Abstract

Absorption rate of carbon dioxide was measured in the aqueous xanthan gum (XG) solution in the range of 0~0.15 wt% containing diisopropanolamine (DIPA) of $0{\sim}2\;kmol/m^3$ in a flat-stirred vessel with an impeller of 0.05 m and agitation speed of 50 rpm at $25^{\circ}C$ and 101.3 kPa. The volumetric liquid-side mass transfer coefficient ($k_La$) of $CO_2$, which was obtained by the measured physical absorption rate, was correlated with the viscosity and the elastic behavior of XG solution such as Deborah number as an empirical formula. The chemical absorption rate of $CO_2$ ($R_A$), which was estimated by the film theory using the measured $k_La$ and the known kinetics of reaction between $CO_2$ and DIPA, was compared with the measured rate. The aqueous XG solution with elastic property of non-Newtonian liquid made $k_La$ and $R_A$ increased compared with Newtonian liquid based on the same viscosity of the solution.
