co2 emissions from combustion flue gases have turned into a major factor in global warming. post-combustion carbon capture (pcc) from industrial utility flue gases by reactive absorption can substantially reduce the emissions of the greenhouse gas co2. to test a new solvent (ait600) for this purpose, a small pilot plant was used. this paper presents the results of studies on chemical methods of...

in order to increase the rate of gas absorption, chemical reaction in the liquid phase is considered. the purpose of this paper was to simulate gas absorption process by a liquid film over a spherical packing incorporating eddy viscosity and diffusivity. second order chemical reaction for two different cases (fast and slow) were considered. the system partial differential equations obtained was...

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...

At the present theoretical study, DFT calculations were performed for elucidating thereaction, absorption energy and the quantum molecular descriptors including electronic chemical potential, chemical hardness, Homo, Lumo, band gap energy (Eg) and finding the most active nitrogen-doped graphene sheet (N-G) for absorption H2S, CH4, N2 and CO2 gases. Finally it found that nitrogen-doped gra...

This work focused on the CO2 capture by absorption into amines based absorbents. Aqueous mixtures containing different types of amines (MEA, MDEA, AMP, PZ and PZEA) are experimentally compared in a special gas-liquid contactor (a cables-bundle contactor) with respect to the CO2 removal performances at 25°C and atmospheric pressure. This absorption process was also simulated with the use of publ...

The use of ammonia (NH3) rich wastewaters as an ecological chemical absorption solvent for the selective extraction of carbon dioxide (CO2) during biogas upgrading to 'biomethane' has been studied. Aqueous ammonia absorbents of up to 10,000 gNH3 m(-3) demonstrated CO2 absorption rates higher than recorded in the literature for packed columns using 20,000-80,000 g NH3 m(-3) which can be ascribed...

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged as promising alternative candidates for CO2 capture in recent years. In this work, several novel DESs were firstly prepared to enhance CO2 absorption. Structural and physical properties of DESs were investigated, as well as their absorption performance of CO2. A distinct depression in the melting point up to 80 K of DESs was observed compared with that...

A reaction calorimeter was used to study the rate and heat effects during CO2 absorption into aqueous solutions of N-methyldiethanolamine (MDEA). The experiments were carried out at constant pressure of 0.1 MPa and 0.3 MPa over a range of temperature from 293 K to 333 K. The amine content changed from 10 to 30 mass %. The experimental equipment and procedure were described with the emphasis on ...
