摘要:
Effects of Al-pillaring and alkali metal (Li, Na, K and Cs) doping on CO2 adsorption property of montmorillonite are investigated. Physicochemical properties of the materials are studied by means of X-ray diffraction and N-2 adsorption-desorption, and their CO2 adsorption behaviors are studied using the thermogravimetic, CO2 temperature-programmed desorption, and in situ diffuse reflectance fourier transform infrared spectroscopic techniques. Compared with montmorillonite, Al-pillaring improves its specific surface area (up to 242 m(2)/g) and pore structure. The results show that CO2 adsorption capacity decreases in the sequence of 5 wt% Cs/Al-PILC > 5 wt% K/Al-PILC > 5 wt% Na/Al-PILC > 5 wt% Li/Al-PILC > Al-PILC > montmorillonite. Among all of the samples, the 5 wt% Cs/Al-PILC sample exhibits the highest adsorption capacity (2.325 mmol/g) at 50 degrees C. According to the adsorption kinetics analysis, CO2 adsorption on montmorillonite is mainly chemical adsorption, so alkalinity of the adsorbent is improved by doping a proper amount of alkali metal. Meanwhile, the adsorbed CO2 is stored in the form of bicarbonates and carbonates. Moreover, the montmorillonite adsorbents also have good regeneration properties. We believe that the results obtained in the present work provide more options for development of CO2 adsorption adsorbents with high performance.
