摘要
A thermodynamic model for monoethanolamine (MEA)-H2O-CO2 was built using the electrolyte non-random two-liquid model. Over twenty parameters were regressed from the vapor pressure and heat capacity data for MEA, data of vapor-liquid equilibrium, heat capacity and heat of mixing for MEA-H2O, and CO2 solubility data for MEA-H2O-CO2 over a wide range of temperature, concentration and CO2 loading. The model was validated by the NMR speciation data and then used to build a process simulation for CO2 absorption/desorption into 30%(mass) MEA. The simulation results match the pilot plant data in literature. For 30%(mass) MEA solution, when the CO2 removal rate in the absorber is 90%, the reboiler heat duty is the minimum by changing the mass flow ratio of liquid to gas in the absorber. The minimum reboiler heat duty is 3.64 GJ·(t CO2)-1, when the ratio is 2. © All Rights Reserved.
