the solubility of co2 in the primary, secondary, tertiary and sterically hindered amine aqueous solutions at various conditions was studied. in the present work, the modified kent-eisenberg (m-ke), the extended debye-hückel (e-dh) and the pitzer models were employed to study the solubility of co2 in amine aqueous solutions. two explicit equations are presented to evaluate the concentration of h...

density, viscosity and refractive index of pure, binary and ternary mixtures of diethanolamine (dea) and methyl diethanolamine (mdea) with water have been measured at different temperatures from 288.15 k to 323.15 k at atmospheric pressure. also, this study presents the effects of mixture composition and temperature upon these thermo- physical properties. to measure the density and refractive i...

This paper includes the significant on-site experience of the authors related to problems faced in amine systems with fresh amine and their possible solutions in phases#2&3 of South Pars gas                complex. The amine system was designed as a closed circuit system with the primary objective of removing H2S, CO2, and other acidic components from gaseous hydrocarbon streams. Amine plant op...

Use of amine solutions for the removal of acid gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from natural gas is the most common method, and, in this process, operational problems because of foaming are reported. Foaming can lead to the entrainment of liquid into downstream process equipment and might result in a situation in which the process specification...

The causes and the prevention of carbon steel corrosion in amine systems are reviewed. The corrosive agents are acid gases, oxygen, heat stable salts, amine degradation products, and, in refineries, gas contaminants such as ammonia and hydrogen cyanide. Corrosion mechanisms are provided for carbon steel exposed to amine solutions and for amine regenerator overhead systems containing aqueous con...

Ionic liquids can be used as solvents for gas absorption operations in order to improve the process economy and general efficiency of gas separations. This work investigates solvent properties of ionic liquids and compares them to amine solutions used for absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2). The CO2 solubility into imidazolium-based Room Temperature Ionic Liquids (RTILs) was measured at temperat...

carbon dioxide is a major greenhouse gas that contributes to the global warming by more than %60. absorption has been widely used to treat high concentrations of co2 in synthesis gas production, hydrogen manufacturing, and natural gas processing. the most well established method to capture co2 is its removal by absorption into amine solutions in the presence of activators. in this research, co2...
