Dry and Wet CO2 Capture from Milk‐Derived Microporous Carbons with Tuned Hydrophobicity

Dry and Wet CO2 Capture from Milk‐Derived Microporous Carbons with Tuned Hydrophobicity Pore size distribution and surface chemistry of bio‐derived (milk) microporous dominated carbon “MDC” is synergistically tuned, allowing for promising carbon capture in a dry CO2 atmosphere and in mixed H2O–CO2. The capture capacity is attributed to the synergy of a large total surface area with an ultramicroporous and microporous texture (e.g., Stot 1889 m2 g−1, Smic 1755 m2 g−1, Sultra 1393 m2 g−1), and a high content of nitrogen and oxygen heteroatom moieties (e.g., 5 at% N, 10.5 at% O).

Abstract

Pore size distribution and surface chemistry of bio‐derived (milk) microporous dominated carbon “MDC” is synergistically tuned, allowing for promising carbon capture in a dry CO2 atmosphere and in mixed H2O–CO2. The capture capacity is attributed to the synergy of a large total surface area with an ultramicroporous and microporous texture (e.g., Stot 1889 m2 g−1, Smic 1755 m2 g−1, Sultra 1393 m2 g−1), and a high content of nitrogen and oxygen heteroatom moieties (e.g., 5 at% N, 10.5 at% O). Tailored two‐step low‐temperature pyrolysis‐chemical activation is employed to take advantage of the intrinsic properties of the precursor, allowing for this unusual textural properties‐heteroatoms combination. For example, tested at 1 bar and 295 or 273 K, MDCs adsorb up to 22.0 and 29.4 wt% CO2, respectively. MDCs are also tailored to be hydrophobic, with CO2/H2O adsorption selectivity even after prolonged cycling. Maximum working capacities of 10.8 wt% for pure CO2 and 3.5 wt% for a flue gas simulant (15% CO2, 85% N2) are measured using temperature swing adsorption with dynamic purge gases, while being minimally affected by humid conditions. This work is directly aligned with the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goal 13, take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.
