Rapid prediction of CO2 solubility in aqueous solutions of diethanolamine and methyldiethanolamine
In the present work, a simple-to-use correlation is developed to predict the solubility of CO2 in aqueous solutions of DEA and MDEA as a function of the reduced partial pressure and temperature. Using the interaction parameters generated, the model is applied to correlate the CO2 loading in different amine solutions. The results from the proposed correlation have been compared with the reported experimental data and it was found that there is a good agreement between the observed data and the model predictions over a wide range of operating conditions in aqueous solutions of both diethanolamine (DEA) and methyldiethanolamine (MDEA).
