Abstract

A crucial problem for the promising absorbent aqueous ammonia (NH3) is the low CO2 absorption rate and high ammonia volatile loss rate. This work investigated the effect of potential promoters for CO2 absorption into aqueous ammonia solutions on a wetted wall column. Monoethanolamine, sarcosinate, taurinate, glycinate, piperazine and 1-methyl piperazine were introduced to NH3 solutions as promoters. We found sarcosinate, piperazine and 1-methyl piperazine could increase the mass transfer coefficient of CO2 into the ammonia-based solutions significantly. We further undertook a detailed mass transfer study of CO2 into ammonia based blended solutions to investigate the effects of temperature and additive concentration. Besides, a novel ammonia separation method from low concentration ammonia solution by membrane vacuum regeneration was developed which could recover more than 80% of ammonia gas from low concentration ammonia.

  • Non-ventilation decarbonizing technologies are not always more effective than mechanical air filtering, since their efficiency depends on CO2 concentration, size and type of ionizer, and ventilation rate of the area being treated.

    “Nevertheless, it is not always more effective than mechanical air filtering, since its efficiency depends on the CO2 concentration, size, and type of ionizer, and the ventilation rate of the area being treated.”

    The Experimental section and Results discussion examine CO2 absorption into aqueous ammonia solutions, including effects of CO2 loading and additives; no page numbers are available in our copy. Searches for ionizers, mechanical air filtering, and ventilation found no passage comparing those technologies or identifying the claimed factors affecting an ionizer’s efficiency. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
