Absorption of Carbon Dioxide by Monoethanolamine Solutions in Packed Columns

Absorption of Carbon dioxide in Packed Column

The absorption of carbon dioxide into aqueous ammonia solution using packed column was investigated. The volumetric overall mass transfer coefficients (KGav) for CO2 absorption into aqueous ammonia solutions were evaluated over ranges of main operating variables , that is, upto 16kPa partial pressure of CO2, 61-214 m 3 /(m 2 .h) gas flow rate, 0.753.06 m 3 /(m 2 .h) liquid flow rate, 2%16% ammo...

A dynamic model for the de-absorption of carbon dioxide from Monoethanolamine solution

Due to the adverse effect of CO2 from fossil fuel combustion on the earth’s ecosystems, the most cost effective method for CO2 capture is an important area of research. The predominant process for CO2 capture currently employed by industry is chemical absorption in amine solutions. A dynamic model for the deabsorption process was developed with Monoethanolamine solution. Henry’s law was used fo...

Experimental Investigation of Reactive Absorption of Ammonia and Carbon Dioxide by Carbonated Ammonia Solution

In this work, reactive absorption of gases in aqueous electrolyte solutions has been investigated resulting in the development of a procedure in order to calculate the concentrations of ionic and molecular species in the liquid phase. Two duplicate experiments were conducted to investigate simultaneous reactive absorption of ammonia and carbon dioxide in partially carbonated ammonia solutio...

Modelling of a Gas-Absorption Packed Column for Carbon Dioxide-Sodium Hydroxide System

This paper present a research work on the modeling of a gas absorption packed column with the aim formulating a mathematical model and simulation of the model using a computer software to obtain the rate of absorption and the amount of absorbed carbon dioxide CO2 into dilute sodium hydroxide NaOH. Arm field gas absorption column titration techniques were used for the analysis. The total concent...
