The effect of synthetic routes in improving the CO2 capacity of hydrotalcite based sorbents in the temperature range 300-400 degrees C has been studied. Ultrasonication and microwave irradiation of the synthesis gel during hydrotalcite precipitation leads to disruption in the layer stacking which in turn increases surface area. A correlation was observed between the increased surface area and improved equilibrium and dynamic CO2 capacity. A temperature dependent promotional effect of K2CO3 on CO2 capacity improvement was also observed. The CO2 loaded hydrotalcites were found to be regenerable by inert purge with or without evacuation at a slightly elevated temperature of similar to 450 degrees C. The dynamic CO2 capacity was found to remain stable under cyclic adsorption regeneration conditions. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
