Overview

Experimental study demonstrates enhanced CO2 absorption and reduced absorber height using a novel tri-solvent amine blend, indicating strong potential for post-combustion carbon capture.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the initial CO2 absorption efficiency, mass transfer kinetics, and thermodynamic properties of a novel aqueous AMP–DA2MP–MEA tri-solvent amine blend for post-combustion carbon capture.
  • Tested aqueous AMP–DA2MP–MEA tri-solvent blends in a bench-scale absorption column process plant at a total amine concentration of 6 mol·L−1.
  • Maintained AMP concentration at 2 mol·L−1 while varying DA2MP from 1 to 2 mol·L−1 and MEA from 2 to 3 mol·L−1, comparing performance against benchmark MEA and other amine blends.
  • The AMP–DA2MP–MEA blend reduced the required absorber column height for 90% initial CO2 absorption efficiency by 18% to 58% overall, and by 41% to 58% relative to benchmark MEA.
  • Initial mass transfer coefficients increased by 65.9% to 118.9% over benchmark MEA, 6.6% to 40.6% over AMP–DA2MP, and 44.8% to 91.0% over AMP–PZ–MEA.
  • The tri-solvent blend exhibited lower density, higher viscosity, up to 9.8% higher heat of vaporization, and up to 28.8% higher absorption heat compared to baseline amine systems.
