Aqueous solutions of N,N-dimethyl-dipropylene-diamino-triacetonediamine (EvA34)are promising solvents for CO2 capture. Therefore, in the present work, a compre-hensive experimental study was carried out to determine data on physico-chemicalproperties of EvA34 and its mixtures with H2O and CO2. The liquid density and thedynamic viscosity was studied for pure EvA34, as well as for unloaded and CO2-loaded aqueous solutions of EvA34. The liquid heat capacity was studied for pure EvA34and unloaded aqueous solutions of EvA34. Furthermore, data on the vapor pressure ofpure EvA34 was recorded. The pH-value was measured for unloaded and CO2-loadedaqueous solutions of EvA34 and the dissociation constants of EvA34 were determinedfrom titration curves. Moreover, data on the solubility of CO2 in aqueous solutions ofEvA34 and data on the CO2-containing species in the liquid phase of these solutionswere recorded. Most of the new data was taken at temperatures between 293 and 393K. The mass fraction of EvA34 in the unloaded aqueous solutions was either ~ w0EvA34= 0.1 g/g or ~ w0EvA34 = 0.4 g/g. The CO2-loading was up to ~?CO2 = 6.2 mol/mol. Thenew data were compared to corresponding data of two standard amines that are usedfor CO2 capture: monoethanolamine (MEA) and a blend of methyl-diethanolamineand piperazine (MDEA/PZ). The comparison revealed that EvA34 combines favorableproperties of MEA and MDEA/PZ in one molecule.

To address the issue of global warming and climate change issues, recent research efforts have highlighted opportunities for capturing and electrochemically converting carbon dioxide (CO2). Despite metal doped polymers receiving widespread attention in this respect, the structures hitherto reported lack in ease of synthesis with scale up feasibility. In this study, a series of mesoporous metal-doped polymers (MRFs) with tunable metal functionality and hierarchical porosity were successfully synthesized using a one-step copolymerization of resorcinol and formaldehyde with Polyethyleneimine (PEI) under solvothermal conditions. The effect of PEI and metal doping concentrations were observed on physical properties and adsorption results. The results confirmed the role of PEI on the mesoporosity of the polymer networks and high surface area in addition to enhanced CO2 capture capacity. The resulting Cobalt doped material shows excellent thermal stability and promising CO2 capture performance, with equilibrium adsorption of 2.3 mmol CO2/g at 0 °C and 1 bar for at a surface area 675.62 m2/g. This mesoporous polymer, with its ease of synthesis is a promising candidate for promising for CO2 capture and possible subsequent electrochemical conversion.

A thermodynamic model and parametric analysis of a natural gas-fired power plant with carbon dioxide (CO2) capture using multistage chemical looping combustion (CLC) are presented. CLC is an innovative concept and an attractive option to capture CO2 with a significantly lower energy penalty than other carbon-capture technologies. The principal idea behind CLC is to split the combustion process into two separate steps (redox reactions) carried out in two separate reactors: an oxidation reaction and a reduction reaction, by introducing a suitable metal oxide which acts as an oxygen carrier (OC) that circulates between the two reactors. In this study, an Aspen Plus model was developed by employing the conservation of mass and energy for all components of the CLC system. In the analysis, equilibrium-based thermodynamic reactions with no OC deactivation were considered. The model was employed to investigate the effect of various key operating parameters such as air, fuel, and OC mass flow rates, operating pressure, and waste heat recovery on the performance of a natural gas-fired power plant with multistage CLC. The results of these parameters on the plant's thermal and exergetic efficiencies are presented. Based on the lower heating value, the analysis shows a thermal efficiency gain of more than 6 percentage points for CLC-integrated natural gas power plants compared to similar power plants with pre- or post-combustion CO2 capture technologies.

This study examined and compared the ability of chicken feathers, human hair and animal horns, as keratin-composed biosorbents, for the removal of Zn2+ and Cu2+ ions from single metal ion aqueous solutions under different operating conditions. The three biosorbents investigated in this study were all capable of adsorbing Zn2+ and Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions. The biosorbent showing the highest uptake of Zn2+ and Cu2+ ions was animal horns. Chicken feathers showed a higher Cu2+ ion uptake and a lower Zn2+ ion compared to human hair. Increasing the initial concentration of Zn2+ or Cu2+ ions, or increasing the initial pH value, increased the metal ion uptake. Such uptake decreased when the temperature was raised from 25°C to 50°C for all adsorbent/metal ion combinations except for Zn2+ ion/human hair where the uptake increased with temperature. It was demonstrated that the addition of NaCl salt to the metal ion solution depressed the metal ion uptake. The Freundlich isotherm model was found to be applicable to the adsorption data for Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions.
