Mass Transfer Evaluation of CO2 Absorption in a Wetted Wall Column

Nov 1, 2012

Reynolds A. Frimpong

The chemical absorption of CO 2 in solvents is considered as one of the mature process options for reducing CO 2 emissions in power plants. Solvents with fast mass transfer rates and high CO 2 carrying capacity are therefore desired and continue to be explored to reduce equipment size and its...

Aqueous Morpholine As a Potential Post-Combustion CO2 Absorption Solution

Nov 1, 2012

Krishna Mohan Jinka

Due primarily to high cyclic capacity and high absorption rates compared to other methods, aqueous amine based CO 2 capture has gained great interest for application to post-combustion CO 2 capture. While aqueous amines have a long history for acid gas removal, challenges remain for the commercial...
