With the catalytic induction of EG, anhydrous DMEA shows CO absorption performance via chemical binding and physical storage under normal pressure. Among the absorbents, pure DMEA can hardly absorb CO directly but when the zwitterionic alkylcarbonates are formed between CO and DMEA-EG which can be characterized by C NMR and FTIR, the absorption rate of CO will be improved at this time. An increasing the CO loading as the mass fraction of EG in DMEA-EG, 90wt.% EG captures up to 0.72 mol/mol. The amount of chemically bound and physically stored is directly dependent on temperature, within the range of 293 to 323K, an absorption-regeneration cycle can be formed in a closed vessel because of the zwitterion DMEA-EG-CO is unstable at the higher temperature. In other words, DMEA-EG-CO can be easily regenerated upon appropriate depressurization or heating, corresponding thermodynamic calculations prove that the regenerative energy of DMEA-EG-CO is 25.49kJ/mol.

The solubility and absorption rate of CO2 in monoethanolamine (MEA) promoted N-methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) aqueous solution were measured at normal pressure with temperatures ranging from 303.15-323.15K. The temperature and the mass fraction dependences of the solubility of CO2 and CO2 loading were determined. The influence of the mass fraction of MEA on the absorption rate of CO2 was illustrated.

The solubility and saturated loading of CO2in piperazine (PZ) promoted 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) aqueous solution were measured at normal pressure with temperatures ranging from 293.15K to 323.15K. The temperature and the mass fraction dependences of the solubility and saturated loading of CO2were determined. The influence of the mass fraction of PZ on the absorption rate of CO2was illustrated.

Polymeric membrane is a promising energy effective and an active alternative for conventional CO2 absorption column. The type of absorption liquid and operating parameters plays an efficient role in the ultimate absorption/stripping performance using gas-liquid membrane contactor. The gas flow rate has a significant effect on CO2 absorption performance, by contrast, it has no effect on stripping performance. Further the CO2 absorption performance in membrane contactor could be enhanced by high liquid flow rates. Because the gas–liquid contact time was a key factor to enhance the stripping flux at low temperature while liquid phase boundary layer thickness and associated mass transfer resistance is important at elevated temperature. So by controlling the liquid phase velocity and the length of module at low temperature better stripping performance can be achieved. The effect of liquid temperature on absorption performance in gas-liquid is not straightforward, since the liquid temperature cooperatively influence several factors.

Abstract In this work, a new configuration of the vortex tubes (VTs), called annular VTs, is proposed to improve the temperature separation performance. In the proposed configuration, a compartment has been added on the top of the tube wall that the separated hot outlet is repassed inside it over the hot tube. An axisymmetric swirl model of the Ranque–Hilsch (RH) and annual VTs is numerically simulated, and the thermo-hydraulic characteristics of them are compared for cold mass fractions ranging 0.2–0.8. The results illustrated that a small secondary circulation is created near the cold outlet of the RHVT that is not observed in the annular model. This secondary circulation is a destructive mechanism in VTs that results in more mixing and higher temperature in the cold outlet section. Analyzing the results indicates that using annular VT causes up to 12.51% increment of the hot outlet temperature compared to the RHVT model (which occurs at a mass fraction of 0.23). Also, up to 9.23% reduction of the cold outlet temperature is occurred (which occurs at a mass fraction of 0.37). These explanations prove the improvement of the annular VT compared to that of the conventional VTs.
