The Effects of Chemical Hydration Level on Carbon Dioxide Absorption by High Performance Sodasorb.

Abstract

Investigation of the effects of carbon dioxide absorbent hydration level as related to carbon dioxide absorption efficiency with both water vapor saturated and dry carrier gases is reported. Absorbent moisture content studies ranged from 0.6 to 20.1 percent at carrier gas linear velocities of 10 to 20 centimeters per second. For a dry carrier gas, increased carbon dioxide absorption efficiency correlates directly with an increase in absorbent hydration level. A more complex relationship was observed for a saturated carrier gas; however, the general trend was for carbon dioxide absorption efficiency to increase with decreasing absorbent moisture content (Author).
