METHOD AND PLANT FOR AMINE EMISSION CONTROL

A method for eliminating or substantially reducing emission of amines (amineslip) and alkaline degradation products to the atmosphere from a plant for CO2 capture from a flue gas, where the CO2 is captured by counter-current flow to an absorbent in an absorption zone, the absorbent comprising an aqu...

Zusammenfassung:A method for eliminating or substantially reducing emission of amines (amineslip) and alkaline degradation products to the atmosphere from a plant for CO2 capture from a flue gas, where the CO2 is captured by counter-current flow to an absorbent in an absorption zone, the absorbent comprising an aqueous solution of one or more amine(s), to give a CO2 lean flue gas that is released into the surroundings, and a CO2 rich absorbent that is regenerated in a regeneration column to give a CO2 rich gas that is treated further, and regenerated absorbent that is recycled to the absorption zone, wherein the CO2 lean flue gas is washed with an acidic aqueous solution to remove or substantially reduce the amount of amine(s) and alkaline degradation products thereof in the gas, is described.
