Ionic liquids (ILs) grafting in inorganic solids sorbents is a promising alternative to replace the usual separation process of carbon dioxide from natural gas currently performed using amines. ILs presents unique properties such as, low environmental impact, non-corrosion and process efficiency. The ILs 1,3-bis(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)imidazolium chloride and 1-methyl-3-(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)imidazolium chloride were immobilized in MCM-41 and MCMRH silica. The MCMRH was synthesized from rice husk. ILs chemical immobilization was carried out by grafting method, where covalent bonds are formed between silane and hydroxyl groups present in the support. Syntheses were carried out in toluene under nitrogen atmosphere to prevent the hydrolysis and condensation of methoxy groups in the silane structure. CO2 sorption capacity and selectivity for CO2/CH4 were evaluated after synthesis. ILs in concentrations of 10 and 20% were tested. The samples characterization by XPS, NMR, FTIR and TGA confirmed the formation of the proposed IL structures. Sorption and selectivity results showed that the immobilization reduces the CO2sorption capacity, however the selectivity of the materials was higher in relation to the pristine silica. Supports immobilized with ILs 1-methyl-3- (3-trimethoxysilylpropyl) imidazole chloride presented better performance. The observed selectivity increase was 25% when 10% of IL was supported on MCMRH silica.
