Comparison of Equilibrium- Stage and Rate Based Model of an Absorption Column for a CO2-MEA system

The desorption step of the carbon dioxide absorption/desorption process is an extremely energy intensive process, which accounts for approximately 70% of operating cost according to Mofarahi et al. [2008]. Technip-ECN has proposed a solution of Heat integrated distillation column which will be adapted for the absorption process. In order to...
