Thermogravimetric analysis is used to study the adsorption kinetics, equilibrium, and thermodynamics of CO2 on immobilized polyethylenimine sorbent impregnated on a mesoporous silica over the range of 300–390 K and 5–100% CO2 concentration. Adsorption isotherm models were fitted to the experimental data indicating that a change in adsorption mechanism occurred near 70°C. Below this temperature, the adsorption data followed the heterogeneous isotherms, while data taken at higher-temperatures followed isotherms for homogeneous surfaces. Heat of sorption was estimated to be 130 kJ/mole for the low-temperature regime, but this decreased to 48 kJ/mole above 70°C. The rate of CO2 fractional uptake decreased as temperature increased. A phenomenological kinetic model was derived from the Weibull distribution function using a nucleation growth theory to describe the two-step process. The kinetic model was used to predict the uptake at different operating conditions and resulted in good agreement with experimental data.
