摘要
The calcium chloride used for adsorption separation of ammonia is promising for its large adsorptive capacity and lower desorption temperature,but difficult to develop because of the liable expansion,lump and chip in the adsorption/desorption process.Composite adsorbents made by monolayer dis-persion of calcium chloride onto carriers with high surface areas exhibit better adsorptive capacity and stability.Several models were developed to confirm the maximum monolayer dispersion capacity of calcium chloride onto the carriers(the distribution threshold value),and the closely packed monolayer dispersion model was considered the most suitable for this study.The distribution threshold values given by this model were 0.60 g CaCl2/(g 10X-zeolite) and 0.38 g CaCl2/(g SiO2).When the divalent salt was dispersed onto the carriers,however,anions were separated into two types,causing that the en-tropy of the system tended to increase and the system was not stable.To minimize the entropy,a new model was put forward as the modified closely packed monolayer dispersion model.Based on this model,the distribution threshold values are 0.52 g CaCl2/(g 10X-zeolite) and 0.33 g CaCl2/(g SiO2),re-spectively.The distribution threshold values were also gained experimentally by XRD quantitative phase analysis:0.61 g CaCl2/(g 10X-zeolite) and 0.31 g CaCl2/(g SiO2).Comparison between experi-mental values of distribution threshold with theoretical ones based on two different model showed that the closely packed monolayer dispersion model fits the monolayer dispersion of calcium chloride onto micro-pore carrier - 10X-zeolite,and the modified closely packed monolayer dispersion model is more suitable for the bigger aperture carrier - macro-pore silica gel.
