Abstract

Rotating packed bed (RPB) system has applications in CO 2 removal using chemical solvents which can reduce the size about ten times compared to common packed bed (PB) system. In this study, RPB stripper using monoethanolamine (MEA) solution is modelled in gPROMS ® software. The model has been validated using experimental data from literature and show good agreement. In addition to stripper modelling and validation, the process analysis is accomplished in this study by assessing the influence of four parameters namely rotor speed, reboiler temperature, flow rate of rich liquid, and pressure on desorption efficiency and desorption energy.
