- We developed the GM model for multiple parallel reactions.
- We applied the model to piperazine and monoethanolamine CO2 capture.
- We validated the model against wetted wall column experiments.
- We investigated the impact of parameter uncertainties on mass transfer model predictions.
Reactive absorption is a key process for gas separation and purification and it is the main technology for CO2 capture. Thus, reliable and simple mathematical models for mass transfer rate calculation are essential. Models which apply to parallel interacting and non-interacting reactions, for all industrially relevant reaction regimes must be developed and validated against experimental measurements.In a previous work, we presented the general model (GM) enhancement factor model for (m+n)-th order reversible reactions and validated it against the numerical solution of the two-film model for absorption, desorption and pinch conditions.In this work, we apply the GM model to multiple parallel reactions. We deduce the model for piperazine (PZ) CO2 capture and we validate it against wetted-wall column measurements using 2, 5 and 8 molal PZ for temperatures between 40 °C and 100 °C and CO2 loadings between 0.23 and 0.41 mol CO2/2 mol PZ. We show that overall second order kinetics describes well the reaction between CO2 and PZ accounting for the carbamate and bicarbamate reactions. Here we prove the GM model for piperazine and MEA but we expect that this practical approach is applicable for various amines, blends of amines and promoted amines with similar kinetics. We believe that this practical implementation of mass transfer rate calculation will be in the accuracy range of a wetted wall column experiment for other parallel reaction systems. This is in line with our observation from other similar solvents studied, not shown here.Furthermore, we compare the GM model and the numerical solution of the complete two-film model predictions to MEA wetted-wall data and we prove that it is safe to assume that GM and the two-film model give practically identical results. We demonstrate that the expected predictability of CO2 mass transfer rates using off-the-shelf correlations generally is ±20%.
