Abstract
AbstractCO2 capture technology has been widely used to reduce CO2 emissions, resulting in a variety of capture methods and materials. Among them, the more widely used is the chemical absorption method. However, the chemical absorption method has problems such as high energy consumption and slow absorption rate. In order to solve the above problems, we prepared an effective catalyst to improve the CO2 absorption rate. ZIF‐8 and hydrophilic ZIF‐8‐DA were prepared by in situ synthesis under ambient conditions. The catalytic effect of the hydration reaction of ZIF‐8 and ZIF‐8‐DA was tested using CO2 absorption regeneration experiments under aqueous and alkaline conditions, respectively. The results showed that the synthesized catalysts could significantly enhance the CO2 absorption in water and alkaline solution. The addition of 0.1 wt % of ZIF‐8 in alkaline solution increased the average CO2 absorption by 1.80–15.84 %, respectively, while the addition of 0.1 wt % of ZIF‐8‐DA increased the CO2 absorption by 7.01–25.36 %. In addition, both catalysts had excellent reusability and maintained high performance even after five absorption and regeneration cycles. Polymer dispersibility index (PDI) results showed that ZIF‐8‐DA dispersed more uniformly in aqueous solution.
