Enhanced N-doped Porous Carbon Derived from KOH-Activated Waste Wool: A Promising Material for Selective Adsorption of CO2/CH4 and CH4/N2
2019
Overview
Separation of impurities (CO2 and N2) from CH4 is an important issue for natural gas alternatives (such as coalbed gas, biogas, and landfill gas) upgrading. It is notably challenging to synthesize high N-doped porous carbon with an appropriate porous structure. In this work, high N content (14.48 wt %) porous carbon with micropore size of 0.52 and 1.2 nm and specific surface area of 862 m2 g−1 has been synthesized from potassium hydroxide (KOH) activated waste wool upon the urea modification. Pure component adsorption isotherms of CO2, CH4, and N2 are systematically measured on this enhanced N-doped porous carbon at 0 and 25 °C, up to 1 bar, to evaluate the gases adsorption capability, and correlated with the Langmuir model. These data are used to estimate the separation selectivities for binary mixtures of CO2/CH4 and CH4/N2 at different mixing ratios according to the ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) model. At an ambient condition of 25 °C and 1 bar, the predicted selectivities for equimolar CO2/CH4 and CH4/N2 are 3.19 and 7.62, respectively, and the adsorption capacities for CO2, CH4, and N2 are 2.91, 1.01, and 0.13 mmol g−1, respectively. This report introduces a simple pathway to obtain enhanced N-doped porous carbon with large adsorption capacities for gas separation of CO2/CH4 and CH4/N2.
