Abstract

Aqueous biphasic solvent blends consisting of diethylenetriamine (DETA) and a tertiary amine, N,N,N',N",N"-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) or bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl] ether (BDMAEE), were experimentally assessed. Results revealed that the composition of solvent blends greatly affected the CO₂ loading capacity and dual-phase transition behavior. A speciation analysis of dual liquid phases suggested that CO₂ absorption was a two-stage process, in which CO₂ reacted with DETA initially, followed by the protonation of PMDETA or BDMAEE and the production of HCO₃^-/CO₃^2- species lately. Rates of CO₂ absorption and pressures of CO₂ desorption were also measured for the selected solvent blends and compared with the benchmark monoethanolamine solvent. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
