, 3-7 parts carbon powder, 5-10 parts urea, 10-20 parts polyethylene glycol 400, 1.8-4 parts polyethylene glycol monooleate, 2-4.05 parts choline chloride, and 40-60 parts solvent.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, this application uses organic amines as the main absorbent to provide basic chemical absorption capacity; octanoic acid and organic amines form an ammonium salt buffer system, which can stabilize the liquid phase pH, inhibit amine oxidation, and provide a proton source during the desorption stage, thereby reducing regeneration energy consumption; carbon powder, as a porous solid carrier, can enrich amine molecules and carbon dioxide through physical adsorption, increase the local reactant concentration, and thus improve the overall carbon dioxide absorption capacity and rate; urea, on the one hand, works synergistically with octanoic acid to regulate the polarity and viscosity of the solution, improving the mass transfer and diffusion of carbon dioxide. On the other hand, the ammonia gas released by the decomposition of urea at the regeneration temperature can undergo proton exchange with the amine system, reducing the thermal degradation of amines at high temperatures; polyethylene glycol 400 and polyethylene glycol monooleate can synergistically reduce the surface tension of the solution, increase the solubility and diffusion coefficient of carbon dioxide in the liquid film, and form an elastic film at the gas-liquid interface to inhibit foaming entrainment and improve mass transfer stability; choline chloride, as a hydrogen bond donor-acceptor bifunctional ionic liquid, can weaken the NH bond strength of amine molecules, accelerate the nucleophilic addition of amines to carbon dioxide, and increase the reaction rate. The above components work together through a combination of physical synergy and chemical promotion to enhance the carbon dioxide absorption performance and regeneration efficiency of the capture agent.

[0008] Optionally, the specific surface area of ​​the toner is greater than 600 m². 2 / g.

[0009] Optionally, the carbon powder is nitrogen-doped carbon powder, and the preparation steps of the nitrogen-doped carbon powder include: mixing urea and water, adding carbon powder, mixing evenly, calcining under nitrogen atmosphere, and grinding to obtain nitrogen-doped carbon powder.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, this application uses nitrogen-doped carbon powder, which can enhance the anchoring of organic amine molecules on the carbon powder surface and improve the loading rate by introducing abundant surface alkaline sites. In addition, the introduction of nitrogen can improve the polarity and wettability of the carbon powder surface, making it more uniformly dispersed in the amine liquid system, reducing agglomeration, increasing the gas-liquid-solid three-phase contact interface, and thus improving the mass transfer and reaction efficiency of carbon dioxide.

[0011] Optionally, the organic amine is at least one of 2-(tert-butylamino)ethanol, N-methyldiethanolamine, and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol.

[0012] By employing the above technical solution and selecting organic amines with steric hindrance effects, such as 2-(tert-butylamino)ethanol, N-methyldiethanolamine, and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, and their combinations, the stability of carbamates can be effectively weakened, making them easier to decompose during the regeneration stage, thereby significantly reducing the energy consumption required for solution regeneration. Simultaneously, the steric hindrance effect reduces, to some extent, the stable byproducts generated from the reaction of amines and carbon dioxide, not only improving the recycling rate of effective amines but also enhancing the stability of the system during long-term operation.

[0013] Optionally, the weight ratio of polyethylene glycol 400 to polyethylene glycol monooleate is (5-9):1.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, this application uses a specific ratio of polyethylene glycol 400 and polyethylene glycol monooleate, which ensures that polyethylene glycol monooleate, as a nonionic surfactant, can sufficiently reduce interfacial tension and promote the formation of micelles or microemulsions, thereby significantly increasing the gas-liquid contact area. At the same time, sufficient polyethylene glycol 400, as a water-soluble polymer and co-surfactant, can not only effectively adjust the overall viscosity of the system and prevent excessive foaming or viscosity increase caused by excessive surfactant, but also synergistically stabilize the dispersion structure formed with monooleate, enhancing the elasticity and stability of the liquid film, thereby improving the carbon dioxide capture stability.

[0015] Optionally, the weight ratio of polyethylene glycol monooleate to choline chloride is 1:(1-1.8).

[0016] By employing the above technical solution, this application utilizes a specific ratio of polyethylene glycol monooleate and choline chloride to precisely control the physicochemical microenvironment of the absorbent system, achieving synergistic optimization of surface activity, viscosity control, and reaction kinetics promotion. Choline chloride can form a synergistic solubilizing and stabilizing effect with polyethylene glycol monooleate, and form a highly homogeneous, low-viscosity ionic liquid microenvironment with organic amines, octanoic acid, etc., reducing the reaction energy barrier and avoiding surfactant system failure due to excessively high ionic strength.

[0017] Optionally, the weight ratio of octanoic acid to urea is (1.4-2):1.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, this application utilizes a specific ratio of octanoic acid and urea to construct a highly efficient "proton transfer and activation" synergistic system, thereby improving the chemical absorption efficiency of the trap. Specifically, octanoic acid provides a moderately acidic environment and forms an efficient "proton shuttle" buffer pair with organic amines to accelerate reaction kinetics, while preventing excessive acidity from corroding equipment. Urea molecules can fully and uniformly participate in the proton transfer pathway provided by octanoic acid. Its amide groups, through specific interactions with octanoic acid and reaction intermediates, not only further promote the hydration and activation process of carbon dioxide but may also participate in the formation of more easily dissociated intermediates, thus synergistically enhancing the overall absorption capacity and rate at the molecular level.

[0019] Optionally, the solvent is at least one of water, ethanol, and N-methylpyrrolidone.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, this application uses water, ethanol, N-methylpyrrolidone, or a combination thereof as solvents, providing a highly adaptable and flexibly adjustable dissolution and reaction medium for the entire absorption system. Water effectively dissolves components such as organic amines and choline chloride, and directly participates in the reaction pathway for carbon dioxide to form bicarbonate; ethanol can adjust the solution polarity, enhance the miscibility of organic components, and to a certain extent lower the freezing point and viscosity of the solution, improving operational performance; N-methylpyrrolidone, as a strongly polar aprotic solvent, has extremely high chemical and thermal stability, which is beneficial for the dissolution of carbon dioxide.

[0021] Optionally, it also includes 6 parts by weight of potassium carbonate and 0.5 parts by weight of copper nitrate.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution and introducing potassium carbonate and copper nitrate into the absorbent system, a synergistic enhancement of the core absorption performance can be achieved from the perspectives of reaction pathway and system stability. Specifically, potassium carbonate and organic amines can form a highly efficient mixed amine-carbonate absorption system, which directly reacts with carbon dioxide to generate bicarbonate ions, thereby increasing the total carbon dioxide reaction loading capacity and absorption rate. Simultaneously, potassium ions help stabilize reaction intermediates, promote proton transfer, and optimize reaction kinetics. Copper ions in copper nitrate can act as a redox buffer, effectively inhibiting the oxidative degradation of organic amines in an oxygen-rich environment and extending the absorbent's lifespan. Furthermore, copper nitrate can also act as a Lewis acid catalyst, further reducing the energy barrier for carbamate formation and decomposition by weakening C=O bonds or stabilizing transition states, thus helping to reduce regeneration energy consumption.

[0023] Secondly, this application provides a method for preparing a carbon dioxide scavenging agent based on organic amines, using the following technical solution:

[0024] A method for preparing an organic amine-based carbon dioxide scavenger includes the following steps:

[0025] S1. Mix octanoic acid, polyethylene glycol 400 and polyethylene glycol monooleate, heat and stir until homogeneous to obtain a premixed solution;

[0026] S2. Mix organic amine, urea and choline chloride, add solvent, heat and stir until homogeneous to obtain amine phase;

[0027] S3. Add the carbon powder to the premixed liquid, stir evenly, then add the amine phase, stir evenly, and degas under vacuum to obtain the carbon dioxide scavenger.

[0028] Optionally, in step S1, the heating temperature is 50-70℃ and the stirring speed is 300-500 r / min.

[0029] Optionally, in step S2, the heating temperature is 40-60℃ and the stirring speed is 300-500 r / min.

[0030] Optionally, in step S3, the stirring speed is 8000-10000 r / min, and the vacuum degree for vacuum degassing is -0.08~-0.10 MPa.

[0031] Thirdly, this application provides a carbon dioxide capture and absorption method, comprising contacting waste gas containing carbon dioxide with an organic amine-based carbon dioxide capture agent to obtain a carbon dioxide enriched liquid; and heating the carbon dioxide enriched liquid to obtain the carbon dioxide gas.

[0032] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

This application uses organic amines as the main absorbent, providing the basic chemical absorption capacity; octanoic acid forms an ammonium salt buffer system with organic amines, which can stabilize the liquid phase pH and inhibit amine oxidation; carbon powder, as a porous solid carrier, can enrich amine molecules and carbon dioxide through physical adsorption, increasing the local reactant concentration, thereby improving the overall carbon dioxide absorption capacity and rate; urea can synergistically regulate the polarity and viscosity of the solution with octanoic acid, improving the mass transfer and diffusion of carbon dioxide and reducing the thermal degradation of amines at high temperatures; polyethylene glycol 400 and polyethylene glycol monooleate can synergistically reduce the surface tension of the solution, increasing the solubility and diffusion coefficient of carbon dioxide in the liquid film; choline chloride, as a hydrogen bond donor-acceptor bifunctional ionic liquid, can weaken the NH bond strength of amine molecules, accelerate the nucleophilic addition of amines to carbon dioxide, and increase the reaction rate. The above components, through a combination of physical synergy and chemical promotion, jointly improve the overall absorption performance, system stability, and regeneration efficiency of the carbon dioxide capture agent;

[0034] 2. This application uses nitrogen-doped carbon powder, which can enhance the anchoring of organic amine molecules on the carbon powder surface and improve the loading rate by introducing abundant surface basic sites. In addition, the introduction of nitrogen can improve the polarity and wettability of the carbon powder surface, making it more uniformly dispersed in the amine liquid system, reducing agglomeration, increasing the gas-liquid-solid three-phase contact interface, and thus improving the mass transfer and reaction efficiency of carbon dioxide;

[0035] 3. This application uses a specific ratio of polyethylene glycol 400 and polyethylene glycol monooleate, which ensures that polyethylene glycol monooleate, as a nonionic surfactant, can sufficiently reduce interfacial tension and promote the formation of micelles or microemulsions, thereby significantly increasing the gas-liquid contact area. At the same time, sufficient polyethylene glycol 400, as a water-soluble polymer and co-surfactant, can not only effectively adjust the overall viscosity of the system and prevent excessive foaming or viscosity increase caused by excessive surfactant, but also synergistically stabilize the dispersion structure formed with monooleate, enhancing the elasticity and stability of the liquid film, thereby improving the carbon dioxide capture stability.

[0036] 4.

Octanoic acid provides a moderately acidic environment and forms an efficient "proton shuttle" buffer pair with organic amines to accelerate reaction kinetics, while preventing excessive acidity from corroding equipment. Urea molecules can fully and uniformly participate in the proton transfer pathway provided by octanoic acid. Its amide groups, through specific interactions with octanoic acid and reaction intermediates, not only further promote the hydration and activation process of carbon dioxide but may also participate in the formation of more easily dissociated intermediates, thus synergistically enhancing the overall absorption capacity and rate at the molecular level.

[0059] The carbon dioxide capture agents obtained in Examples 1-3 were tested for carbon dioxide absorption rate, carbon dioxide desorption rate, and regeneration efficiency. The carbon dioxide absorption rate and desorption rate were tested as follows: 25 mL of the carbon dioxide capture agent was added to an absorption bottle and heated in a water bath at 40°C, while simulated waste gas was introduced at a flow rate of 50 mL / min. The simulated waste gas contained 83 vol% nitrogen, 12 vol% carbon dioxide, and 5 vol% water vapor.

[0060] The test results of Examples 1-3 obtained according to the above test methods are shown in Table 1:

[0061] Table 1 Performance testing of carbon dioxide scavengers in Examples 1-3

[0062]

[0063] As shown in Examples 1-3 and Table 1, the carbon dioxide scavenging agents of Examples 1-3 have a carbon dioxide absorption rate of over 80%, a carbon dioxide desorption rate of over 77%, and a regeneration efficiency of over 79%. This indicates that the carbon dioxide scavenging agent of this application can improve the absorption performance and regeneration effect of carbon dioxide.

[0064] Comparative Example 1

This indicates that polyethylene glycol 400 and polyethylene glycol monooleate ester can synergistically reduce the surface tension of the solution, increase the solubility and diffusion coefficient of carbon dioxide in the liquid film, and form an elastic film at the gas-liquid interface, thereby improving mass transfer stability. While polyethylene glycol 400 alone can increase the viscosity of the system, it is difficult to effectively reduce the gas-liquid interfacial tension, leading to a decrease in carbon dioxide mass transfer efficiency; while polyethylene glycol monooleate ester alone can improve the structural stability of the system, it is prone to causing excessive foaming or interfacial film instability, affecting regeneration performance.

[0085] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 5 is that the weight ratio of polyethylene glycol monooleate and choline chloride in this embodiment is 1:1.8. Specifically, the weight of polyethylene glycol monooleate is 2.25g and the weight of choline chloride is 4.05g.

[0086] The carbon dioxide capture agents obtained in Examples 5 and 7-8 were tested for carbon dioxide absorption rate, desorption rate, and regeneration efficiency. The test results are shown in Table 4.

[0087] Table 4 Performance testing of carbon dioxide scavengers in Examples 5 and 7-8

This indicates that the present application utilizes a specific ratio of octanoic acid and urea to construct a highly efficient "proton transfer and activation" synergistic system. While providing a suitable acidic environment and accelerating reaction kinetics, it effectively inhibits the thermal degradation of amines, thereby further improving the carbon dioxide absorption capacity, desorption efficiency, and cycle stability. A low proportion of octanoic acid will affect the proton supply efficiency, thus impacting reaction kinetics; a low proportion of urea will affect the absorption rate and capacity.
