Moreover, the development of granulation/pelletization techniques along with the mass preparation of the CaO-based sorbent is imperative for realistic large-scale applications. This work proposes two practicable moulding-crushing techniques for the scale-up granulation of CaO-based sorbents, in which the kilogram-scale produced Al-promoted CaO-based sorbent powders were first moulded and subsequently crushed into the granules of target sizes. Three types of organic acids–acetic acid, citric acid and malonic acid were employed as peptizing agents to optimize the granulation process. As a result, the anti-attrition properties and compressive strength of the synthetic sorbents were elevated owing to the introduction of an appropriate amount of acetic or malonic acid, for it expedited the disintegration of the pseudo-boehmite (served as binder agent) particles into sol particles, which allowed for tighter bonding of sorbent particles. In addition, corncob powder acted as a pore-forming agent, enhancing the porous structure of the sorbent particles due to the gases released from the thermal decomposition of organic groups during calcination. Nevertheless, the results revealed that the porous and loose structure adversely affected the mechanical strength of the granules.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9387,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Capture Science & Technology","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100321"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142418421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, a novel tertiary tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA)-AMP-NPA (T-A-N) NAA was devised. The optimized T-A-N maintained complete homogeneity throughout the entire CO<sub>2</sub> absorption process and achieved an impressive CO<sub>2</sub> loading of 1.15 mol·mol<sup>−1</sup> while maintaining a low viscosity of merely 22.47 mPa·s. Remarkably, its absorption capacity showed little decrement after four consecutive absorption-desorption cycles, underscoring its exceptional recyclability. Within the T-A-N system, AMP underwent a reaction with CO<sub>2</sub>, yielding AMP-carbamate and protonated AMP, while TEPA engaged in CO<sub>2</sub> absorption to form zwitterionic carbamates. During the desorption process, NPA served as a regeneration activator, facilitating the conversion of stable TEPA-carbamates into less stable alkyl carbonate intermediates, thereby enhancing the T-A-N's regeneration performance. Moreover, the T-A-N system addressed the issue of TEPA-carbamate self-aggregation into insoluble gelatinous substances by leveraging the synergistic enhancement effects between AMP derivatives and NPA. Specifically, these components effectively bound TEPA-carbamate species via robust electrostatic affinity and intermolecular hydrogen-bond interactions, inhibiting their self-aggregation and preventing the formation of insoluble products. Furthermore, T-A-N exhibited a significant reduction in both sensible and latent heat requirements, by 67 % and 82 % respectively, compared to 30 wt% MEA, highlighting its advantageous energy-saving potential for CO<sub>2</sub> capture.
