AMINE TREATING PROCESS FOR ACID GAS SEPARATION USING BLENDS OF AMINES AND ALKYLOXYAMINES

A process for absorbing H2S and CO2 from a gas mixture containing both these gases comprises contacting the gas mixture with an absorbent combination of (i) primary absorbent component comprising a severely sterically hindered tertiary etheramine triethylene glycol alcohol or derivative of such an a...

Zusammenfassung:A process for absorbing H2S and CO2 from a gas mixture containing both these gases comprises contacting the gas mixture with an absorbent combination of (i) primary absorbent component comprising a severely sterically hindered tertiary etheramine triethylene glycol alcohol or derivative of such an alcohol and (ii) secondary absorbent component for acidic gases comprising a liquid amine such as methyldiethylamine (MDEA), monoethanolamine (MEA), 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), piperazine (PZ), diethanolamine (DEA), triethanolamine (TEA), diglycolamine (aminoethoxyethanol, DGA) and diisopropylamine (DIPA) another etheramine alcohol or diamine. By using the combination of amine absorbents, the overall selectivity of CO2 pickup can be maintained while retaining good H2S sorption selectivity; the selectivity of the combination for H2S and CO2 may be controlled over a range of gas loadings in the absorbent.
