  • Patent number: 7767004
    Abstract: The present invention provides a functionalized adsorbent for removal of acid gases, which comprises a pore-expanded mesoporous support having a pore volume of between 0.7 and 3.6 cc/g, a median pore diameter of between 1 and 25 nm, and a BET surface area of between 500 and 1600 m2/g. The support is functionalized by addition of acid-gas reactive functional groups within the pores and external surface of said support material. Also provided are methods of manufacturing the adsorbent and methods of use.

  • Publication number: 20060165574
    Abstract: The present invention provides an amine functionalised adsorbent for use in dry scrubbing process. The adsorbent comprises amine functionalised mesoporous silica in which the amine groups are present at or near the surface of the silica, including within the pore walls and channels of the silica. The present invention further provides methods of preparing the adsorbent and of using the adsorbent for the adsorption of CO2 and/or other acid gases.
