Resumen
Layered double hydroxides (LDH) have been proposed as the materials that offer the best performance in the moderate-temperature range, between 200 and 450 °C, for CO2 adsorption, so the effect of some synthesis parameters and surface modification on their adsorption capacities is herein investigated.

Layered double hydroxides (LDH) have been proposed as the materials that offer the best performance in the moderate-temperature range, between 200 and 450 °C, for CO2 adsorption, so the effect of some synthesis parameters and surface modification on their adsorption capacities is herein investigated. This work reports the use of M2+ (Co, Mg, Ni and Zn)/Al layered double hydroxides synthesized with a 3:1 molar ratio by the co-precipitation method and using aluminum extracted from saline slags as source of this metal as CO2 adsorbents. The synthesis and use of Zn/TiAl is also reported considering several proportions of Al-Ti. Structural characterization and comparison of the series has been achieved using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen physisorption at single bond196 °C and thermogravimetry measurements (TGA). The performance of calcined LDH as CO2 adsorbents was evaluated in the 50 – 400 °C temperature range and 80 kPa and results show that Ni6Al2 and Mg6Al2 samples present a significant adsorption capacity at low temperature (0.382 and 0.292 mmolCO2/g, respectively). At 400 °C only Mg6Al2 maintains its high adsorption capacity (0.275 mmolCO2/g) compared to the other calcined LDH. Its adsorption capacity at moderate-temperature range was proven to be better than that of a commercial Mg6Al2 sample. In all materials the CO2 adsorption capacity at 200–450 °C increased by incorporating potassium (K2CO3 and KOH as sources) up to 0.58 mmolCO2/g for Mg6Al2 +K2CO3. The addition of the amine TEPA in the low-temperature range worked for Co6Al2 and Mg6Al2 (increment > 40 %). In the case of Zn6Al2, the partial substitution of Al by Ti also increased the CO2 adsorption capacity from 0.177 to 0.244 mmolCO2/g, finding isosteric heats between 17.07 and 23.30 kJ/mol using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation.
