Description

A carbon dioxide adsorbent, its synthesis method and application Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of carbon emission reduction technology, and specifically to a carbon dioxide adsorption material, its synthesis method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon dioxide capture has long been considered a key technology for reducing carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel power generation and industrial processes. Compared with traditional solvent absorption processes, solid adsorbent treatment methods have attracted widespread attention due to their low energy consumption, low pollution, and simple processes. Based on their adsorption temperatures, they are classified into three categories: low-temperature, medium-temperature, and high-temperature. Low-temperature adsorbents mainly include zeolite molecular sieves, carbonates, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and carbonaceous materials, which can adsorb carbon dioxide at relatively low temperatures (<200℃).

[0003] CN102078796A discloses an absorbent using activated carbon and titanium dioxide as a composite support, with potassium carbonate loaded on the surface of the composite support. This enhances the regeneration performance of the absorbent compared to a single-support type. Sengupta et al. (Surajit Sengupta, Vinay Amte. Energy & Fuel. 2015) synthesized a 50 wt% loaded K2CO3 / Al2O3 adsorbent and compared the effects of single-step and multi-step impregnation methods on the decarbonization performance of the adsorbent. However, the simple impregnation method still limits the loading and dispersion of the active component, affecting the decarbonization performance and cycle stability of the adsorbent. CN109046258A discloses a method for modifying molecular sieves such as ZSM-5 and MCM-41 with organic amines, which exhibits a high adsorption capacity for CO2. However, due to the strong polarity of the molecular sieves, they readily absorb moisture, competing with CO2 molecules for adsorption, and regeneration energy consumption also increases.

[0004] For supported alkali metal salt adsorbents, in actual use, the solid adsorbent mainly undergoes a gas-solid reaction when it comes into contact with CO2-containing flue gas. Generally, they suffer from high mass transfer resistance and low utilization of active centers. Moreover, if the active components of the supported adsorbent are not precisely controlled, it will lead to poor dispersion and large particles, which will also reduce the utilization of active centers.

[0051] The adsorbent of the present invention, its preparation method and application are further illustrated by the following examples, but it should not be considered that the present invention is limited to the following examples.

[0052] In this invention, the basicity of the sample was tested using a Mack AutoChem II chemisorption analyzer. 0.1 g of the sample (20-40 mesh) was accurately weighed and loaded onto the sample. The sample was heated to 550°C under a helium atmosphere, activated, and then cooled to 60°C. Carbon dioxide was fully adsorbed at this temperature, followed by helium purging. After 90 minutes, the sample was heated to 600°C, during which the catalyst desorbed. The desorption process was detected using a thermal conductivity detector (TCD).
