Abstract:
Four sorbents were prepared with CaO/MgO or CaO/Ca
9Al
6O
18 that was produced from precursors of calcium D-gluconate monohydrate, magnesium D-gluconate hydrate and aluminum L-lactate hydrate with a simple wet mixing method. The effects of sorbent type, mass proportioning, SO
2 concentration and calcination temperature on the adsorption capability of sorbent were studied. The results show that CaO/MgO( weight ratio 75%/25%)keeps the best CO
2 capture capability, while CaO/CaO/Ca
9Al
6O
18(weight ratio 75%/25%)keeps the best cyclic stability. The CO
2 capture process is drastically affected by SO
2. The CO
2 capture capacity drops quickly when the SO
2 concentration increases. However, the cumulative SO
2 capture capacity increases at the same time. The total calcium utilization rises tenderly after many cycles, which becomes more obvious with increasing the SO
2 concentration. The effect of calcination temperature on the adsorption characteristic of CaO/MgO and CaO/CaO/Ca
9Al
6O
18 differs little.
