Abstract

Adsorption of carbon dioxide (CO₂) was investigated on triamine-grafted, pore-expanded MCM-41 mesoporous silica (TRI-PE-MCM-41). Measurements of adsorption capacity using mass spectrometry showed an enhanced CO₂ adsorption capacity in humid streams compared to dry CO ₂. This was corroborated with breakthrough experiments, which also showed that TRI-PE-MCM-41 offered a practically infinite selectivity towards CO₂ over nitrogen. Cyclic measurements of pure CO₂ and CO₂:N₂ = 10:90 mixture using different regeneration modes showed that amine-grafted PE-MCM-41 is particularly suitable for CO₂ removal using temperature swing adsorption (TSA) at adsorption temperatures higher than ambient, while temperature-vacuum swing adsorption (TVSA) may be attractive at ambient temperature.
