A headspace gas chromatography technique was applied to determine the solubility of carbon dioxide in
aqueous solutions of 2,2‘-methyliminodiethanol (N-methyldiethanolamine, MDEA) at low gas loadings (at
stoichiometric molar ratios of carbon dioxide to MDEA between about 0.003 and 0.8). A temperature range
T ≈ 313−393 K was covered. The stoichiometric molality of MDEA in water amounted to about 2, 4, and
8 mol/(kg of water) (mass fraction of MDEA ≈ 0.192, 0.323, and 0.488). The partial pressure of carbon
dioxide was between about 0.1 and 70 kPa. A thermodynamic model for describing the vapor−liquid
equilibrium (which applies Pitzer's molality-scale-based equation for describing the Gibbs excess energy of
the aqueous phase) is revised and extended using the new data.
The solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous solutions of piperazine was determined at low gas loadings (stoichiometric molar ratios of carbon dioxide to piperazine between about 0.05 and 0.95) and temperatures between (313 and 393) K by means of headspace gas chromatography. The stoichiometric molality of piperazine amounted to about (1 and 2) mol‚(kg of water) -1 {mass fraction of piperazine ≈ (8 and 15) %} at T ≈ 313 K and to about (2 and 4) mol‚(kg of water) -1 {mass fraction of piperazine ≈ (15 and 26) % } at T ≈ (353 and 393) K. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide was between about (0.1 and 95) kPa. A thermodynamic model for describing the vapor-liquid equilibrium (which applies Pitzer's molality scale based equation for describing the Gibbs excess energy of the aqueous phase) is revised and extended using the new data.
A synthetic technique was used to measure the solubility of carbon dioxide in three aqueous solutions of 2,2′-methyliminodiethanol (N-methyldiethanolamine, MDEA) and piperazine (PZ) at around (313, 333, 353, and 393) K and pressures between about (0.2 and 10) MPa. The molalities of (MDEA + PZ) in the aqueous solutions were (2.2 + 1.97), (4.22 + 2.01), and (7.83 + 2.07), respectively. The loading of the amines by carbon dioxide (i.e., the molar ratio of (MDEA + PZ) and CO2 varied between 0.2 and 2.0 The new experimental results are to supplement previously published experimental data of our research group for a single solution of both amines {molalities of (MDEA + PZ) in the aqueous solutions: (2.0 + 2.0)}. The new experimental results are compared to predictions from a model that combines previously published models for (CO2 + MDEA + H2O) and (CO2 + PZ + H2O).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
