Abstract

Herein, a lithium modified Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-90 (ZIF-90-OLi) was used in a slurry with its organic ligand Imidazole Carboxaldehyde (ICA) water, and glycol to improve the process conditions for the capture system and enhance the sorption ability. The performance of this slurry was compared to two other slurries, one based on the parent ZIF-90 nanoporous material with ICA/water/glycol and another based on ZIF-8, its organic ligand Methylimidazole (MIm) and water/glycol. The comparison to ZIF-8 was done because of its use as a ZIF of reference in carbon capture. The maximum sorption capacity for CO2 by the alkali containing slurry was 7.19 mol/L and the maximum CO2/N2 selectivity was 222.93 compared to 2.72 mol/L and 121.63 for the ZIF-8/water/glycol/mlm slurry.
