Abstract
To overcome the limitations of complex preparation and suboptimal performance of CO2 adsorbents, the present work synthesized a polymetallic oxide-loaded biochar (MgO·FeOx@biochar) with good performance in one step using a green and simple method of microwave-synergized K2FeO4. MgO·FeOx@biochar-700–10-0.1 with a hierarchical porous structure, abundant adsorption sites and well-distributed basic sites was obtained by optimizing the preparation parameters, which had a good CO2 trapping performance of 4.92 mol/kg with a retention rate of 83.01 % over 20 cycles, and exhibited good selectivity for O2 and N2. CO2 capture by MgO·FeOx@biochar was predominantly driven by chemical interaction between surface adsorption sites and CO2, supplemented by microporous filling. The adsorption kinetics revealed that the CO2 adsorption rate of MgO·FeOx@biochar was influenced by the combined effect of membrane diffusion resistance and intraparticle diffusion resistance. This study established a theoretical basis and technical insight for the environmentally friendly and efficient preparation of high-performance biochar-based CO2 adsorbents.
