Synergistic Effect of Nitrogen Doping and Ultra-Microporosity on the Performance of Biomass and Microalgae-Derived Activated Carbons for CO2 Capture

Abstract: We report a unique naturally derived activated carbon with optimally incorporated nitrogen functional groups and ultra-microporous structure to enable high CO 2 adsorption capacity. The coprocessing of biomass (Citrus aurantium waste leaves) and microalgae (Spirulina) as the N-doping agent was investigated by probing the parameter space (biomass/microalgae weight ratio, reaction temperature, and reaction time) of hydrothermal carbonization and activation process (via the ZnCl 2 /CO 2 activation) to generate hy… Show more

“…60,61 The initial consequence of nitrogen doping is that it promotes a larger density of N-doped basic active sites for enhanced van der Waals interactions between nitrogen functional groups and CO 2 molecules, which increases adsorption capacity. 62 CO 2 adsorption could be enhanced by the existence of a microporous structure and strong interactions between CO 2 molecules and the framework (particularly Ncontaining groups) via H-bonding or dipole-quadrupole interactions in N-enriched porous carbons. 63 The strong hydrogenbonding interactions between CO 2 molecules and hydrogen atoms (from CH and NH groups) on the carbon surface are greatly enhanced by the intercalation of N atoms into the carbon framework, which acts for the excellent CO 2 capture behavior of N-doped porous carbons.…”
