The chemical, structural, and morphological changes of the aminated adsorbents were evaluated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The amination yield with TMA was 40 higher than EDA. However, the obtained adsorbent showed two times lower CO2 adsorption capacity (at 30 bars) than the adsorbent with EDA and stood at 0.6 mmol g-1 compared to 1.2 mmol g-1. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2019. %Z cited By 4; Conference of 7th Conference on Emerging Energy and Process Technology, CONCEPT 2018 ; Conference Date: 27 November 2018 Through 28 November 2018; Conference Code:146656
