Description
Summary:An industrial diethanolamine (DEA) promoted hot potassium carbonate process was simulated and validated against the industrial data from literature. By implementing the industrial data the absorber unit of CO 2 capturing using hot potassium carbonate solution promoted by DEA, was simulated using rate based approach in Aspen Plus. Acceptable agreements between simulation and the measured industrial data have been interpreted. Further, the sensitivity analysis and finding the optimal operation points were performed using the rate based model.
