- 摘要：Power plants emit sulfur dioxide (SO2) during combustion, which is typically removed via wet flue gas desulfurization, but this process produces numerous secondary pollutants. Ionic liquids (ILs) can potentially be used to remove SO2, but they suffer from poor mass transfer rates. Hydroxyl ammonium ILs are classical cheap ILs that contain electron-rich O and N sites that favor high absorption capacities. To accelerate mass transfer, two hydroxyl ammonium ILs, triethanolamine citrate and triethanolamine lactate, were immobilized on activated carbon (SILs) and used to capture SO2 from simulated flue gas. They exhibited excellent adsorption at low SO2 partial pressures due to the presence of a large gas-liquid interface. The molar adsorption ratios reached 7.65 and 2.40 mol/mol at 10 kPa SO2. The SILs possessed good SO2 selectivity in SO2/CO2 and SO2/O-2 mixtures, because of the only 8% reduction in the total adsorption of SILs at 60 degrees C. And they exhibited excellent reversibility in which their total adsorption capacities were unaffected after 5 adsorption-desorption cycles. The mechanism analysis revealed that chemical adsorption was the major adsorption route, although physical adsorption also occurred. The main reactive sites included C-O and N-H groups in the ionic liquid. These SILs may potentially replace traditional chemical absorption materials for the separation of SO2 from flue gas.
