Thermodynamics and equilibrium solubility of carbon dioxide in diglycolamine/morpholine/water
Carbon dioxide solubility was studied in 3.5 m (23.5 wt %) morpholine (MOR), 17.7 in (65 wt %) 2-aminoethoxyethanol (diglycolamine or DGA), and 3.6 in MOR + 14.7 m DGA (I I wt % MOR + 53 wt % DGA). CO2 solubility was determined by dynamic measurements with a wetted wall contactor. Carbamate and bicarbonate concentrations were determined by C-13 NMR in solutions loaded with (CO2)-C-13. The data are represented by the electrolyte NRTL model. At a given CO2 loading (mol/mol amine), the CO2 vapor pressure over 3.5 m MOR is 10 to 1000 times greater than 17.7 in DGA. In 3.6 m MOR + 14.7 m DGA, the CO2 vapor pressure is 5 to 7 times greater than in 17.7 m DGA at high CO2 loading, but the same below 0.2 loading. MOR carbamate is less stable than DGA carbamate by a factor of 7 to 10 from (300 to 333) K. The model predicts that MOR vapor pressure is 100 times greater than DGA over 3.6 m MOR + 14.7 m DGA from (313 to 333) K. The heat Of CO2 absorption in the blend is equivalent to 17.7 in DGA up to 0.35 loading but is 40 % lower at 0.5 loading. The working capacity of the blend is 17 % less than 17.7 m DGA.
