A novel lithium orthosilicate based adsorbent doping with halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) was synthesized with Kaolin clay and SiO2 by an impregnation-precipitation method. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm analysis and thermo-gravimetry, respectively. The results indicate that the reactivity of Li4SiO4 for CO2 absorption can be enhanced by doping alumina. Different alu-minum sources result in different degrees of the CO2 adsorption performance. It is also found that the CO2 capture amount of the adsorbent doping with Halloysite nanotubes is 15.25wt.% at 560℃, which is better than that of the ad-sorbent doping withγ-Al2O3(i.e., 10.88wt.%).
