Abstract

AbstractAn engineered process for scalable manufacture of a calcium aluminum carbonate CO2 sorbent with production amounts of about 1000 g per hour has been developed. The process includes mixing and heating, solid‐liquid separation, drying and extrusion, crushing and conveying, and calcined molding steps. The sorbent preparation involves the coprecipitation of Ca2+, Al3+, and CO32– under alkaline conditions. By adjusting the Ca:Al molar ratio, a series of Ca‐rich materials could be synthesized for use as CO2 sorbents at 750 °C. A calcium acetate‐derived sorbent exhibited better cyclic stability than sorbents originating from CaCl2 and Ca(NO3)2. The initial sorption capacity increased with CaO concentration. High stability of more than 90 % was maintained by the Ca:Al sorbents after 40 looping tests.
