Abstract:

Facing the global challenges of energy shortage and increasing greenhouse effect, the development of gas separation technology based on molecular sieving principle is of great significance for reducing energy consumption and alleviating greenhouse effect. This sieving technology shows great potential for realizing CO2 capture in flue gas and N2 removal from natural gas, and it is challenging to realize effective molecular sieving of CO2, N2 and CH4 molecules due to the similarity of physical properties among these gases. In this paper, based on the flexibility of zeolite frameworks (both rigid and flexible) and their sieving characteristics, molecular sieving was categorized into three separation mechanisms: size sieving mechanism (the most common sieving based on molecular size differences), molecular trapdoor mechanism and framework breathing-gated cation synergistic mechanism. The article comprehensively illustrated the constitutive relationships between zeolite framework types, framework rigidity (flexibility) and pore-blocking groups (including the type, number and position of equilibrium cations) with their performance in the sieve separation of CO2, N2, and CH4 gases.

摘要:

面对能源短缺与温室效应加剧的全球性挑战,开发基于分子筛分原理的气体分离技术对降低能源消耗和缓解温室效应具有重要意义。这种筛分技术在烟气中实现CO2捕集以及从天然气中脱除N2方面展现出较大潜力,由于CO2、N2和CH4分子之间的物理性质相似,实现这3种气体的有效分子筛分充满挑战。本文基于沸石骨架(包括刚性骨架和柔性骨架)的灵活性及其筛分特征,将分子筛分归纳为3种分离机制:尺寸筛分机制(基于分子尺寸差异最常见的筛分方式)、分子陷阱门机制以及骨架呼吸-门控阳离子协同机制。本文全面阐述了沸石骨架类型、骨架刚(柔)性以及孔隙阻塞基团(包括平衡阳离子的类型、数量和位置)和其与CO2、N2和CH4气体筛分分离性能之间的构效关系。
