| Sumario: | [EN] Zeolites synthesized from fly ash by Hydrothermal Activation and Microwave Assistance were studied to evaluate their utilization as sorbents of pollutant gases like CO2, SO2, NH3. Fly ash have a high alumino-silicate content in its composition that makes it a good starting material to synthesize zeolites, getting efficiencies about 75%. Zeolites obtained by Hydrothermal Activation and Microwave Assistance were very similar. Depending on the synthesis parameters - reaction time, temperature and activation solution concentration- the following zeolites were obtained: Analcime, Sodalite, F-Linde, NaPl-zeolite and Chabazite. Synthesis yields and zeolite types obtained from the microwave and conventional experiments were very similar, but the activation time needed was drastically reduced by using microwaves (from 24-48 h to 10-30 min). The zeolitic material was previously activated at 473 K to remove the hydratation water and facilitate the gas adsorption. The adsorption experiments were performed at atmospheric pressure by flowing a mixture of every gas in He through the sample. The adsorption temperatures were 195 K (CO2), 263 K (SO2) and 250 K (NH3). The desorption experiments were made at room temperature. Finally, the effect of the substitution of Na+ by NH4+ in the NaPl-zeolite in the adsorption capacity was studied. The adsorption capacities obtained for all the samples were low. Only external surface of the zeolites was reached in the working conditions. In general, samples synthesized by microwave assistance showed more adsorption capacity than those synthesized by conventional methods. |
