Solubility of N2O, equilibrium solubility, mass transfer study and modeling of CO2 absorption into aqueous monoethanolamine (MEA)/1-dimethylamino-2-propanol (1DMA2P) solution for post-combustion CO2 capture
In order to establish an integrative mass transfer coefficient (K G a V ) model for CO 2 absorption into blended monoethanolamine (MEA)/1-dimethylamino-2-propanol (1DMA2P) solution in packed column, the models of CO 2 Henry’s law constants (He CO₂-MEA/1DMA2P ) and the equilibrium CO 2 solubility (α eq ) were constructed. The experimental produced data can be reasonably analyzed. In this work, the Arrhenius equation was employed to fit the values of He CO₂-MEA/1DMA2P at different temperature with AARD of 4.06%; the Kent-Eisenberg prediction model and empirical polynomial prediction model were used to predict the data of α eq under different CO 2 partial pressures and temperatures with AARDs of 2.64% and 0.83%, respectively; the empirical K G a V model proposed by Li, the empirical K G a V model proposed by Aroonwilas and new K G a V model were used to correlate the average values of K G a V with AARDs of 14.36%, 12.44% and 9.03%, respectively; the model for outlet CO 2 concentration (y CO₂,out ) in packed column was developed with AARD of 15.97%. Moreover, the heat of CO 2 absorption in 6 kmol/m 3 MEA/1DMA2P solution was estimated by Gibbs-Helmholtz equation which gave a value of −39.8 kJ/mol. The results show that the blended MEA/1DMA2P solution has advantages that make it a potential absorbent for CO 2 capture.
