Abstract
Herein, copper and manganese heteroatoms were incorporated into the siliceous MFI frameworks with high dispersity. When employed in the CO2/N2 binary gas separation, a delicate trade-off for the CO2 adsorption capacity, adsorption heat and moisture resistance could be realized on the heteroatom-incorporated MFI zeolites, especially the Cu-incorporated one. In order to confirm the role that heteroatoms played in CO2 adsorption, the textural analyses were then conduced, which proved that the enhanced microporosity may be at the heart of the promoted CO2 capacity. Next to that, the in situ DRIFTs spectra were continuously tracked during the dynamic adsorption process. Compared to the commercial aluminosilicate analogue, the MFI zeolites with Cu/Mn heteroatoms possesses weaker electrostatic field intensity, which in consequence resulted in their stronger moisture resistance, even in presence of humidity up to 90 RH%. As such, a bottom-up adjustment for the adsorption properties of zeolites in practical environment containing competitive moisture impurity was shown.
