Abstract

Previous work has shown that non-aqueous absorbent composed of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 2-ethylhexylan-1-amine (EHA) is superior to commercial monoethanolamine (MEA) in both absorption of CO2 and desorption. However, the price of DMSO is too high, which leads to the high cost of reagents. It is worthwhile to choose a cheap solvent instead of DMSO, which can also achieve satisfactory absorption and desorption performance. Around this goal, we selected diethylene glycol diethyl ether (DEGDEE) to form a non-aqueous absorbent with EHA and investigated the absorption and desorption performance. The desorption efficiency of 70 wt% EHA +30 wt% DEGDEE was 99 % at 373 K. The desorption efficiency was 89.4 %, and the desorption energy consumption was only 45.1 % of MEA when the water content was 10 wt%. DEGDEE can achieve similar or even better performance than DMSO, while the cost of DEGDEE (12000–31000 RMB/ton, technical grade purity 99 %) is lower than DMSO (40000–48000 RMB/ton, technical grade purity 99 %). In addition, it also has a good recycling capacity. These advantages will certainly endow this newly developed absorbent with great application prospects in the field of CO2 capture.
