Abstract
Herein,a hollow microtubular Fe/Mn-promoted CaO-Ca_(12)Al_(14)O_(33)bi-functional material was prepared by the bio-template method and used for H2 production from sorption enhanced water gas shift(SEWGS).The microtubular Fe/Mn-promoted CaO-Ca_(12)Al_(14)O_(33)exhibits excellent CO2 capture and H2 production performance in SEWGS/regeneration cycles.The stable hollow microtubular structure improves available adsorption and catalytic sites in Fe/Mn-promoted CaO-Ca_(12)Al_(14)O_(33)for CO2 capture and H2 production.Mn addition improves CO2 affinity capacity of the microtubular material.The Fe-Mn interaction increases redox ability of Fe~(3+)/Fe~(3+,2+),which promotes CO conversion.Moreover,the formed Ca2Fe2O5 and Ca2MnO4 both increase oxygen vacancies to promote catalytic activity of the microtubular material for WGS and its CO2 capture capacity.The CO conversions for the microtubular material with the Fe/Mn/Al/Ca molar ratio= 10/2/10/100 are 98.7% and 94.0% after 20 cycles under the mild and severe calcination conditions,respectively.The hollow microtubular bi-functional material shows good prospect for efficient H2 production from SEWGS.
