The study investigated the potential of using adsorbent derived from agricultural by-product-based activated carbon functionalized by deep eutectic solvents for CO2 capturing. The modified AC with TBAB and TEG showed the highest CO2 adsorption capacity, indicating favorable and spontaneous adsorption process. Regeneration evaluation demonstrated that the modified AC sample was reusable for more than nine cycles.
The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of adsorbent derived from agricultural by-product-based activated carbon (AC) functionalized by deep eutectic solvents (DESs) for CO2 capturing application. Three types of DES, namely Tetrabutylammonium Bromide (TBAB), Methyltriphenylphosphonium Bromide (MTPB), and Triethlyene Glycol (TEG) were synthesized and functionalized with AC using the impregnation method. The characteristics of the prepared adsorbents were analyzed, including the freezing/melting point, viscosity, surface morphology, elemental composition, and BET surface area. Following the characterization, the CO2 breakthrough adsorption analysis was performed in a packed-bed reactor. The results revealed that the modified AC with the combination of TBAB and TEG showed the maximum CO2 adsorption capacity of 16.5 mg/g compared to other adsorbents mixtures. The maximum adsorption capacity was achieved at a breakthrough time, temperature, gas flow rate and CO2 concentration of 11.5 minutes, 25(degrees)C, 200 mL/min, and 10%, respectively. Furthermore, the adsorption process was thermodynamically favorable and spontaneous under exothermic reaction as indicated by the negative values of both the Gibbs free energy ( increment G degrees) and enthalpy ( increment H degrees). The regeneration evaluation also demonstrated that the modified AC sample was recyclable and reusable for more than nine cycles.
