Abstract

CO2is one of the main contributors to the greenhouse effect, and the separation of CO2from flue gas has become a focus of research. Functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) incorporated into solid adsorbents offer dual benefits as carriers and ILs, effectively addressing the challenges associated with the high viscosity of ILs and amine leaching. In this study, mesoporous KIT-6 serves as the carrier, while tetraethylenepentamine nitrate ([TEPA][NO3]) and tetraethylenepentamine lysine ([TEPA][Lys]) function as modifiers, resulting in two distinct adsorption materials designated K6PX and K6LX. The impact of varying IL loadings (10 wt%–70 wt%) and temperature on CO2adsorption performance was systematically investigated. Under mixed gas conditions comprising N2/CO2(85/15 vol%) at 60 °C, K6P60% exhibited a maximum CO2adsorption capacity of 3.13 mmol·g−1, while K6L65% reached 2.77 mmol·g−1. Notably, after five cycles of adsorption–desorption testing, K6P60% maintained an impressive adsorption capacity of 2.71 mmol·g−1, demonstrating excellent cycling stability.Graphical abstract
