🏭 Vim li cas MEA thiaj li ua Tus Qauv Absorbent
Ntau cov khoom sib xyaw ua ke los ua MEA tshwj xeeb tsim nyog rau kev tshem tawm cov roj acid:
Raws li ib qho tseem ceeb amine nrog pKa 9.50, MEA reacts sai nrog CO₂ ntawm carbamate tsim - cov tshuaj tiv thaiv yog sai dua li theem nrab los yog tertiary amines. Qhov no tso cai rau compact absorber kem tsim thiab luv dua lub sij hawm sib cuag.
MEA ua tiav CO₂ loadings ntawm 0.45-0.55 mol CO₂ ib mol MEA nyob rau hauv ib txwm absorber tej yam kev mob, nrog ib tug theoretical siab tshaj plaws ntawm 0.5 mol / mol ntawm carbamate chemistry. Qhov no yog kev sib tw nrog feem ntau lwm cov kuab tshuaj ntawm qhov sib piv.
MEA carbamates thiab bicarbonates decompose huv si ntawm 110-130℃hauv lub stripper, tso siab -purity CO₂ thiab regenerating lean amine. Kev tsim kho chemistry yog tus cwj pwm zoo, thiab kev siv tshuab tau txais kev txhawb nqa los ntawm ntau xyoo ntawm cov ntaub ntawv ua haujlwm.
MEA yog tsim nyob rau hauv loj industrial scale raws li ib tug co- khoom ntawm ethylene oxide / ammonia cov tshuaj tiv thaiv. Nws tus nqi ib tonne yog qhov qis dua li kev tsim khoom sib xyaw amine cov kuab tshuaj, cov txheej txheem tsim khoom, lossis cov kua dej ionic absorbents - qhov tseem ceeb rau kev ua haujlwm loj tas mus li -.
Tsis muaj lwm yam amine hnyav muaj qhov tob ntawm kev luam tawm thermodynamic, kinetic, thiab cov ntaub ntawv ua haujlwm uas MEA tau sau tseg. Qhov no ua rau cov txheej txheem simulation, scale- nce, thiab kev daws teeb meem muaj kev ntseeg siab ntau dua li cov kuab tshuaj tshiab uas muaj kev paub dhau los.
🔬 Absorption Chemistry
MEA reacts nrog CO₂ los ntawm ob txoj hauv kev sib luag, nrog txoj kev tseem ceeb nyob ntawm CO₂ ib nrab siab thiab MEA concentration.
Txoj Kev 1: Carbamate Formation (tseem ceeb ntawm CO₂ loading tsawg)
2 RNH₂ + CO₂ → RNHCOO⁻ + RNH₃⁺
qhov twg R=-CH₂CH₂OH (cov pab pawg hydroxyethyl ntawm MEA)
Qhov no zwitterionic mechanism yog ceev thiab nce mus txawm nyob rau hauv qis CO₂ ib nrab siab. Nws siv ob moles ntawm MEA ib mole ntawm CO₂, uas yog vim li cas lub theoretical siab tshaj loading ntawm carbamate chemistry yog 0.5 mol CO₂ / mol MEA. Carbamate ntsev (MEA carbamate) yog hom tseem ceeb hauv cov nplua nuj amine tov tawm hauv qab absorber.
Txoj Kev 2: Kev Tsim Bicarbonate (tseem ceeb ntawm CO₂ loading siab)
RNH₂ + CO₂ + H₂O → RNH₃⁺ + HCO₃⁻
Txoj kev no tsuas yog siv 1 mol MEA ib mol CO₂, tab sis qeeb dua carbamate tsim
Thaum siab dua CO₂ ib feem ntawm qhov siab lossis thaum lub ntshiv thauj khoom tau nce siab, kev tsim bicarbonate ua qhov tseem ceeb dua. Txoj hauv kev bicarbonate muaj qhov zoo dua stoichiometry (1: 1 es tsis yog 2: 1) tab sis qeeb kinetics, uas yog vim li cas tus qauv absorber feem ntau tsom rau cov xwm txheej uas carbamate tsim nyob rau hauv qis absorber seem.
Regeneration: Reversing Reaction
Nyob rau hauv lub stripper (desorber), cov nplua nuj amine tov yog rhuab mus rau 110-130 degree. Ob hom carbamate thiab bicarbonate decompose, tso CO₂ thiab dej vapor thiab rov tsim cov amine dawb:
RNHCOO⁻ + RNH₃⁺ + heat → 2 RNH₂ + CO₂↑
RNH₃⁺ + HCO₃⁻ + heat → RNH₂ + CO₂↑ + H₂O
Kev kub siab ntawm cov tshuaj tiv thaiv rau MEA carbamate (kwv yees li -85 kJ / mol CO₂ absorbed) yog lub hauv paus ua rau MEA lub siab rov tsim hluav taws xob nplua - feem ntau 3.5–4.2 GJ ib tonne CO₂ ntes tau - uas yog thawj tsav tsheb ntawm kev tshawb fawb rau hauv qis dua {{5}.} cov ntawv thov loj {{5}.} enthalpy
Methyl diethanolamine (MDEA), tertiary amine, reacts nrog CO₂ tsuas yog los ntawm txoj kev qeeb bicarbonate - nws tsis tuaj yeem tsim cov carbamates. Qhov no muab MDEA qis dua CO₂ nqus kinetics dua li MEA, tab sis qhov yuav tsum tau muaj zog dua qub (~ 2.0–2.5 GJ / t CO₂). Hauv kev xyaum, ntau cov nroj tsuag niaj hnub siv roj sivactivated MDEA (aMDEA)- MDEA sib xyaw nrog cov khoom me me ntawm kev ceev ceev -reacting amine xws li piperazine los yog MEA - los ua ke MDEA lub zog efficiency nrog cov nqi haum txaus.

⚠️ MEA Degradation: Ua, Khoom, thiab Kev Tswj
MEA degradation yog qhov nyuaj ua haujlwm hauv MEA-raws li kev kho roj. Ob txoj kev degradation sib txawv ua haujlwm ib txhij hauv ntau lub tshuab.
1 - Oxidative degradation
Nyob rau hauv lub xub ntiag ntawm cov pa yaj, MEA oxidises los tsim ib tug ntau yam ntawm nitrogen-muaj thiab oxygen- muaj cov khoom degradation xws li glycolate, oxalate, formate, thiab ntau yam amine fragments. Oxygen ingress feem ntau tshwm sim ntawm qhov nqus dej nkag (cov ntawv siv hluav taws xob) lossis los ntawm cov tso tsheb hlau luam thiab cov vents kaw tsis raug.
Cov tswv yim tswj xyuas tseem ceeb:

Ntawm qhov kub thiab txias, MEA tuaj yeem cuam tshuam nrog CO₂ los ua kom ruaj khov, tsis yog - cov khoom siv rov ua dua tshiab ua ke hu uacua sov- cov ntsev ruaj khov (HSS). Qhov tseem ceeb tshaj plaws yog oxazolidone, tsim los ntawm cyclisation ntawm MEA carbamate ntawm qhov kub siab. N-(2-hydroxyethyl)imidazolidone (HEIA) yog lwm yam khoom siv thermal degradation loj.
HSS tsis regenerate nyob rau hauv lub stripper. Lawv sawv cev rau qhov poob mus tas li ntawm cov khoom siv amine los ntawm cov khoom muag thoob plaws. Hauv kev tswj tsis tau zoo, HSS cov ntsiab lus tuaj yeem ncav cuag 5-15% ntawm tag nrho cov amine, txo qhov nqus tau ib liter ntawm cov kuab tshuaj. Saib xyuas tag nrho HSS los ntawm ion chromatography; pib reclaiming thaum HSS tshaj 2-3% ntawm tag nrho cov amine.
🔧 Reclaiming: Rov qab Active MEA
Thermal reclaimer (sab-kwj lub tshuab nqus tsev distillation) yog cov cuab yeej txheem hauv MEA cov nroj tsuag loj. Ib qho kwj deg ntawm 1-3% ntawm cov kuab tshuaj circulating yog pub rau cov reclaimer, qhov uas tsis muaj zog MEA yog distilled tawm thiab xa rov qab mus rau lub system, tawm hauv qab ib tug concentrated residue ntawm HSS, corrosion khoom, thiab hnyav degradation tebchaw uas yog periodically tshem tawm raws li pov tseg.
Zoo-Ua haujlwm MEA cov nroj tsuag nrog kev rov qab ua haujlwm thiab kev tswj hwm inhibitor ua tiav MEA noj cov nqi ntawm0.5-2.0 kg MEA ib tonne CO₂ ntes. Cov txheej txheem tswj tsis zoo tuaj yeem pom qhov poob ntawm 5 kg / t CO₂ lossis siab dua.
