Title: Highly porous CO₂ hydrate generation aided by silica nanoparticles for potential secure storage of CO₂ and desalination

Abstract

Here in this paper, we report a new way of storing CO₂ in a highly porous hydrate structure, stabilized by silica nanoparticles (NPs). Such a porous CO₂ hydrate structure was generated either by cooling down NP-stabilized CO₂-in-seawater foams, or by gently mixing CO₂ and seawater that contains silica NPs under CO₂ hydrate-generating conditions. With the highly porous structure, enhanced desalination was also achievable when the partial meltdown of CO₂ hydrate was allowed.

Efficient Solar‐Thermal Distillation Desalination Device by Light Absorptive Carbon Composite Porous Foam

Journal Article Jang, Gyoung Gug ; Klett, James William ; McFarlane, Joanna ; ... - Global Challenges

Solar–thermal driven desalination based on porous carbon materials has promise for fresh water production. Exploration of high–efficiency solar desalination devices has not solved issues for practical application, namely complicated fabrication, cost–effectiveness, and scalability. Here, direct solar–thermal carbon distillation (DS–CD) tubular devices are introduced that have a facile fabrication process, are scalable, and use an inexpensive but efficient microporous graphite foam coated with carbon nanoparticle and superhydrophobic materials. The “black” composite foam serving as a solar light absorber heats up salt water effectively to produce fresh water vapor, and the superhydrophobic surface of the foam traps the liquid feed in themore »« less

Advances are reported in several aspects of clathrate hydrate desalination fundamentals necessary to develop an economical means to produce municipal quantities of potable water from seawater or brackish feedstock. These aspects include the following, (1) advances in defining the most promising systems design based on new types of hydrate guest molecules, (2) selection of optimal multi-phase reactors and separation arrangements, and, (3) applicability of an inert heat exchange fluid to moderate hydrate growth, control the morphology of the solid hydrate material formed, and facilitate separation of hydrate solids from concentrated brine.

Advantages and disadvantages of hydrate formation in ocean deposition of CO{sub 2}

Journal Article Lund, P C - World Resource Review

Anthropogenic activity since the industrial revolution has led to an increase of the atmospheric concentration of CO{sub 2}. To reduce the large amount of CO{sub 2} emitted to the atmosphere, a substantial research activity focusing on concepts for CO{sub 2} removal and depositions is being done. The work described in this paper is focusing on ocean deposition concepts. CO{sub 2}-hydrate is thermodynamically stable and expected to form naturally at depths larger than about 450 meters provided a source of high concentration CO{sub 2} is available. Hydrate formation is expected to have influence on most ocean CO{sub 2} deposition concepts proposed.more »« less
Physical property measurements on CO{sub 2} clathrate hydrates. Review of crystallography, hydration number, and mechanical properties

Journal Article Uchida, Tsutomu - Waste Management

Experimental studies on the physical properties of CO{sub 2} clathrate hydrate are summarized. They are useful for the feasibility study of CO{sub 2} sequestration into deep seawater. Crystallographic structure analyses and CO{sub 2} molecule contents in clathrate cages are necessary to estimate the density of CO{sub 2} clathrate hydrates. Mechanical properties of the CO{sub 2} hydrate film formed at the boundary between liquid CO{sub 2} and water are also important for study of CO{sub 2} deposition on the deep sea floor. In order to show the recent activities in this field and to clarify the remaining problems, this review alsomore »« less

Seawater Desalination Derived Entirely from Ocean Biomass

Journal Article Liu, Xiaojie ; Tian, Yanpei ; Wu, Yanzi ; ... - Journal of Materials Chemistry A

Solar-driven interfacial evaporation shows great prospects for seawater desalination with its rapid fast evaporation rate and high photothermal conversion efficiency. Here, a sustainable, biodegradable, non-toxic, and highly efficient full ocean biomass-based solar-driven evaporator is reported, which is composed of chitosan (CS) hydrogel as the hydratable skeleton and cuttlefish ink (CI) as the photothermal material. Under solar irradiation, the cuttlefish ink powder harvests solar energy and heats the surrounding water. Simultaneously, the water in the three-dimensional network of chitosan hydrogel is rapidly replenished by the interconnected porous structure and the hydrophilic functional groups attached to the polymer chains. With its enlargedmore »« less
