Abstract:The binding states of adsorbed CO 2 species on monoethanolamine (MEA) thin films in a CO 2 and direct air capture cycle at 25 °C have been studied by in situ infrared spectroscopy. CO 2 adsorption produced two types of adsorbed CO 2 : (i) hydrogen-bonded ammonium carbamate, as strongly adsorbed CO 2 , which can only be removed by heating above 25 °C and (ii) carbamic acid, as weakly adsorbed CO 2 , which can be removed at room temperature from the MEA film. The infrared results suggest that carbamic acid is on… Show more
