Enhancement of Carbon Dioxide Capture by Amine‐Functionalized Multi‐Walled Carbon Nanotube
In this study, crude multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) was functionalized by a two‐step process; first using strong mixed acids (H2SO4/HNO3) and then treatment with 1,3‐phenylenediamine (mPDA). The equilibrium adsorption of CO2 on pristine MWCNT and amine functionalized MWCNT (MWCNT‐NH2) were investigated. Experiments were preformed via application of volumetric method in a dual sorption vessel at temperature range of 298–318 K and pressures up to 40 bars. The results obtained indicated that the equilibrium uptake of CO2 increased after functionalizing of MWCNT. The increase in CO2 capture by MWCNT‐NH2 was attributed to the existence of great affinity between CO2 molecules and amine sites on this adsorbent at low pressures. The experimental data were analyzed by means of Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherm models. The data obtained revealed a fast kinetics for the adsorption of CO2 in which most of adsorption occurred at initial period of adsorption experiments. This renders MWCNT as a suitable adsorbent for practical applications. Values of isosteric heat of adsorption were evaluated based on Clausius–Clapeyron equation. The results demonstrated that both chemisorption and physisorption played important role in CO2 adsorption on MWCNT‐NH2, whereas the physisorption process was dominant for CO2 adsorption on MWCNT.
