A novel sorbent consisting of NaOH/CaO was developed for CO 2 capture at 315 °C suitable for hightemperature CO 2 -capture applications, such as coal gasification systems. The sorbent is regenerable at 700 °C, and steam does not affect the sorbent performance. A multicycle test conducted in the atmospheric reactor at 315 °C indicated that the sorbent improved the performance with an increased number of cycles. The sorbent can also capture CO 2 at a wide range of temperatures from ambient to 500 °C. However, the mechanism of CO 2 capture is different at ambient temperature. The sorbent is unique because it has a high CO 2 -capture capacity of more than 3 mol/kg at 315 °C and is regenerable at 700 °C.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
