Abstract
- This paper was aimed to study the influence of modification of biochar on the performance of CO 2 adsorption. Biochar, obtained from cotton stalk pyrolysis in a fixed bed reactor, was modified with ammonia and CO 2. The physicochemical properties of biochars were characterized by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and automatic adsorption equipment (Micromeritics, ASAP 2020, USA). CO 2 adsorption of biochar was performed in thermogravimetric analyzer. The results showed that the surface area of char was increased significantly by CO 2 modification, while N-contained compound on char surface was enriched obviously by NH 3 modification. CO 2 adsorption of biochar increased greatly with CO 2 and NH 3 modification. CO 2 adsorption was mainly attributed to physical adsorption at 20 °C, and the adsorption quantity (maximum = 99 mg/g) was proportional to the micropore volume of the char. However, at 120 °C, molecular thermal motion increase, chemical adsorption start to play a dominated role, and the adsorption was directly proportional to the N content of this char.
