Abstract
In this paper, absorption and reaction characteristics of low $CO_2$ and alkanolamines were investigated. As MEA concentrations increase 1, 2 and 3 wt%, $CO_2$ loadings decrease 0.34 mol-$CO_2/mol$-absorbent, 0.32 mol-$CO_2/mol$-absorbent and 0.3 mol-$CO_2/mol$-absorbent, respectively. Also, $CO_2$ loadings decrease from 0.32 mol-$CO_2/mol$-absorbent, 0.30 mol-$CO_2/mol$-absorbent and 0.28 mol-$CO_2/mol$-absorbent as AMP concentrations increase 1, 2 and 3 wt%. Experimental results with blending solutions show that $CO_2$ loading was the highest, 0.52 mol-$CO_2/mol$-absorbent, when 0.5 wt% MEA and 0.5 wt% AMP were blended.
