Changes in Porous Parameters of the Ion Exchanged X Zeolite and Their Effect on CO2 Adsorption.

ABSTRACT: Zeolite 13X (NaX) was modified through ion-exchange with alkali and alkaline earth metal cations. The degree of ion exchange was thoroughly characterized with ICP, EDS and XRF methods. The new method of EDS data evaluation for zeolites was presented. It delivers the same reliable results as more complicated, expensive, time consuming and hazardous ICP approach. The highest adsorption capacities at 273 K and 0.95 bar were achieved for materials containing the alkali metals in the following order K < Na < Li, respectively, 4.54, 5.55 and 5.94 mmol/g. It was found that it is associated with the porous parameters of the ion-exchanged samples. The Li0.61Na0.39X form of zeolite exhibited the highest specific surface area of 624 m2/g and micropore volume of 0.35 cm3/g compared to sodium form 569
