Applied aspects for enhanced CO2 capture from reformer gas: Comparison between the performance of valve tray absorber and packed column, Part I

- The CO2 capture by valve tray column was simulated in the presence of MEA.
- The calculated results were validated by the data obtained in the industrial scale.
- The performance of tray and packed columns were evaluated.
- The optimum conditions and appropriate structured packing were determined.
- The reported results can be useful in the industrial applications.
