The highly reactive synthetic sorbent was prepared from carbide slag, aluminum nitrate hydrate and glycerol water solution by the combustion synthesis method. The results show that the synthetic sorbent exhibits a much higher CO2 capture capacity compared with carbide slag. The CO2 capture capacity and the carbonation conversion of the synthetic sorbent are 0. 38 g/g and 0. 70 after 50 cycles, which are 1.8 and 2. 1 times those of carbide slag. The average carbonation conversion and the CO2 capture efficiency of the synthetic sorbent are higher than those of carbide slag with the same sorbent flow ratios. The required sorbent flow ratios are lower for synthetic sorbent to achieve the same CO2 capture efficiency compared with carbide slag. With the same sorbent flow ratio and CO2 capture efficiency, the energy requirement in calciner for the synthetic sorbent is less than that for carbide slag.展开更多

However, the vaporization of methanol is the biggest disadvantage that hinders its application, so it is necessary to minimize the vaporization of methanol during both the absorption and regeneration processes. In this work, two kinds of hybrid solutions were studied and compared with aqueous MEA solution and MEA-methanol solution, including MEA/TEA/methanol solution and MEA/glycerol/methanol solution. The absorption property of MEA/glycerol/methanol solution is better than aqueous MEA solution within a certain period of time and the absorption property of MEA/TEA/methanol solution is too poor to be used in CO_2 capture. By increasing the concentration of TEA and decreasing the concentration of MEA, the absorption rate, CO_2 capture efficiency and absorption capacity all decreased. Upon adding glycerol, the cyclic capacity decreased and the generation temperature increased, and moreover, the density and viscosity also increased considerably. So after adding TEA and glycerol, the CO_2 capture performance of MEAmethanol solvent cannot be improved.展开更多
