Abstract

The chemical absorption method utilizing alcohol-amine solutions has found widespread application in flue gas CO2 capture and recovery in power plants. However, the performance of the absorbent and energy consumption are pivotal factors that have hindered its large-scale implementation in power plants. To facilitate the broader adoption of the chemical absorption method using alcohol-amine solutions in flue gas CO2 capture, we conducted a comprehensive investigation into the absorbent’s performance through experimental methods. In this study, a typical MEA solution was chosen as the focus, and an indoor experimental setup was established to systematically examine the absorption and desorption performance of the MEA solution under various concentration and temperature conditions. Special attention was given to assessing energy consumption during the desorption process. The experimental findings revealed distinct performance characteristics of the MEA solutions under different operating conditions, providing essential data for the further optimization of absorbers. These experimental results are anticipated to offer robust support for enhancing the efficiency of the chemical absorption method using alcohol-amine solutions for CO2 capture from flue gas in power plants. The goal is to encourage its widespread application in industrial practices.
