Highly effective and durable CO2 sorbents were synthesized with different calcium and support precursors using a spray-drying technique. It was found that spray-drying could be a useful technique for producing sorbents with enhanced cyclic performance, especially when d-gluconic acids of calcium and magnesium were used. Seven sorbents were synthesized with five calcium precursors and three inert solid precursors, and the sorbent made from calcium d-gluconte monohydrate and magnesium d-gluconate hydrate with 75 wt % CaO content achieved a high CO2 sorption capacity of 0.46 g of CO2/g of calcined sorbent at the 44th cycle of carbonation and calcination.
