Abstract:
An absorbent composition that is useful in the selective removal of hydrogen sulfide relative to carbon dioxide from gaseous mixtures that comprise both hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide and the use thereof. The absorbent composition includes an amine mixture of an amination reaction product of tert-butylamine with a polydispersed polyethylene glycol (PEG) mixture having an average molecular weight within a certain specified range of molecular weights. The amination reaction product may also comprise a first sterically hindered amine and a second sterically hindered amine. The absorbent composition, preferably, includes an organic co-solvent, such as a sulfone compound. A method is also provided for improving the operation of certain gas absorption processes by utilizing the absorbent composition.
Abstract:
An absorbent composition that is useful in the selective removal of hydrogen sulfide relative to carbon dioxide from gaseous mixtures that comprise both hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide and the use thereof. The absorbent composition includes an aqueous solvent that comprises an amine mixture, comprising an amination reaction product of tert-butylamine and a polydispersed polyethylene glycol mixture, and water with a concentration of an added strong acid to inhibit phase separation of the aqueous solvent. The operation of certain gas absorption processes can be improved by the use of the absorbent composition.

Abstract:
A high temperature selective absorption process for treating a gas stream having concentrations of both hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide to yield a treated gas stream having a reduced hydrogen sulfide concentration. The high temperature selective absorption process uniquely utilizes a novel absorbent composition which enables the processing of the gas stream under difficult absorption conditions and provides for other features of the inventive absorption process.
