Abstract

By means of computer simulation, we improved the chemical-based CO2 capture system with Monoethanolamide (MEA) absorbent on the PRO/II software platform. The research results of the capture process provides suggested optimal process parameters for large-scale flue gas CO2 capture projects, in an attempt to reduce the cost of capture, reduce energy consumption and increase the rate of CO2 recovery. The chemical-based CO2 adsorption model was established in this paper, with which we analysed the effects of various absorption solution parameters (volume flow rate, temperature, concentration, etc.) on CO2 absorption rate, obtaining optimum process parameter.
