Phase Equilibrium Study of the AlCl3–CaCl2–H2O System for the Production of Aluminum Chloride Hexahydrate from Ca-Rich Flue Ash
, Journal of Chemical and Engineering Data, Vol: 61, Pages: 359-369, ISSN: 1520-5134The study of the solid–liquid phase equilibrium for the AlCl3–CaCl2–H2O system is of significance to separate aluminum chloride hexahydrate from the leachate obtained by the reaction of Ca-rich fly ash and a waste hydrochloride from chemical plant. The phase equilibrium data for the binary AlCl3–H2O system and the ternary AlCl3–CaCl2–H2O system over the temperature range from 278.15 K to 363.15 K were measured. A rigorous and thermodynamically consistent model representing the AlCl3–CaCl2–H2O system developed on the basis of the Pitzer’s activity coefficient model embedded in the Aspen Plus. On the basis of this, the phase behavior of the ternary AlCl3–CaCl2–H2O system at different temperatures was visualized with lucidity on an equilateral triangle. The phase-equilibrium diagram generated by modeling was illustrated to identify the course of crystallization to recover AlCl3·6H2O from the solutions containing calcium chloride. All of these will provide a thermodynamic basis for the separation of aluminum chloride from calcium chloride solutions.

Carbon negative production of hydrogen from biomass using an alkaline thermal treatment: Kinetic and mechanistic studies for the investigation of the reaction pathways
Using biomass as a feedstock in place of fossil fuels for the production of energy and fuels can represent a sustainable alternative since this energy source is renewable, carbon neutral, and globally distributed. In this study, the one-step H2 production from biomass using an alkaline hydroxide (i.e., NaOH) under mild reaction conditions (i.e., 373 - 573 K, 1 bar) was investigated using a model biomass system. This method has great potential since it enables the production of a high-purity H2 stream with increased yield. Moreover, it is carbon negative since the carbon in the biomass is converted to a solid, environmentally benign carbonate. Owing to the suppressed CO formation in this process, the produced gas can be directly used in subsequent energy conversion systems such as PEM fuel cells without additional gas cleanup steps. The formation of gaseous products (i.e., H2, CH4, CO and CO2) during the reaction was monitored using gas chromatography, and the characterization of the derived solid products was carried out using 13C NMR and Raman spectroscopies, while investigating the effect of the reaction conditions (i.e., final reaction temperature, reactants ratio). The findings of this study provided important information regarding the mechanistic pathways of the alkaline thermal treatment of biomass for sustainable energy conversion.

Novel liquid-like nanoscale organic hybrid materials for CO2 capture
New solvents referred to as Nanoparticle Organic Hybrid Materials (NOHMs) are being developed for various energy and environmental applications, with a particular focus on CO2 capture. These nanoscale hybrid materials consist of an inorganic nanocore functionalized with a polymeric canopy, which acts as the solvating medium. Compared to the conventional amine-based solvents, NOHMs exhibit valuable properties such as negligible vapor pressure and high thermal stability. CO2 capture by NOHMs is expected to arise from two properties: the tunable chemistry of the canopy via selection of task-specific functional groups, as well as the specific structural arrangement of the polymer chains, favored by decreases in entropy. In this study, different NOHMs were synthesized and they were characterized using thermogravimetric analysis, spectroscopic tools (i.e., NMR, Raman, ATR FT-IR), and viscosity measurement techniques. The CO2 capture and CO2-induced swelling behaviors of NOHMs were evaluated and the mechanisms of CO2 absorption were investigated. The effects of the canopy structure (e.g., grafting density, polymer geometry), the canopy functionalization (e.g., presence of amine groups), and the presence of other flue gas components (e.g., N2, SO2, H2O) on the overall CO2 capture process were studied.
