An aqueous CO2 absorbent comprising a combination of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and 3-aminopropanol (AP), or AMP and 4-aminobutanol (AB), is described. A method for capturing CO2 from a CO2 containing gas using the mentioned absorbent, and the use of a combination of AMP and AP, or a combination of AMP and AB are also described.

Aqueous CO2 absorbent comprising 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol and 3-aminopropanol

A method with corresponding systems for reducing emission of amines to the atmosphere. The method includes a a) introducing a gas containing COinto an absorber; b) flowing the flue gas through an absorber having an absorbent with a water-lean solution having less than 50% water and one or more amines, with the absorbent capturing the COand forming a reduced COcontent gas having a baseline COcontent; and c) washing the reduced COcontent gas in a wash column with a wash solution comprising carbonic acid formed by addition of gaseous COinto the wash solution. In this method, the washing removes the amines from the reduced COcontent gas and produces a reduced amine content gas exiting from the wash column.

Methods and systems for emissions control in solvent-based CO2 capture processes using CO2

The present invention relates to a method for capturing COfrom exhaust gas in an absorber (A), wherein the COcontaining gas is passed through an aqueous absorbent slurry wherein said aqueous absorbent slurry comprises an inorganic alkali carbonate, bicarbonate and at least one of an absorption promoter and a catalyst, and wherein the COis converted to solids by precipitation in the absorber, said slurry having the precipitated solids is conveyed to a separating device (F), in which the solids are separated off, essentially all of at least one of the absorption promoter and catalyst is recycled together with the remaining aqueous phase to the absorber.

The invention relates to a new method for removing and recovering of acid gases from a gaseous mixture in an absorption plant by adding an organic acid to a stream of the rich absorbent in the desorber in order to release acid gas by shifting the acid gas equilibrium towards the gas side, and the organic acid is subsequently separated from the absorbent. With this method, the energy consumption of the process is substantially reduced. The invention also relates to an apparatus for performing this method.
