 Accelerated CO2 capture on adsorbent coated finned tube: An experimental studyFaezeh Esmaeili, Mohsen Gholami and Mohammad Hojjat Energy, 2019, vol. 187, issue C Abstract: In this study, the external surface of a finned tube was coated by 13X zeolite powder, and the CO2 adsorption equilibrium and dynamics were investigated experimentally. A slurry consisting of dionized water, 13X zeolite powder, and Acrylic latex emulsion (ALE) was used to coat the finned tube. The finned tube was coated by deep coating method. The equilibrium isotherms were measured at the range of 20–90 °C and fitted well by the dual-site Langmuir model. The average difference between the model and the results obtained from the experiments is about 2.5%. The nitrogen adsorption/desorption at 77 K was used for characterization of adsorbents. A 11% reduction was observed in pore volume and surface area. The dynamic test showed that the desorption of adsorbed CO2 takes place in about 14 s which is an order of magnitude faster than the fastest developed method. A conservative criterion was developed for estimating adsorbent working capacity. This criterion showed that the working capacities of the adsorbent are about 80% of its ideal values.
