CO2 Separation and Capture Properties of Porous Carbonaceous Materials from Leather Residues
نویسندگان
چکیده
Carbonaceous porous materials derived from leather skin residues have been found to have excellent CO₂ adsorption properties, with interestingly high gas selectivities for CO₂ (α > 200 at a gas composition of 15% CO₂/85% N₂, 273K, 1 bar) and capacities (>2 mmol·g-1 at 273 K). Both CO₂ isotherms and the high heat of adsorption pointed to the presence of strong binding sites for CO₂ which may be correlated with both: N content in the leather residues and ultrasmall pore sizes.

Functionalized Polymeric Membranes for CO2 Capture
Reducing CO2 emission and lowering the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has quickly become one of the most urgent environmental issues. While a variety of technologies and methods have been developed, the separation of CO2 from gas streams is still a critical issue. Apart from establishing new techniques, the exploration of membrane materials with high separation performance ...
متن کاملUnprecedented photocatalytic activity of carbonized leather skin residues containing chromium oxide phases
Carbonaceous N-containing materials derived from leather skin residues have been found to have unprecedented photocatalytic properties as compared to P25 Evonik, with an interesting degradation potential for contaminants in water (e.g. phenol). The carbonaceous materials were prepared by carbonization of the leather skin residues at different temperatures (180-600oC). Different crystalline spec...
متن کاملSynergetic effect of carbon nanopore size and surface oxidation on CO2 capture from CO2/CH4 mixtures.
We have studied the synergetic effect of confinement (carbon nanopore size) and surface chemistry (the number of carbonyl groups) on CO2 capture from its mixtures with CH4 at typical operating conditions for industrial adsorptive separation (298 K and compressed CO2-CH4 mixtures). Although both confinement and surface oxidation have an impact on the efficiency of CO2/CH4 adsorptive separation a...
متن کاملSolubility of carbon dioxide in encapsulated ionic liquids
Ionic liquids (ILs) have been object of extensive research during the last years due to their potential for industrial application with special interest on carbon dioxide (CO2) capture. Nonetheless, ILs transport properties have stand out as the major drawback for their use on absorption applications. This work proposes ionic liquids encapsulated (ENILs) into carbonaceous submicrocapsules, as a...
متن کاملA search for selectivity to enable CO2 capture with porous adsorbents
Fundamental aspects and actual developments of selective CO2 capture from relevant sources (flue gas or air) by reversible physisorption are critically reviewed. Thermodynamic as well as kinetic principles of CO2 adsorption in the presence of other gases are linked to current approaches of materials development. Whilst hundreds or even thousands of porous materials have been evaluated for CO2 c...
