Joint Theoretical and Experimental Study of the Electronic, Magnetic, and Lattice Phonon Dynamics Properties of Ca x Fe y O z Compounds Applied to CO 2 Capture
Unleashing energy innovation ensures a resilient and reliable energy supply. There is a critical need for the development of new carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) captors that have improved energy efficiency accompanied by lower capital and operational costs to ensure abundant, affordable, and secure energy. Among solid materials, CaO is a good CO 2 sorbent for capture technology due to its wide availability and low cost. However, CaO also suffers from some disadvantages, such as high calcination temperature, decreasing capability due to sintering, attrition, and reaction with SO x and NO x . In this study, we employed an ab initio thermodynamic approach and experimental measurements to improve its CO 2 capture performance during the cycles. To do so, we explored the electronic, magnetic, and lattice dynamic properties of a series of calcium ferrites (Ca x Fe y O z ) and applied them for CO 2 capture. Our results showed that all of them can thermodynamically react with CO 2 to form CaCO 3 and iron oxides. Compared to pure CaO capturing CO 2 , CaFe 3 O 4 , CaFe 2 O 4 , and Ca 2 Fe 2 O 5 could shift the CO 2 regeneration temperature to a lower range. The experimental measurements showed that CaFeO 2 is a good CO 2 captor with or without the presence of an O 2 presence. The calculated thermodynamic properties of Ca x Fe y O z capturing the CO 2 reactions can be used to find their operational temperature ranges for different CO 2 capture technologies.
