Abstract |
Effective integration of the CO2 2 capture from flue gases and its subsequent methanation with renewable H2 2 to achieve a net-zero chemical looping process poses strong challenges in the development of highly performing Dual Function Materials (DFMs). Li-Ru/Al2O3 2 O 3 DFM has been shown to optimally operate the cyclic process at low temperature (260 - 280 degrees C) with stable performance upon ageing and outstanding tolerance to SOx x impurities in the flue gas, which, however, slowly deteriorate its CO2 2 capture capacity. This work investigates the mechanisms behind the sulfur-poisoning and self-regeneration capability of the catalytic features of the Li-Ru DFM as well as the irreversible inhibition of CO2 2 adsorption. Eventually, we demonstrate the remarkable effectiveness of a simple ex-situ regeneration procedure for a heavily sulfur-aged DFM aiming to minimize the consumption of critical raw materials within a circular economy approach. |
