A comparative study of CO 2 capture by amine grafted vs amine impregnated zeolite 4A
Zeolite 4A was functionalized via grafting and impregnation techniques using 0.3 wt% of isopropylamine (IPA) and (3-aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane (APTMS) respectively. Physicochemical properties of zeolite 4A containing binder were changed after amine loading, as both specific surface area and pore volume was decreased by 1.52 %, 18.18 % and 28.06 %, 90.90 % for Z4A-IPA (IPA impregnated zeolite 4A) and Z4A-APTMS (APTMS grafted zeolite 4A) respectively. The adsorbed CO2 amount of Z4A, Z4A-IPA, and Z4A-APTMS were 1.58 mmol g-1 (6.95 wt%), 2.31 mmol g-1 (10.16 wt%) and 1.05 mmol g-1 (4.62 wt%) respectively at1 bar and 25 °C. Noticeably, among all the studied adsorbents, Z4A-IPA displayed the highest adsorption capacity of 1.39 mmol g-1 (6.11 wt%) at 0.15 bar, which is akin to the CO2 partial pressure of post-combustion flue gas. The multilayer tethering of the bulkier APTMS on the zeolite external surface resulted in the partial blockage of the pores and hence the facile access of CO2 inside the pores of zeolite was hindered. However, Z4A-APTMS was found to be more thermal stable than Z4A-IPA. Furthermore, we observed that physisorption was playing a vital role in CO2 adsorption for pristine zeolite 4A (Z4A), whereas, after amine incorporation, the presence of amine induced the heterogeneous interaction between CO2 and sorbents.
Monoethanol amine modified zeolite 13X for CO adsorption at different temperatures
Energy & Fuels, 2007
Zeolite 13X has been modified with monoethanol amine (MEA). MEA loadings of 0.5-25 wt % have been achieved using the impregnation method in different solvents. The mode of incorporation based on methanol with stirring at room temperature appears to be the most feasible. The adsorbent has been characterized for crystallinity, surface area, pore volume, and pore size. The thermal stability of the adsorbent is studied using a thermal analyzer. The CO 2 adsorption capacity of adsorbents is evaluated using the breakthrough adsorption method with a packed column on a 10 g scale. The adsorption capacities of adsorbents are estimated in the temperature range 30-120°C. The adsorbents show improvement in CO 2 adsorption capacity over the unmodified zeolite by a factor of ca. 1.6 at 30°C, whereas at 120°C the efficiency improved by a factor of 3.5. For adsorption at these temperatures, different MEA loading levels were found to be suitable as per the governing adsorption phenomena, that is, physical or chemical. The adsorbent is also studied for CO 2 selectivity over N 2 at 75°C. The MEA-modified adsorbent shows better CO 2 selectivity, which was improved further in the presence of moisture.
Technoeconomic Investigation of Amine-Grafted Zeolites and Their Kinetics for CO2 Capture
ACS Omega
Solid adsorbents with precise surface structural chemistry and porosity are of immense interest to decode the structure−property relationships and maintain an energy-intensive path while achieving high activity and durability. In this work, we reported a series of amine-modified zeolites and their CO 2 capture efficiencies. The amine impregnated molecular zeolite compounds were characterized and systematically investigated for CO 2 adsorption capacity through thermogravimetric analysis for the occurrence of atmospheric pure CO 2 gas at 75°C with diethylenetriamine (DETA), ethylenediamine (EDA), monoethanolamine (MEA), and triethanolamine (TEA)-loaded zeolite 13X, 4A, and 5A adsorbents. The kinetics of the adsorption study indicated that the adsorption capacity for CO 2 adsorption was improved with amine loading up to a certain concentration over 13X-DETA-40, showing an adsorption capacity of 1.054 mmol of CO 2 per gram of zeolite in a very short amount of time. The result was especially promising in terms of the initial adsorption capacity of zeolite, which adsorbed approximately 0.8 mmol/g zeolite within the first two minutes of experimentation. A detailed flow chart that includes a brief look into the process adopted for adsorption was included. Lagergren pseudo-first-and pseudo-second-order models of 40 wt % DETA zeolite 13X gave CO 2 adsorption capacities of 1.055 and 1.058 mmol/g and also activation energies of 86 and 76 kJ/mol, respectively. The CO 2 adsorption capacity of 13X-DETA-40 in a lab-scale reactor was found to be 1.69 mmol/g. A technoeconomic study was conducted for the solid amine zeolites to understand the investment per ton of CO 2 adsorbed. This study was used as a basis to improve cost estimates from a microscale to a lab-scale reactor. The cost of investment for 13X-DETA-40 was
Improving CO2 adsorption with new amine-functionalized Y-type zeolite
2017
In this work, a new synthesized Y-type zeolite with an Si/Al molar ratio of 2.5 (NaY) was modified with amines, in order to probe the influence of the modification of the adsorbent's surface on CO2 adsorption. The three selected amines were diethanolamine, tetraethylenepentamine, and 2-methylaminoethanol. The surface nature of NaY was changed after amine modification, which causes a significant increase in the CO2 adsorption capacity. The CO2 adsorption capacity of the amine-modified NaY increased with temperature. The mechanism of CO2 adsorption on NaY is usually a physical interaction, but it seems that after amine modification, chemical mechanism is the dominant mechanism for the chemical interaction between CO2 and amine groups. The adsorbents were characterized by surface area and porosity analysis, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. The CO2 adsorption capacity was measured by the volumetric method at 298 and 348 K. The CO2 adsorption capacity of TEPA-NaY, DEA-NaY, and 2-MAE-NaY at 298 K was 60.63. The CO2 adsorption capacity of TEPA-NaY, DEA-NaY, and 2-MAE-NaY at 348 K were 92.9, 78, and 85.42, respectively. These results showed that amine-functionalized NaY zeolites have excellent adsorption potential for CO2 adsorption at high temperatures.
CO2 adsorption in amine-grafted zeolite 13X
Applied Surface Science, 2014
The adsorption of CO 2 on Zeolite 13X functionalized with amino groups was studied. Adsorbent functionalization was carried out by grafting with different loads of monoethanolamine (MEA). The adsorbents were characterized by N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherms at 77 K, x-ray diffraction, TGA, in situ FTIR, XPS and adsorption microcalorimetry. CO 2 isotherms were studied in a gravimetric device up to 10 bar at 298 and 348 K. It was found that increasing loads of amine to the adsorbent tend to reduce micropore volume of the resulting adsorbents by pore blocking with MEA. There is experimental evidence that part of the loaded MEA is effectively covalently bonded to the zeolitic structure, whereas there is also physisorbed excess MEA which will eventually be desorbed by raising the temperature beyond MEA boiling point. Heats of adsorption at nearly zero coverage indicate that some of the adsorbed CO 2 reacts with available amino groups, which agrees with the finding that the adsorption capacity increases with increasing temperature for the modified zeolite with the highest MEA load.
Amine Modification of Binder-Containing Zeolite 4A Bodies for Post- 2 Combustion CO 2 Capture
Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., 2019
In the current study, a new type of composite 9 adsorbent was synthesized by amine modification of binder-containing 10 zeolite 4A bodies and its potential application in the post-combustion 11 CO 2 capture was evaluated. A wide range of aliphatic straight chain 12 amines such as propylamine (PA), butylamine (BA), pentylamine 13 (PEA), and their respective branched chain amines, iso-propylamine 14 (IPA), iso-butylamine (IBA), and iso-pentylamine (IPEA), were used 15 in a smaller fraction to modify binder-containing zeolite 4A bodies. 16 The synthesized materials were characterized by various spectro-17 analytical techniques to elucidate the effect of amine modification on 18 physicochemical properties of binder-containing zeolite 4A bodies and 19 its reactivity for CO 2 capture. Among all of the studied hybrid 20 adsorbents, the iso-butyl amine-modified binder-containing zeolite 4A 21 bodies (IBA-Z4A) exhibited excellent CO 2 adsorption performance with a maximum adsorption capacity of 2.56 mmol g −1 at 22 25 °C and 1 bar of pressure. Notably, IBA-Z4A also demonstrated excellent purity (98%) and remarkably high CO 2 /N 2 23 selectivity (335) as compared to the pristine binder-containing zeolite 4A bodies (24). Such enhanced CO 2 adsorption capacity 24 and high CO 2 /N 2 selectivity values for IBA-Z4A can be attributed to the symbiotic interactions between CO 2 and amines 25 governed by the basicity, electron density at the N atom of amines, and the steric effect of adsorbing molecules (CO 2 and N 2) at 26 the adsorbent surface. Notably, IBA-Z4A also displayed a marginal isosteric heat of adsorption for CO 2 (51 kJ mol −1) along 27 with the encouraging thermochemical cyclic stability over five consecutive CO 2 adsorption−desorption cycles at 25 °C and 1 28 bar, believed to be the best suited for post-combustion CO 2 capture.
Scientific Reports
This study focuses on optimizing the CO2 adsorption capacity of 4A-zeolite synthesized from kaolin by employing structural modifications through impregnation with tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) and diethanolamine (DEA). Various analytical techniques were utilized to evaluate the effectiveness of these modifications. Design expert software and response surface methodology (RSM) was employed for data analysis and operational variable optimization, leading to improved CO2 adsorption performance of the modified zeolites. The adsorption capacity of the modified zeolites was assessed under different temperatures, pressures, and amine concentrations using a test device. The optimal adsorption capacity of 4A-DEA adsorbent is found to be 579.468 mg/g, with the optimal operational variables including a temperature of 25.270 °C, pressure of 8.870 bar, and amine concentration of 11.112 wt%. The analysis shows that the adsorption process involves both physisorption and chemisorption, and the best...
• A zeolite-supported amine adsorbent was synthesized for capturing CO 2. • Multiple amines were fixed to HZSM-5 zeolites via wet impregnation method. • The CO 2 adsorption quantity was up to 4.44 mmol/g. • Activation energy of desorption were as low as 54.27 kJ/mol. • Low desorption temperature of 83°C indicates low energy demand for CO 2 capture. A B S T R A C T Solid adsorbents were prepared by fixing amines to HZSM-5 zeolites via wet impregnation method, and the CO 2 adsorption properties were investigated in a fixed-bed adsorption system followed by the structural, thermo-dynamic and kinetic studies. The HZSM-5 with 25 in Si/Al ratio and~2.3 μm in average particle size was found to be a favourable CO 2 adsorbent support; whereby CO 2 adsorbents supporting monoethanolamine (MEA) and hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine (AEEA) exhibited good CO 2 adsorption capacities, with maximum values of 4.27 and 4.44 mmol/g being achieved, respectively. Desorption kinetics and thermodynamic studies showed that the CO 2 desorption process of AEEA loaded HZSM-5 exhibited a low activation energy of 54.27 kJ/mol. This low activation energy attributes to two possible reasons: HZSM-5 zeolite provides a large number of free H + ions, which directly participate in carbamate breakdown; HZSM-5 can also provide metal atoms (Al) that attach to the N atom of carbamate, thereby stretching the C-N bond and promoting decomposition. Furthermore, the AEEA loaded HASM-5 adsorbent has high adsorption-desorption stability in the regeneration cycle tests, revealing the energy efficiency of the CO 2 desorption process and low CO 2 capture cost.
