Abstract
The application of spray towers for CO2 capture is a development trend in recent years. However, most of the previous jobs were conducted in a cylindrical tower by using a single spray nozzle, whose configuration and performance is not good enough for industrial application. To solve this problem, the present work proposed a diameter-varying spray tower and a new spray mode of dual-nozzle opposed impinging spray to enhance the absorption performance of CO2 spray absorption process. Experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of varies operating parameters on the overall mass transfer coefficient in various operating conditions. Experimental results showed that liquid to gas ratio and mole ratio of MEA to CO2 are key factors which affect the performance of CO2 absorption process and the maximum overall mass transfer coefficient for the diameter-varying dual-nozzle opposed impinging spray tower is 0.4773 kmol·m-3·h-1·kPa-1.
