Abstract

In this paper, coal fly ash was modified by the hydrothermal synthesis method based on sodium hydroxide solution, and then was macerated by ethanol amine. Then we obtained the solid amine adsorbents used to absorb CO2. The modified fly ash was investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the specific surface area analyzer (BET) for the microstructure and specific surface area. Then, the solid CO2 adsorbent was analyzed by fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR) and thermal analyzer (TGA) in CO2 atmosphere. Results showed that modified fly ash generated many kinds of zeolite material by the SEM and the BET analysis, greatly increasing the specific surface area, improved the adsorption capacity. FT-IR analysis that the surface of solid amine CO2 adsorbent with amine groups; TGA analysis that compared with the original fly ash, CO2 adsorbent by this paper made has the capability of adsorption of CO2.
