Semi-coke (SC) and ZnO is selected as the support and active component of sorbent, respectively. The sorbent preparation process includes high-pressure impregnation, filtration, ovendry and calcination. The aim of this research is to primarily study the effects of the impregnation pressure on physical properties and desulfurization ability of the sorbent. The desulfurization experiment was carried out in a fixed-bed reactor at 500 ~C and a simulated coal gas used in this work was composed of CO (33 vol%), H2 (39 vol%), H2S (300 ppm in volume), and N2 (balance). Experimental results show that the pore structure of the SC support can be improved effectively and ZnO active component can be uniformly dispersed on the support, with the small particle size of 10-500 nm. Sorbents prepared using high-pressure impregnation have better desulfurization capacity and their active components have higher utilization rate. P20-ZnSC sorbent, obtained by high-pressure impregnation at 20 atm, has the best desulfurization ability with a sulfur capacity of 7.54 g S/100g sorbent and a breakthrough time of 44 h. Its desulfurization precision and efficiency of removing H2S from the middle temperature gases can reach 〈 1 ppm and 〉99.7%, respectively, before sorbent breakthrough.展开更多

Zn/Ti ratio of the two sorbent was 1:1 and 2:3 resptively and a certain proportion of Cu and Mn metal oxide were added into L-992, which provided better performance than L-991 in aspects of suitable work temperature, sulfur capacity and agglomeration on the surface of sorbent particles. The evaluation tests were done on both sorbents include multi cycles tests. ARD and SEM analysis were done on fresh and post tests sorbent. During continuous sulfidation/regeneration, the H2S concentra- tion can be reduced from about 10 g/m3 to less than 20 mg/m3, the H2S removal effi- ciency >99 %.展开更多

This work evaluated pumpkin and potato peel biowastes for the adsorption of cadmium ions. The biowastes were treated with acid or base. Batch experiments were carried out by introducing a known concentration of metal ion solution into the biowaste sorbent at various pH levels. The pH and metal ion concentration was monitored with pH and cadmium ion-selective electrode continuously for two hours, and the final concentration for the metal ion after 24 hours was measured with the cadmium electrode and then confirmed with ICP-OES. L-type isotherms were obtained that fit to Freundlich model. Adsorption isotherms showed chemical adsorption and the kinetics following the second order model. Equilibrium adsorption capacity is higher than 29 mg/g at pH 5.6 when the initial concentration is 220 ppm. Dynamic cadmium adsorption capacity is 17 mg/g from aqueous solution when the feed solution is 220 ppm with pumpkin peel biowaste sorbent. The biowaste materials can be regenerated with acid washing.展开更多

In this article, we prepared anionic sorbent using wheat straw. Its structural characteristics and adsorption properties for nitrate removal from aqueous solution were investigated. The results indicate that the yield of the prepared anionic sorbent, the total exchange capacity, and the maximum adsorption capacity were 350%, 2.57 mEq/g, and 2.08 mmol/g, respectively. The Freundlich isotherm mode is more suitable than the Langmuir mode and the adsorption process accords with the first order reaction kinetic rate equation. When multiple anions (SO4^2-, H2PO4^-, NO3^-, and NO2^-) were present, the isotherm mode of prepared anionic sorbent for nitrate was consistent with Freundlich mode; however, the capacity of nitrate adsorption was reduced by 50%. In alkaline solutions, about 90% of adsorbed nitrate ions could be desorbed from prepared anionic sorbent. The results of this study confirmed that the wheat straw anionic sorbent can be used as an excellent nitrate sorbent that removes nitrate from aqueous solutions.展开更多

In this paper, zinc ferrites prepared by co-precipitation were identified as a novel coal gas desulfurization sorbent at high temperature. Preparation of zinc ferrite and effects of binders on pore volume, strength and desulfurization efficiency of zinc ferrite desulfurizer were studied. Moreover, the behavior of zinc ferrite sorbent during desulfurization and regeneration under the temperature range of 350-400 ℃ are investigated. Effects of binders on the pore volume, mechanical strength and desulfurization efficiency of zinc ferrite sorbents indicated that the addition of kaolinite to zinc ferrite desulfurizer seems to be superior to other binders under the experimental conditions.展开更多

Studies by the International Energy Agency(IEA) indicate CCS technology has the potential to contribute 14% of global emission reductions, followed by 40% of higher energy efficiency and 35% of renewable energy, which is considered as the most promising technology to significantly reduce carbon emissions for current coal-fired power plants.Moreover, the announcement of a Chinese national carbon trading market in late 2017 signals an opportunity for the commercial deployment of CO_2 capture technologies.Currently, the only commercially demonstrated technology for post-combustion CO_2 capture technology from power plants is solvent-based absorption. While commercially viable, the costs of deploying this technology are high. This has motivated efforts to develop more affordable alternatives, including advanced solvents, membranes,and sorbent capture systems. Of these approaches, advanced solvents have received the most attention in terms of research and demonstration. In contrast, sorbent capture technology has less attention, despite its potential for much lower energy consumption due to the absence of water in the sorbent. This paper reviews recent progress in the development of sorbent materials modified by amine functionalities with an emphasis on material characterization methods and the effects of operating conditions on performance. The main problems and challenges that need to be overcome to improve the competitiveness of sorbent-based capture technologies are discussed.展开更多

The other two traditional sorbents(Ni/Zn O-M and Ni/Zn O-H) were prepared in exactly the same way except the use of different silica-alumina binder matrices. The XRD, Rietveld quantitative phase analysis, BET, and laser particle size analysis were employed to characterize their physico-chemical properties. The deactivation mechanism and desulfurization kinetics of sorbent was investigated on a water vapor aging treatment device. It was shown that both the water vapor pressure and reaction temperature significantly could influence the formation rate of inactive Zn2 Si O4, which could decrease the sulfur storage capacity of sorbents. The Zn2 Si O4 content profiles could be fitted into the zero order equation, from which the apparent rate constant k and the activation energy E a were calculated. The matrix P greatly raised the E a of Zn2 Si O4 formation due to the less bridged hydroxyl silanol groups on its surface, which accounted for the high stability of Ni/Zn O-P. The desulfurization performance of the fresh and aged sorbents showed that the overall average sulfur conversion of Ni/Zn O-P(aged) was 92%, which was close to that of fresh sorbents(95%), and was higher than that of Ni/Zn O-M(aged)(86%) and Ni/Zn O-H(aged)(90%). Based on these findings, the application of Ni/Zn O-P can greatly improve the long-term running stability of the industrial unit.展开更多
