CO2 Capture Performance of Zeolite 13X Monoliths Under Contaminated Gas Conditions

An investigation by Qasim Al Naddaf at Missouri University of Science and Technology evaluated CO2 capture performance. The study compared zeolite 13X monoliths with 600 and 800 cpsi to 13X beads under dry and humid conditions with SO2 and NO impurities. Dynamic breakthrough tests measured changes in capture capacity, uptake, selectivity, and adsorption kinetics.

Use Cases

• Compare adsorbent performance based on monolith cell density (600 vs. 800 cpsi) and form factor (monolith vs. bead) mentioned in the description
• Model the impact of gas impurities (SO2, NO) on CO2 capture capacity and kinetics described in the study
• Analyze the effect of humidity on CO2 uptake and CO2/N2 selectivity under contaminated feed conditions
• Evaluate adsorbent material suitability for realistic flue gas conditions based on the described experimental findings

Strengths

• Direct comparison of two specific monolith geometries (600 and 800 cpsi) with a bead form factor
• Experimental evaluation under multiple controlled conditions: dry-clean, dry-contaminated, and humid-contaminated
• Findings indicate the importance of testing under realistic conditions, a key conclusion of the study
