Removing indoor CO2 as a pollutant via solid sorbents is a promising solution to maintaining acceptable indoor air quality while minimizing the energy consumption of ventilation. Compared to fixed-bed and fluidized-bed configurations, which require at least two beds to allow for continuous operation, a rotary adsorber is more compact and suitable to be integrated into the ventilation systems of buildings. In the present study, a regenerative rotary adsorber based on temperature swing adsorption was modeled to investigate continuous CO2 capture in an indoor environment. The governing equations of heat and mass transfer processes associated with the capture were established and coded in ANSYS Fluent software. The spatiotemporal variations of CO2 concentration and temperature in gas and solid phases within the rotary adsorber were obtained. The key findings are: (1) adjusting the speed mainly affects circumferential concentration and temperature distribution, but has little impact on axial concentration and temperature; (2) Increasing desorption inlet flow rate has little impact on adsorption outlet concentration, but significantly decreases desorption outlet concentration; (3) Raising desorption inlet temperature can increase both adsorption and desorption outlet average concentrations; (4) Reducing the volume proportion of the desorption sector will slightly increase adsorption outlet concentration and slightly decrease desorption outlet concentration, but barely affects average adsorption and desorption outlet temperatures. |
