Technical Field
The invention relates to preparation and application of an environmental catalyst, in particular to a preparation method of a nitrogen-containing porous organic polymer and application thereof in CO2The application of adsorption and conversion.
Background
After entering the industrial era from the world, the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the resulting climate and environmental problems such as global warming and ocean acidification are receiving attention. The emission of acid gases such as carbon dioxide mainly comes from industrial activities, which mainly depend on the use of fossil fuels, for example, a great amount of carbon dioxide is removed from the tail gas of water gas shift reaction in coal gasification industry, so it is very important to eliminate carbon dioxide from industrial tail gas to alleviate various environmental problems. At present, the amine solution is due to the CO2Has been widely used for CO at low cost and reversible chemical reaction2Is selected fromAnd (4) selectively capturing. But has the problems of great solvent volatilization loss, serious corrosion of equipment and the like. Therefore, an efficient and pollution-free adsorption medium was developed to replace amine solutions for CO2Selective capture is important.
In recent years, scientists have conducted extensive research work on the selective capture of CO from industrial flue gases2The porous material is used as an absorbent, and the materials have the advantages of no volatility, no corrosion, easy regeneration and the like. Porous Organic Polymers (POPs), one of the most advanced materials, attract extensive attention of researchers due to their diversification in construction and synthesis routes, thereby providing an idea for structural and functional design. Furthermore, POPs covalently bound to them generally have high physical and chemical stability. Thus, POPs are in CO2Has great application potential in capture. However, POPs are on CO2The capture performance of (a) depends not only on its structural properties but also on the active sites it has. Specific functional groups, particularly nitrogen sites, are introduced into the POPs framework, so that the CO content of the POPs can be greatly improved2Capture efficiency due to CO2Unique Lewis acid-base interaction with nitrogen sites to achieve higher CO2/N2And (4) selectivity.
Much research is currently done on CO2The adsorbent mainly comprises active carbon, alumina, molecular sieve, silicon dioxide and the like. Patent No. CN107661748A discloses an organic amine functionalized macroporous silica CO2The adsorbent is organic amine functional macroporous silicon dioxide CO formed by taking organic amine as an active component2CO of adsorbent2The adsorption capacity is greatly improved, the dynamic adsorption capacity reaches 208mg/g, and the regeneration cycle stability is good. But the organic amine in the functionalization process can affect human bodies and the environment, thereby influencing the further application and development of the adsorbent. Patent No. CN108079956A discloses a novel multi-stage micro/mesoporous solid amine adsorbent, which is prepared by mixing HZSM-5 and MCM-41 according to different mass ratios to obtain a composite molecular sieve carrier, and taking Tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) as a modifier, wherein when the mass ratio of the HZSM-5 to the MCM-41 is 1: 1, the TEPA loading amount is 30%, and the adsorption temperature is highWhen the temperature is 55 ℃ and the air inlet flow is 30mL/min, the equilibrium adsorption amount is up to 3.57mmol/g, and after 10 times of adsorption and desorption cycles, the adsorption amount is reduced by 8.1 percent. Although the above adsorbent also has a good adsorption effect, it requires activation with an organic amine to obtain its active site, resulting in a lack of stability of its adsorption performance. Therefore, under the catalysis of Lewis acid, the nitrogen-containing monomer and 1, 4-p-dichlorobenzyl are selected to synthesize the nitrogen-containing porous organic polymer through alkylation induced crosslinking. The obtained nitrogen-containing polymer has stable nitrogen-containing active sites, a large proportion of mesoporous macropores, unique carbon dioxide enrichment characteristic and high CO2/N2Selectively, the N-POPs adsorbent is subjected to CO in the industrial waste gas2The high-selectivity adsorption has good application prospect.
