In order to separate the fuel-grade DME from the product of a direct DME synthesise reaction, containing 19~20% of DME, an absorption column and a purification column were employed. In the DME absorption column, the flow rate of the methanol required to recover more than 99% of DME at 50 bar was estimated by the correlation obtained from the lab-scale experiments. In the DME purification column, the maximum DME recovery of 98.2% could be obtained even from the side stream at the 3rd stage above the feed stage, since the feed stream originated from the product of the absorption column had already contained a large amount of DME (20~30 mol%) and only a small amount of light products such as $CO_2$ and $N_2$ (5~10 mol%).

for the removal of carbon dioxide in flue gas, which is the main cause of the global warming, chemical absorption methods were widely used for years. Alkanolamines such as MEA, AMP, MDEA are mainly used as an absorbent. In this study, cyclic amines - Piperazine, Piperidine and Cyclohelylamine are investigated to compare the chemical solubilities, absorption capacities and rate ot reaction. In conclusion, Piperazine is the most effective absorbent of $CO_2$ and ran be the excellent alternative to the former absorbents. Experiments were performed at 5, 10, 15 weight percent, 30, 40, $50^{\circ}C$, and the gas solubilities are determined by back-titration method, and using Gas Chromatography the absorption rate was compared.

최근 문제시 되고있는 지구온난화 현상은 태양으로부터 발산된 태양파 중 지구 표면에 흡수되지 않은 일부 반사 에너지파와 지구표면 자체에서 발산하는 에너지파가 온난화가스들에 의하여 대기권 밖으로 발산되지 못하고 흡수되어 대기의 온도를 상승시키는 것에 기인한다. 이산화탄소는 이와같은 지구온난화 현상에 절반 이상의 영향을 미치고 있으며, 날로 증가하는 에너지 소모량에 의하여 대기중 이산화탄소의 농도가 계속 증가하고 있다. 따라서, 1988년 토론토 회의 이후, 각종 국제회의에서 이산화탄소 배출 규제문제가 논의되고 있으며, 연소 배 가스로부터 이산화탄소를 제거하는 기술에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 각종 지구온난화 가스의 분리 회수기술로는 흡수법, 흡착법, 막분리법, 산소연소법 등이 개발되어 있으나, 이산화탄소의 경우 상용화 되어있는 분리기술은 흡수법으로서, 알카놀아민을 이용한 화학흡수법이 가장 널리 사용되고 있다.(중략)

This paper investigates the effect of coal-fired fly ash on dry $CO_2$ sorbents as the supports and additives. For this purpose, various kinds of dry sorbent were manufactured by mixing fly-ash, the primary $CO_2$ absorption components (NaOH and CaO) and water with their different combination. Thereafter, their $CO_2$ absorption performance and the property were analyzed. As a result, variation of absorption efficiency and temperature as well as $CO_2$ desorption of the sorbents are confirmed, which may be primarily ascribed to fly-ash addition to the sorbents. Particularly, fly-ash effect is strongly measured in the sorbent manufactured by mixing all four components (named WNCF sorbents). Absorption efficiency of WNCF sorbents at $550^{\circ}C$ is 35.6% higher than that of flyash free sorbent and desorption is solely observed in WNCF sorbents. Fly-ash in WNCF sorbents leads to increase the dispersity of $CO_2$ absorption components and decrease their particle size in the sorbents. In addition, fly-ash is used as the supports and pozzolanic reaction is hindered by NaOH in WNCF sorbent. Furthermore, $CO_2$ desorption from the sorbents may be due to fly-ash. The interaction between fly-ash and $CO_2$ absorption components substantially attenuate the strength between captured $CO_2$ in CaO and NaOH.

Climate changes including environmental disasters after reckless industrialization have been globally witnessed. Considerable attention on the imminent need for developing CCS(Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage) methodologies to minimize the emission thus has been given. Chemical absorption is particularly regarded important because of its commercial availability and applicability to large scale plants. This paper addresses recent trends of chemical absorption technologies and the need for the further research on the topic from the perspective of process systems engineering(PSE).

$Mg(OH)_2$ slurry was prepared by using natural mineral brucite mined in Liaoning province in China, and its de-$SO_x$ efficiency was compared with that of $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry prepared by thermal decomposition and hydration of magnesite. The physical and chemical characteristics of $Mg(OH)_2$ Powders prepared from brucite and magnesite were similar. However, the layered plate structure of $Mg(OH)_2$ crystal particles prepared from brucite had grown more stably. The desulfurization efficiency of $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry prepared from brucite was slightly higher than that of magnesite. Brucite may be used as a new absorbent for the desulfurization of flue gas in the future.

This research is performed to compare lignin compounds isolated in Pinus koraiensis Sieb et Zucco, with those compounds which have been already isolated. and to elucidate IR spectra of functional groups and aromatic nucleus for chemical structure of lignin. In vanillin and dehydrodivanillin having carbonyl group ill ${\alpha}$-position. characteristic absorption band of carbonyl group was confirmed in 1665 $cm^{-1}$. Absorption band of vanillic and syringic acid with carboxyl group were indicated in 1675 and 1690 $cm^{-1}$ respectively. Syringic acid showed low wave number because this was affected by methoxyl group. Characteristic absorption bands of guaiacyl, syringly and guaiacyl-syringyl co-polymer nucleus were clearly disclosed in diarylpropane compounds. It were reconfirmed that absorption band of guaiacyl showed longer wave number than of syringly nucleus.

The reversible chemical absorption using MEA (monoethanolamine), one of alkanolamine, is generally used as a conventionally method for $CO_{2}$ capture. Even MEA absorbent has excellent reactivity with $CO_{2}$, it has been known to have the decrease of absorption capacity caused by $CO_{2}$, $O_{2}$ or other acid gases in flue gas, corrosion and thermal degradation. In this study, MEA solutions degraded in the steam reforming process of refinery used and the absorption performance were compared for the used of conventional MEA solution. In case of 30 wt% MEA and mixture of 20 wt% thermal degraded absorbent (DP) and 10 wt% PZ, the absorption capacities were $0.5365mol-CO_{2}$/mol-absorbent and $0.5939mol-CO_{2}$/mol-absorbent respectively. PZ added thermally degraded absorbent showed the enhanced absorption capacity. On the contrary, the absorption rates were $1.1610kg_{f}/cm^2{\cdot}min$ for 30 wt% MEA, $0.5310kg_{f}/cm^2{\cdot}min$ for mixture of 20 wt% thermal degraded absorbent (DP) and 10 wt% PZ and $0.3525kg_{f}/cm^2{\cdot}min$ for 30 wt% thermally degraded absorbent only. The absorption rates of PZ added thermally degraded absorbent was higher than that of thermally degraded absorbent only. Therefore, it can be confirmed that thermally degraded absorbent can be reused as an absorbent for $CO_{2}$ by the addition of suitable additives.
