Comparison of rate-based and equilibrium-stage models of a packed column for post-combustion CO2 capture using 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) solution

- Rate-based and equilibrium-stage models are developed and compared for CO2 capture by AMP solution.
- The developed models are accurately validated by simulating a number of literature data.
- The rate-based model of a packed absorption column is preferred in post-combustion CO2 capture process.
- Comparison of the absorption performance between the CO2-MEA and CO2-AMP system is performed.
