A performance comparison study of five single and sixteen blended amine absorbents for CO2 capture using ceramic hollow fiber membrane contactors

초록

The present study has endeavored to establish the relations between the CO2 absorption properties of five single amine-based absorbents including monoethanolamine (MEA), diethylamine (DEA), N-methyl-diethanolamine (MDEA), 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), and piperazine (PZ), and their sixteen binary mixtures in the blended amine-based absorbents for CO2 chemical absorption using a hydrophobic modified ceramic hollow fiber membrane contactor (HFMC). Keeping all other variables constant, the CO2 absorption properties of single and blended amine-based absorbents for CO2 chemical absorption using hydrophobic modified ceramic HFMCs are highly dependent on their chemical nature and concentration. MEA and DEA have the highest CO2 absorption flux among the single amine solutions. For the CO2 absorption in the blended amine-based absorbents, the replacement of MDEA with 20 wt% DEA increased the CO2 chemical absorption from 1 x 10(4) mol/m(2) s to about 7 x 10(4) mol/m(2) s. Aqueous MDEA blended DEA reaches a percentage of increase of CO2 absorption flux over 500% in comparison with the corresponding aqueous solution of single MDEA.
