Effect of K_(2)CO_(3) doping on CO_(2) sorption performance of silicate lithium-based sorbent prepared from citric acid treated sediment

摘要

In this paper,a low-cost and environmental-friendly leaching agent citric acid(C_(6)H_(8)O_(7))was used to treat the sediment of Dianchi Lake(SDL)to synthesize lithium silicate(Li_(4)SiO_(4))based CO_(2)sorbent.The results were compared with that treated with strong acid.Moreover,the effects of preparation conditions,sorption conditions and desorption conditions on the CO_(2)sorption performance of prepared Li_(4)SiO_(4)were systematically studied.Under optimal conditions,the Li_(4)SiO_(4)sorbent was successfully synthesized and its CO_(2)sorption capacity reached 31.37%(mass),which is much higher than that synthesized from SDL treated with strong acid.It is speculated that the presence of some elements after C_(6)H_(8)O_(7)treatment may promote the sorption of synthetic Li_(4)SiO_(4)to CO_(2).In addition,after doping with K_(2)CO_(3),the CO_(2)uptake increases from the original 12.02%and 22.12%to 23.96%and 32.41%(mass)under the 20%and 50%CO_(2)partial pressure,respectively.More importantly,after doping K_(2)CO_(3),the synthesized Li_(4)SiO_(4)has a high cyclic stability under the low CO_(2)partial pressure.
