摘要
In this work,the performance of CO2 absorption into aqueous 2-amino-2-methyl-propanol(AMP)solution was investigated by measuring the amount of CO2 in the liquid phase during CO2 absorption process to identify initial CO2 absorption rate.Then,the porous media material named as MCM41 was introduced into the amine solution to test its influence on CO2 absorption.It was found that MCM41 increased initial CO2 absorption rate and enhanced CO2 absorption process.The physico-chemical properties of MCM41 were characterized in terms of specific surface area,average pore diameter,total pore volume and chemical properties,the amount of acidic sites and the Brfnsted/Lewis(B/L)acid sites ratio.Results showed that MCM41 was a type of Lewis acid catalyst with large specific surface area and pore volume.In addition,the pKa of AMP solution with and without MCM41 was obtained using acid titration technology to help understand the effect brought by MCM41.A mechanism illustrating how MCM41 increases the CO2 absorption rate of the AMP solution was proposed and demonstrated that MCM41 is a potential material for enhancing CO2 absorption.
