    活性炭负载氨基酸类低共熔溶剂吸收CO2分子动力学模拟

    Molecular dynamics study of CO2 capture using amino acid DES loaded on activated carbon

    • 摘要: CO2的大量排放引发的全球气候变暖等严峻问题,对全球经济和生态环境造成严重危害。寻找一种既高效又节能、既环保又经济的碳捕获技术成为目前研究的热点。低共熔溶剂(DESs)作为一种新型绿色溶剂,成为吸收CO2的热点吸收剂之一。文中以氨基酸类低共熔溶剂作为溶剂,活性炭作为载体,借助Materials Studio软件构建了活性炭负载氨基酸类低共熔溶剂模型。利用分子动力学模拟考察活性炭负载不同氨基酸类低共熔溶剂吸收CO2,考察不同氨基酸种类、负载量、温度、水以及氧气对吸附过程的影响。研究活性炭负载氨基酸类低共熔溶剂对CO2的吸附性能和吸附行为,分析CO2在活性炭负载氨基酸类低共熔溶剂上的微观吸附机理,并制备样品进行吸收实验验证模拟结果。结果表明,在313 K、负载量为25% 时活性炭负载组氨酸低共熔溶剂吸收CO2的能力最强。负载量为25%时的平均吸附热为24.81 kJ·mol–1。在复杂烟气条件下,水蒸气与氧气均会导致活性炭负载组氨酸类低共熔溶剂对CO2的吸附能力减弱。吸收实验结果与模拟结果规律一致。

       

      Abstract: The massive emission of CO2 has triggered severe issues such as global warming, causing significant harm to the global economy and ecological environment. Developing a carbon capture technology that is efficient, energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective has become a key research focus. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), as a novel green solvent, have emerged as a promising absorbent for CO2 capture. In this study, amino acid-based deep eutectic solvents were used as the solvent, with activated carbon as the carrier, and a model of activated carbon-loaded amino acid-based deep eutectic solvent was constructed using Materials Studio software. Molecular dynamics simulations were employed to investigate the CO2 absorption performance of activated carbon loaded with different amino acid-based deep eutectic solvents, examining the effects of amino acid types, loading amounts, temperature, water, and oxygen on the adsorption process. The adsorption performance and behavior of CO2 on activated carbon-loaded amino acid-based deep eutectic solvents were studied, and the microscopic adsorption mechanism was analyzed and samples were prepared for absorption experiments to validate the simulation results.The simulation results indicated that at 313 K and a loading amount of 25%, activated carbon loaded with histidine-based deep eutectic solvent exhibited the strongest CO2 absorption capacity. When the loading was 25%, the mean adsorption heat was 24.81 kJ·mol−1. Under complex flue gas conditions, both water vapor and oxygen could lead to reduced CO2 adsorption capacity in histidine-based deep eutectic solvents (DES) supported on activated carbon. The experimental results of the absorption show a consistent pattern with the simulation results.
