Fuel Source

Biogas is a renewable fuel source of methane (CH4), and its utilization as a natural gas substitute or transport fuel has received much interest. However, apart from CH4, biogas also contains carbon dioxide (CO2) which is noncombustible, thus reducing the biogas heating value. Therefore, upgrading biogas by removing CO2 is needed for most biogas applications. In this study, an amine-functionalized adsorbent for CO2 capture from biogas was developed. Mesoporous MgO was synthesized and functionalized with different tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) loadings by wet impregnation technique. The prepared adsorbents (MgO-TEPA) were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and N2 adsorption-desorption. The CO2 adsorption performance of the prepared MgO-TEPA was tested using simulated biogas as feed gas stream. The results show that the CO2 adsorption capacities of the adsorbents increase with increasing TEPA loading. The optimum TEPA loading is 40 wt.%, which gives the highest CO2 adsorption capacity of 4.98 mmol/g. A further increase in TEPA loading to 50 wt.% significantly reduces the CO2 adsorption capacity. Furthermore, the stability and regenerability of the adsorbent with 40% TEPA loading (MgO-TEPA-40) were studied by performing ten adsorption-desorption cycles under simulated biogas and real biogas conditions. After ten adsorption-desorption cycles, MgO-TEPA-40 shows slight decreases of only 5.42 and 5.75% of CO2 adsorption capacity for the simulated biogas and biogas, respectively. The results demonstrate that MgO-TEPA-40 possesses good stability and regenerability which are important for the potential application of this amine-based adsorbent.

Mesoporous silica pore-expanded KIT-6 was synthesized using tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as the silica source, tri-block copolymer (P123) as a structure-directing agent and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (TMB) as swelling agents by a hydrothermal method. Then, pore-expanded KIT-6 (PE-KIT-6) was modified with different amounts of amines including triethylenetetramine (TETA) and tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) by a post-synthetic impregnation method. The samples were characterized by small-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), N2 adsorption/desorption, elemental analysis and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). Experimental results revealed that the modifiers were introduced into the samples and the CO2 adsorption capacity increased first and then decreased with the increase of TETA/TEPA loadings. Under the same loadings of TETA/TEPA, the samples modified by TEPA exhibited better CO2 adsorption capacities than the samples modified by TETA because TEPA has one more amine group than TETA in the molecule. The results also indicated that the samples had good adsorption capacities at the loadings ranging from 30% to 35%. Among them, the sample modified by TEPA with the loading of 35% had the maximum adsorption capacity of 2.9[Formula: see text]mmol/g. After five cycles of adsorption/desorption, the adsorption capacity only dropped 4.59%, indicating that the adsorbent of PE-KIT-6 modified by TEPA has good cyclic stability.

Mesoporous hollow silica material (MHS) was synthesized using polystyrene as a template. Later, it was modified by wet impregnation with tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) as a solid adsorbent for CO2 capture. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), IR, and TGA were used to characterize the average diameter, shell thickness, crystalline structure, and TEPA load of the prepared adsorbents. An increase in the amount of loaded TEPA, improved the CO2 adsorption capacity of the prepared adsorbents. The highest CO2 adsorption capacity was obtained using a 50 wt% TEPA load (AMHS-50).

Abstract In this work, montmorillonite (Mt) was modified by environmentally friendly arginine (Arg) and lysine (Lys) amino acids with di-cationic groups for arsenic removal from contaminated water. The modified Mts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, zeta potential and thermal analysis. The adsorption of As(V) onto modified Mts as a function of initial As(V) concentration, contact time and solution pH was investigated. The removal efficiency was increased with increasing the As(V) concentration and contact time; however, it was decreased with increasing solution pH. The maximum As(V) adsorption capacities of Mt-Arg and Mt-Lys were 11.5 and 11 mg/g, respectively, which were five times larger than pristine Mt. The high adsorption capacity makes them promising candidates for arsenic removal from contaminated water. The regeneration studies were carried out up to 10 cycles for both modified Mts. The obtained results confirmed that the modified adsorbents could also be effectively used for As(V) removal from water for multiple adsorption – desorption cycles.

Mg-Al-LDH is a chemical compound produced through co-precipitation technique and modified with Cu(NO3)2.6H2O to form Mg-Al/Cu. However, the research on the capability of these compounds for adsorbing mixtures of cationic dyes as well as malachite green (MG), methylene blue (MB), and Rodhamine-B (Rh-B) has not been carried out. Therefore, this research aims to determine the performance of Mg-Al-LDH and Mg-Al/Cu for removing cationic dyes. The materials used were characterized by using XRD powder, FT-IR, and N2 adsorption desorption. The Adsorption process was conducted by batch system and several effects were investigated, such as kinetic parameter, isotherm, and the temperature condition. The stability feature of Mg-Al-LDH and Mg-Al/Cu was obtained from the regeneration process in the five cycles. The results presented that Mg-Al/Cu was effectively produced, which was indicated by the formation of layer at 10.792° (003), 22.94° (006), 35.53° (112), 55.78° (110), and  56.59° (116). Mg-Al-LDH and Mg-Al/Cu were found to adsorbed MG than the other cationic dyes with adsorption capacity of 68.996 mg/g and 104.167 mg/g, respectively. The unique properties of Mg-Al/Cu includes, structural stability towards the reuse of adsorbent subsequently for five times, without significant decrease of adsorption capacity.

Abstract In this study, MIL-101(Fe), MIL-101(Fe,Cu), and Graphene Oxide (GO) /MIL-101(Fe,Cu) were synthesized to compose a novel sorbent. The adsorption properties of these three MOFs-based composites were compared toward the removal of phosphate. Furthermore, the influencing factors including reaction time, pH, temperature and initial concentration on the adsorption capacity of phosphate on these materials as well as the reusability of the material were discussed. The structure of fabricated materials and the removal mechanism of phosphate on the composite material were analyzed by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis and zeta potential. The results show that the maximum adsorption capacity of phosphate by the composite GO/MIL-101(Fe,Cu)-2% was 204.60 mg·g− 1, which is higher than that of MIL-101(Fe,Cu) and MIL-101(Fe). likewise the specific surface area of GO/MIL-101(Fe,Cu)-2% is 778.11 m2/g is higher than that of MIL-101(Fe,Cu) and MIL-101(Fe),which are 747.75 and 510.66m2/g respectively. The adsorption mechanism of phosphate is electrostatic attraction, form coordination bonds and hydrogen bonds. The fabricated material is a promising adsorbent for the removal of phosphate with good reusability.

Our study aims to evaluate the efficiency of dissolved iron (III) retention in synthetic solutions by adsorption on treated natural phosphate collected in the Khouribga region. This research focused on the valorization of phosphate, a naturally occurring resource that is abundant in Morocco. The resulting products were analyzed by various methods, including FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In this work, we studied the effect of several parameters such as adsorbent amount, contact time, solution pH, and initial concentration of iron (III) on the adsorption process. The results of the adsorption of iron (III) indicate that the efficiency was achieved after 5 minutes, and the maximum adsorption capacity calculated from the Langmuir model was 26.18 mg g-1. The regeneration and reuse of synthesized adsorbent are effective for five cycles of adsorption-desorption cycles without reducing adsorption capacity.

A nanocrystalline zeolite of Na-X type (CFAZ) was synthesized by ultrasonic-assisted double stage fusion-hydrothermal alkaline conversion of lignite coal fly ash. Modified CFAZ with magnetic nanoparticles (MNP-CFAZ) was obtained by adding presynthesized magnetic nanoparticles between the synthesis stages. CFAZs loaded by particles of copper (Cu-CFAZ) and cobalt (Co-CFAZ) oxides were prepared by postsynthesis modification of the parent CFAZ, applying a wet impregnation technique. The parent and modified CFAZs were examined for their phase composition by X-ray diffraction, morphology by scanning electron microscopy, and surface characteristics by N2 physisorption. Comparative studies have been carried out on the adsorption capacity of the starting CFAZ and its derivatives with respect to Cd2+- and Pb2+-ions from aqueous solutions. Adsorption isotherms of Cd2+-ions on the studied samples were plotted and described by the adsorption equations of Langmuir, Freundlich, Langmuir–Freundlich, and Temkin. The best correlation between the experimental and model isotherms for the parent and modified CFAZ was found with the Langmuir linear model, assuming a monolayer adsorption mechanism. Parent and modified CFAZs were also studied as catalysts for heterogeneous thermal Fenton oxidation of methylene blue. At 90 °C, the higher catalytic activity exhibits the nonmodified sample, but with the decrease in temperature to 60 °C, the modified samples are more effective catalysts.

In this work, the ionic liquid [Aliquat][Cl] was supported into alginate and silica aerogel matrices and applied as a catalyst in the cycloaddition reaction between CO2 and a bio-based epoxide (limonene oxide). The efficiency of the alginate aerogel system is much higher than that of the silica one. The method of wet impregnation was used for the impregnation of the aerogel with [Aliquat][Cl] and a zinc complex. The procedure originated a well-defined thin solvent film on the surface of support materials. Final materials were characterised by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, N2 Adsorption–Desorption Analysis, X-ray diffraction, atomic absorption and Field Emission Scanning Microscopy. Several catalytic tests were performed in a high-pressure apparatus at 353.2 K and 4 MPa of CO2.
