Hydrodynamic and absorption studies of carbon dioxide absorption in aqueous amide solutions using a bubble column contactor

Abstract: -The present work analyses the carbon dioxide absorption process in aqueous n-alkylpyrrolidones solutions, from the point of view of hydrodynamic studies as well as mass transfer, using a bubble column contactor. An analysis of the influence of solute concentration and gas flow-rate is complemented by the study of the effect caused by the alkyl group on the hydrodynamics and mass transfer. The presence of this kind of substance produces a decrease in mass transfer rate, but on the basis of interfacial area and… Show more

“…On the other hand, the use of a different physical solvent than water may provide significant benefits over the overall process. In fact, some studies , concluded that N -methyl-2-pyrrolidone (MP) or N -ethyl-2-pyrrolidone (EP) show a suitable behavior in carbon dioxide physical absorption processes. For this reason, the blend of an alkanolamine with EP could be an alternative to capture carbon dioxide.…”

“…The increase in biomass, ethanol, and butanol productions is probably a result of an enhancement in the gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient due to the bioreactor configuration as well as the addition of Tween ® 80 in the culture medium as observed in the serum bottles fermentation. Studies have concluded that low concentrations of surface-active additives can affect gas-liquid mass transfer parameters such as the volumetric mass transfer coefficient (kLa) [42,43]. Belo et al [44] studied the influence of Tween®80 in hydrodynamic parameters and mass transfer of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) in aqueous solution.…”
