摘要

Air pollution with carbonaceous greenhouse gases as CO&CO₂ is strongly impacting the atmospheric environment. Consequently, the capturing process of CO&CO₂ and their conversion reactions into valuable and sustainable products as fuel and other materials are representing a great challenge. Therefore, the current investigation is devoted to develop a novel nanocomposite for adsorptive conversion of CO&CO₂ gases into urea. An innovative nanocomposite was synthesized from the combination of Fullers earth clay (Pal500) with iodine pentoxide (I2O5) and hydrazine hydrate (N2H4) to form Pal500@I2O5/N2H4. The as-prepared nanocomposite was optimized to simultaneously capture CO&CO₂ and convert them into urea by applying a real industrial flue gas sample at 25 °C and high CO&CO₂ pressure. The initial step was related to capture and oxidative conversion of CO into CO2 by the directive adsorptive reaction with the loaded I2O5 onto Pal500@I2O5/N2H4. The second step was focused on the efficient adsorptive binding of CO2 on the surface of this nanocomposite. The third step is based on the instantaneous conversion of CO&CO₂ into urea. The adsorptive binding of CO&CO₂ was 95.43% and this was followed by 88.0% conversion to urea upon application of a lower gas flow rate at 2.0 mL/min.
