| Research Abstract |
This study focused on chemical absorption of CO_2 from flue gas of fire power plants using hollow fiber membrane contactor. The experimental results show that the CO_2 absorption rate increased with increasing operation temperature, which leads to reduction in required absorbent amount and the resultant reduction in power required for circulation of the absorbent and heat duty for absorbent regeneration.
An experiment of CO_2 stripping from rich absorbent liquid was also performed by using inorganic porous hollow fiber membranes. When the rich absorbent liquid fed in the tube side of the hollow fiber penetrates through the membrane wall toward the opposite shell side that is under reduced pressure, CO_2 is released from the absorbent with forming bubbles below a certain pressure level. When the bubbles were formed, the stripping rate was enhanced. The results also showed CO_2 stripping rate increased with decreasing the pore size.
