Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method by which carbon dioxide can be sufficiently removed from a fluid flow and regeneration of an absorbent can be performed with relatively small energy cost at that time.SOLUTION: The absorbent for removing carbon dioxide from a gaseous flow includes at least one amine and at least one aqueous solution of aminocarboxylic acid and/or aminosulfonic acid. Energy necessary for regeneration of the absorbent can be reduced by using amino carboxylic acid or aminosulfonic acid together with amine.
Abstract:
Agente de absorción para eliminar dióxido de carbono de corrientes de gas, el cual contiene una solución acuosa de una amina de la fórmula I HNR2 (I) en la cual uno o ambos residuos R representan**Fórmula** y el otro residuo R representa hidrógeno.
Abstract:
A process is described for removing carbon dioxide from gas streams in which the partial pressure of the carbon dioxide is less than 200 mbar, in particular flue gases, wherein the gas stream is brought into contact with a liquid absorption medium which comprises an aqueous solution (A) of a tertiary aliphatic alkanolamine and (B) of an activator of the general formula R1-NH-R2-NH2, wherein R1 is C1-C6-alkyl and R2 is C2-C6-alkylene, wherein the sum of the concentrations of A and B is 2.5 to 7 mol/l and the molar ratio of B to A is in the range from 1:3 to 1.5:1. The activator is, for example, 3-methylaminopropylamine, the tertiary aliphatic amine methyldiethanolamine, methyldiisopropanolamine or n-butyldiethanolamine. The process permits a substantial removal of carbon dioxide and regeneration of the absorption medium is possible with a comparatively low energy consumption.
Abstract:
A description is given of an absorption medium for removing carbon dioxide from a gas stream, which comprises an aqueous solution of at least one amine and at least one aminocarboxylic acid and/or aminosulfonic acid. The concomitant use of an aminocarboxylic acid or aminosulfonic acid reduces the energy required for regeneration of the absorption medium.
