This invention relates to a process for CO2 capture and synergistic in-situ conversion of
calcium-iron
bifunctional materials with spatially distributed
reaction timing, belonging to the field of resources and environment. This invention constructs spatially precisely arranged
calcium-iron-shell and iron-
calcium-shell
bifunctional materials using a
sol-
gel method. It utilizes the sequential
exposure to a CH4 gas
atmosphere to directionally control the
reaction timing of dry reforming and partial oxidative reforming, achieving a three-in-one process of CO2 carbon capture, synergistic in-situ conversion, and material regeneration within a single fixed-
bed reactor, encompassing CO2
carbonation, CH4 dual reforming, and air / CO2 oxidation. The 3Ca@1Fe material achieves a maximum CO2 adsorption capacity of 10.29 mmol. CO2 / g CaO, The fastest adsorption-
desorption rate is attributed to the outer Fe2O3 layer providing more
oxygen vacancies to promote CO2
diffusion. The 4Fe@3Ca material achieves a maximum total
syngas yield of 21 mmol / g, with a stable H2 / CO ratio close to 2 and a low
carbon deposition of 1.13 mmol / g. This is attributed to the outer CaO shell inhibiting Fe2O3 aggregation and promoting
oxygen ion migration. By adjusting the calcium-iron
molar ratio, tunable
syngas with an H2 / CO ratio of 2.04–3.25 can be obtained to meet the needs of different downstream processes. This invention achieves precise control of
reaction timing through material
spatial structure design, significantly improving the synergistic efficiency of CO2 capture and in-situ conversion. The process is simple, recycles stably, and is low-cost, providing a novel
industrial technology route for integrated CO2 capture and
resource utilization.
