This study proposes the use of a cobalt-based Prussian blue analogue (Co-PBA; potassium cobalt hexacyanoferrate), as an adsorbent for the cost-effective recovery of aqueous ammonium ions. The characterization of Co-PBA involved various techniques, including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis, and zeta potential. The prepared Co-PBA reached an adsorption equilibrium for ammonium ions within approximately 480 min, which involved both surface adsorption and subsequent diffusion into the interior. The isotherm experiment revealed a maximum adsorption capacity of 37.29 mg/g, with the Langmuir model indicating a predominance of chemical monolayer adsorption. Furthermore, the material consistently demonstrated adsorption efficiency across a range of pH conditions. Notably, adsorption was observed even when competing cations were present. Co-PBA emerges as a readily synthesized adsorbent, underscoring its efficacy in ammonium removal and selectivity toward ammonium.

Adsorption experiment of carbon dioxide was performed on MCM41 silica with a 30 wt.% EDA(ethylenediamine) loading at different $CO_2$ inlet concentration and various adsorption temperature. The surface characteristics of $CO_2$ capturing agent were carried out using BET analysis, X-ray diffraction and FT-IR. The results of BET showed 781 $m^2/g$ for MCM41 and 464 $m^2/g$ for EDA/MCM41. X-ray diffraction results reveled typical hexagonal pore system. The higher sorption capacity of EDA/MCM41 was about 80 $mg_{CO2}/g_{sorbent}$ with 50% $CO_2$ inlet concentration and 303 K adsorption temperature. The isosteric heat of adsorption in 303-353 K ranged from -25.47 to -28.24 KJ/mole for EDA/MCM41, which indicates $CO_2$-EDA/MCM41 interaction with exothermic adsorption process. Finally, the performance of EDA/MCM41 in 10 consecutive sorption-desorption runs was a stable with only a minor drop in its sorption capacity.

In order to minimize a building energy consumption with ventilation, a development of smart ventilation system is very important. In this study, a dry adsorbent that is main element of smart ventilation system was developed for removing indoor $CO_2$, and evaluate the adsorption performance. Specific surface area, pore characteristic and crystal structure of the modified sorbent was measured to analyze physical properties. From this analysis, it was found that the developed absorbent has a low specific surface area, due to mesopores of substrate was filled with metal contained raw material. Additionally, through analysis of the adsorption properties, the developed adsorbent was shown a adsorption form of mesopore (type IV), which means adsorption amount was rapidly increased at the part of high-pressure. Order to applying for the field, chamber test was performed. Continuous column tests (2,500 ppm) and batch chamber tests ($4m^3$, 5,000 ppm) showed $CO_2$ removal efficiency of 95% and 88% within 1 hour, respectively.

The isotherms of CO adsorption on the Cu/ZnO sample treated with with hydrogen and methanol are investigated. The heats of adsorption of CO on the Cu/ZnO treated with hydrogen at 723K for 3 h are in the range from 25.7 kJ/mol at $\theta=0.8$ to 59.8 at $\theta=0.1$, while those on the Cu/ZnO sample treated with methanol at 523 K for 3 h are in the range 30.3 kJ/mol at $\theta=0.8$ to 99.8kJ/mol at $\theta=0.1.$ The Cu/ZnO samples treated with hydrogen do. The heats of adsorption at q=0.1 increase with the methanol treatment time within 30 min and leveled off afterwards.

This study deals with the effect of pretreatment on the $CO_2$ adsorption capacity of zeolitic adsorbents including a commercial A-type zeolite and cation exchanged adsorbents. The pre-heating could change the intrinsic properties such as specific surface area and adsorption capacity of the adsorbent. As a result of the experiment, the moisture previously filled inside might affect the potential adsorption capacity of the adsorbent, and could be disappeared throughout the heat treatment. An optimum pretreatment temperature for the test adsorbent was found to be $400^{\circ}C$, at which temperature enabled more than 90% refreshment. Precise examination through the TPD test showed that the TSA (Temperature Swing Adsorption) process would be desirable in dry adsorption of $CO_2$.

Zeolite 5A 촉매에서 $H_2$, CO, $CO_2$에 대한 단성분 및 혼합성분의 흡착평형 실험을 정적부피법에 의해 수행하였다. 실험 데이타는 온도범위 293.15 K, 303.15 K, 313.15 K이고, 압력범위는 25 atm까지로 하여 얻었다. 각각의 파라미터들은 단성분 실험을 통해 얻었고, 이를 통해 혼합성분의 흡착 평형을 예측하였으며 실험값과 비교하였다. Zeolite 5A 에서의 $H_2/CO_2$, $CO/CO_2$ 혼합가스의 흡착평형 실험 결과는 Langmuir isotherm, Langmuir-Freundlich isotherm and Dual-Site Langmuir isotherm을 이용해 예측하였다. 그 결과 Dual-Site Langmuir isotherm모델이 가장 유사한 예측을 하는 것으로 나타났다.

Industrial gas drying, dilute gas mixtures purification, air fractionation, hydrogen production from steam reformers and petroleum refinery off-gases, etc are conducted by using adsorptive separation technology. The pressure swing adsorption (PSA) has certain advantages over the other methods, such as absorption and membrane, that are a low energy requirement and cost-effectiveness. A key component of PSA systems is adsorbents that should be highly selective to a gas being separated from its mixture streams and have isotherms suitable for the operation principle. The six standard types of isotherms have been examined in this review, and among them the best behavior in the adsorption of $CO_2$ as a function of pressure was proposed in aspects of maximizing a working capacity upon excursion between adsorption and desorption cycles. Zeolites and molecular sieves are historically typical adsorbents for such PSA applications in gas and related industries, and their physicochemical features, e.g., framework, channel structure, pore size, Si-to-Al ratio (SAR), and specific surface area, are strongly associated with the extent of $CO_2$ adsorption at given conditions and those points have been extensively described with literature data. A great body of data of $CO_2$ adsorption on the nanoporous zeolitic materials have been collected according to pressure ranges adsorbed, and these isotherms have been discussed to get an insight into a better $CO_2$ adsorbent for PSA processes.

The present study investigated waste medium from a domestic shiitake mushroom farm, which was pyrolyzed to produce biochar. The yield rate of the biochar was compared after exposure to various pyrolysis temperature conditions, and the characteristics of the produced biochar were analyzed. The present study focused on the carbon dioxide (CO₂) adsorption capacity of the resulting biochar. The CO₂ adsorption capacity exhibited a correlation with the pyrolysis temperature of the biochar, with increasing temperatures resulting in higher CO₂ adsorption capacities. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis showed that the CO₂ adsorption capacity was related to the surface area and pore volume of the biochar. Calcium is added to the process of producing mushroom medium. Experiments were performed to investigate the CO₂ adsorption capacity of the biochar from the waste medium with the addition of calcium. In addition, CO₂ adsorption experiments were conducted after the pyrolysis of kenaf biochar with the addition of calcium. The results of these experiments show that calcium affected the CO₂ adsorption capacity.

본 논고에서는 가스 흡착 분리 산업에서 광범위하게 적용되고 있는 압력순환흡착(pressure swing adsorption, PSA) 기술의 전형적인 흡착조건인 $15{\sim}40^{\circ}C$의 온도와 4~6 bar의 압력에서 금속-유기 골격체(metal-organic frameworks, MOF)와 제올라이트 이미다졸레이트 골격체(zeolite imidazolate frameworks, ZIF)의 $CO_2$ 흡착성능을 살펴보고 이들이 가지고 있는 장 단점을 분석해보고자 한다. $CO_2$는 $H_2$, CO, $N_2$ 및 $CH_4$와 같은 기체분자들에 비해 큰 분극률을 가지므로 동일한 세공크기라면 흡착제의 비표면적이 클수록 높은 흡착량을 보이며, $CO_2$의 분자크기($3.3{\AA}$)보다 큰 세공으로 이루어진 흡착제라면 상기 흡착조건에서의 $CO_2$ 흡착성능은 세공크기에 크게 영향을 받는다. MOF와 ZIF의 $CO_2$ 흡착성능은 이들의 골격을 이루는 금속과 유기 링커의 종류, 세공크기, 비표면적, 흡착조건(온도와 압력) 등에 따라 달라질 수 있지만, 특히 흡착압력의 영향이 절대적이다. 다시 말하면, $CO_2$의 흡착압력이 비슷할 경우 MOF와 ZIF의 $CO_2$ 흡착량에 미치는 상기 인자들의 영향은 비교적 작다. 15 bar 이상의 $CO_2$ 흡착압력에서 이 흡착제들이 수 십 mmol/g의 흡착성능을 나타낸다고 할지라도, 전형적인 PSA 공정조건에서 이들의 $CO_2$ 흡착성능은 제올라이트, 활성탄과 같은 벤치마크 흡착제들의 성능과 유사하거나 오히려 낮을 뿐만아니라, 이들의 가격은 벤치마크들에 비해 매우 높기 때문에 경제성 확보에 어려움이 있다.

산업체에서 많이 사용되는 연소공정은 배가스 성분의 회수나 제거를 필요로 한다. 최근에는 배가스로부터 이산화탄소를 회수하기 위해 제올라이트 13X를 사용하는 MBA(이동상흡착) 공정이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 제올라이트 13X에 대한 이산화탄소, 질소, 이산화황 및 수증기의 흡착 실험을 수행하여 흡착평형 및 고체입자 안으로의 흡착속도를 조사하였다. 여러 실험온도에서의 흡착데이터를 Langmuir, Toth, Freundlich 등온흡착식에 적용하여 각 흡착등온식의 파라미터를 구했고, 이론식에 의한 예측값과 실험데이터가 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 이산화황과 수증기가 불순물로 존재할 경우에 주성분인 이산화탄소의 흡착량을 측정하였다. 이성분 흡착 데이터는 순수 성분에 대해 얻어진 파라미터를 extended Langmuir 등온흡착식에 적용하여 예측한 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 다만, $H_2O$ 불순물이 대략 ${\sim}10^{-5}H_2O\;mol/g$ zeolite 13X 이하 존재할 때에는 $CO_2$ 흡착량이 순수 $CO_2$의 흡착보다 오히려 소량 증가하는 현상이 관찰되었다. 실험으로 측정한 흡착속도를 구형 입자 확산모델에 적용하여 이산화탄소, 이산화황, 질소, 수분의 확산계수와 활성화에너지를 구했다. 미량의 불순물이 흡착되어있을 때는 이산화탄소나 이산화황의 확산계수가 줄어들었다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 파라미터 값들은 실제 흡착공정의 설계에 유용할 것이다.
