Integrated CO2 capture and dynamic catalysis for CO2 recycling in a microbrewery
In this study, we used fermentation off-gases from a brewery for integrated CO2 capture and utilisation in order to produce CH4 with a dual-function material (DFM) containing NiRu as catalyst and dispersed CaO as adsorbent. CH4 was produced from captured CO2 via 2 pathways (fast and slow), proceedin...

| Sumario: | In this study, we used fermentation off-gases from a brewery for integrated CO2 capture and utilisation in order to produce CH4 with a dual-function material (DFM) containing NiRu as catalyst and dispersed CaO as adsorbent. CH4 was produced from captured CO2 via 2 pathways (fast and slow), proceeding through formyl intermediates according to the operando DRIFTS-MS results. The NiRuCa DFM showed a stable CH4 capacity over 8 cycles (105 μmol/gDFM) with fermentation off-gases being used as a CO2 capture feed. H2O and O2, which were present in small amounts in the emissions feed, resulted in the passivation of Ni in the form of a NiO layer and hence, the DFM did not undergo excessive oxidation and deactivation. This work constitutes a first in terms of validating the use of DFMs with real industrial emissions, and it directly correlates the DFM activity performance with its reaction mechanism and intermediate species. |
