In order to overcome the drawbacks of conventional absorbents, which exhibit slow absorption rates and low absorption loads, this study suggests enhancing the absorbent system for CO 2 absorption by incorporating a nonaqueous solvent into 1,3-propanediamine (DAP) and tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA), resulting in a two-phase system. The mechanism of solvent absorption of CO 2 was investigated using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) carbon spectroscopy. By comparing the absorption load, fraction ratio, and viscosity of different absorbents after absorbing carbon dioxide, the two-phase absorbents with good performance were selected. The poor water absorbent consisting of the DAP/TMEDA system exhibited an absorption load of 3.8 mol/kg, surpassing that of the conventional 30% ethanolamine solution. A nonaqueous solvent is added to the system to replace some of the water to reduce the fraction. After adding different nonaqueous solvents, the phase separation system was screened after 2 h of CO 2 absorption. The system with good performance was tested for the absorption of the solution under different amine concentration and water concentration tests. It is found that the absorption load of the DAP/TMEDA/diglyme system is 3.2 mol/kg, but the fraction can be reduced to 38%. The significant reduction in rich phase volume is beneficial for reducing the size and cost of regeneration tower. According to NMR detection and quantum chemical calculations, it was found that DAP/TMEDA absorbs carbon dioxide to form carbamate. DAP acts as the main absorbent, while TMEDA and nonaqueous solvents do not participate in the absorption reaction. Nonaqueous solvents were found to accelerate the solution phase separation due to the salt precipitation reaction.
