The reaction rates of CO2 in an aqueous blend of amine solutions of N‐(2‐hydroxethyl)piperazine (N‐HEPZ) and 2‐amino‐2‐hydroxymethyl‐1,3‐propanediol (AHPD) at 298 K were investigated in a concentration range of 0.0025–0.03 kmol m–3 N‐HEPZ with a blend of 1 kmol m–3 AHPD. The reaction was modeled using a termolecular reaction mechanism with a rate of 12 971 m3kmol–1s–1. The results indicate that the blended aqueous solution of N‐HEPZ and AHPD is a potential candidate as an alternative solvent for CO2 absorption, where the sterically hindered AHPD increases the CO2 capacity and the reaction rate is enhanced by the promoter, N‐HEPZ.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
