CO2 capture by absorption into aqueous tertiary amine solution

The aim of this research is to obtain the absorption rate of CO2 into aqueous solution of N,N- di methyl ethanolamine and into aqueous solution of Triethylene diamine and to demonstrate the importance of absorption of CO2 in nowadays by discussing global warming and greenhouse effect. It is also discussed the current situation of China focusing in the latest steps this country has recently made. In the experimental part of this work, the two tertiary amine solutions will absorb CO2 in a Lewis type cell, measuring the pressure change during the reactions take place. The temperature will be between 35 degree and 70 degree Celsius. The results of both solutions, concentrations of 0.5 and 1.0 mol per liter, are discussed and a single value of the rate constant is given for the first time along with some others parameters.
