硅量子点CO2微气泡破裂再生演化机制微尺度实验研究

Microscale Experimental Study on the Mechanism of CO2 Microbubble Rupture and Regeneration in Silicon Quantum Dots

  • 摘要: 为满足碳捕集、利用与封存(CCUS)中CO2地质封存技术需求,构筑了基于硅量子点(SiQDs)强化泡沫体系,采用T型微通道结合高速摄像技术,追踪不同工况下CO2微气泡的演化过程,探究硅量子点对CO2微气泡动态行为的界面调控机制。研究表明:流动参数对气泡动力学行为具有显著影响:当连续相流速(0.05~2.00 mL/min)增加,CO2微气泡长度逐渐减小,剪切力逐渐增大取代界面张力成为气泡尺寸调控的主导因素;适量SiQDs(0.05%)可以吸附至气泡界面,提升流体的黏弹性,可有效抑制CO2微气泡聚并与破裂,显著增强泡沫稳定性;在流体剪切力与SiQDs界面吸附的协同作用下,微气泡生成频率较纯表面活性剂泡沫体系提升20%~30%、颈部宽度变化速率提升5%~10%。将零维纳米材料SiQDs引入CO2泡沫强化体系,成功制备出高稳定性且尺寸较小的CO2微气泡,为硅量子点在CO2地质封存技术中的应用提供了理论基础与实践依据。

     

    Abstract: In order to meet the needs of CO2 geological storage technology in carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), it constructs a reinforced foam system based on silicon quantum dots (SiQDs), and uses T-shaped microfluidic channels combined with high-speed camera technology to investigate the evolution of CO2 microbubbles under different operating conditions, and explores the interface regulation mechanism of SiQDs on the dynamic behavior of CO2 microbubbles. The results show that the flow parameters have a significant effect on the bubble dynamics: when the continuous phase flow velocity (0.05~2.00 mL/min) increases, the length of the CO2 microbubble decreases, and the shear force gradually increases, replacing the interfacial tension as the dominant factor in the regulation of bubble size. An appropriate amount of SiQDs (0.05%) can be adsorbed to the bubble interface, improve the interfacial viscoelasticity, effectively inhibit the coalescence and rupture of CO2 microbubbles, and enhance the stability of the foam. Under the synergistic effect of fluid shear force and SiQDs interfacial adsorption, the frequency of microbubble formation is increased by 20%~30% and the neck width change rate is increased by 5%~10% compared with that of pure surfactant foam system. Zero-dimensional SiQDs were introduced into the CO2 foam strengthening system, and the CO2 microbubbles with high stability and small size were successfully realized, which provided a theoretical and practical basis for the application of SiQDs in CO2 geological storage technology.
