  • CO2 Capture from Flue Gas Using Amino Acid Salt Solutions
    CO2 capture from flue gas using amino acid salt solutions Jacco van Holst, Patricia. P. Politiek, John P. M. Niederer, Geert F. Versteeg* University of Twente, Faculty Science and Technology (UT TNW), P.O. Box 217, 7500 AE Enschede, The Netherlands Abstract An initial kinetic study was performed on the reaction of CO2 with various potassium amino acid salt solutions at 298 K. Kinetics were measured at 0.5 kmol/m3, reason for which only apparent ki- netic constants are presented. The results were compared with the work of Kumar et al. [1] and Penny and Ritter [2]. Keywords: CO2, flue gas treatment, kinetics, potassium amino acid salt solutions Introduction One of the most alarming global environmental problems of today is the increase of the natural greenhouse effect. This problem is mainly caused by the increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration due to the burning of fossil fuels for power generation. To reduce these problems, the carbon dioxide emissions from flue and fuel gases produced in combustion and gasification proc- esses in power plants have to be decreased by efficiency improvements and carbon dioxide capture. The removal of acid gases such as carbon dioxide, H2S or COS by absorption in aqueous alkanola- mine solutions is widely used in the chemical industry. Carbon dioxide reacts with primary and sec- ondary amines, reaching an equilibrium of carbamate, bicarbonate, and carbonate species. The ini- tial absorption reaction is the formation of the carbamate, which can then undergo hydrolysis to the bicarbonate and, if conditions such as pH are suitable, the carbonate species. The degree of hydroly- sis of the carbamate is determined by parameters such as amine concentration, solution pH, and the chemical stability of the carbamate [3].

  • The Preparation and Properties of the Neutral Ammonium Salts of Organic Acids
    742 LEROY MCMASTER. is seen to be 12.2, in good agreement with Kopp’s number. The atomic volume of divalent carbon in the carbon monoxide is 23. It is interest- ing to note that, if acetylene be assumed to have a divalent and a tetra- valent carbon atom, i. e., the acetylidene structure, its atomic volume agrees exactly with that found experimentally. We have endeavored to produce addition compounds of acetylene and hydrobromic at low temperatures. Acetylene is quite soluble in this acid, but solutions containing even 50% of acetylene show no tendency to pre- cipitate compounds at temperatures as low as -115’. With liquids having high vapor pressures at their freezing points, such as hydrobromic and hydriodic acid, but particularly with acetylene, the phenomenon of freezing and boiling occurring simultaneously is shown in a striking way. Liquid acetylene in a sealed tube can be supercooled about 5’. As crystallization takes place the remaining liquid boils furiously. MCGILLUNIVERSITY. [CONTRIBUTIONFROM THE CHEMICALLABORATORY OF WASHINGTONUNIVERSITY. ] THE PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF THE NEUTRAL AMMONIUM SALTS OF ORGANIC ACIDS. BY LEROYMCMASTER. Received January 31, 1914. As stated in two previous papers,’ most of the ammonium salts of organic acids described in the literature are the acid salts instead of the neutral salts Many of the “neutral” salts purchased have also been found to be “acid.” This is due to the fact that they have been pre- pared by neutralizing the aqueous solution of the organic acid with am- monia water or ammonium carbonate and the solution allowed to evaporate to crystallization. The salts thus formed are generally hydrolyzed and the acid salt results.

  • Experiment # 9: the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation
    Experiment # 9: The Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation A buffer is commonly defined as a solution that resists changes in pH when a small amount of acid or base is added or when the solution is diluted with pure solvent. This property is extremely useful in maintaining the pH of a chemical system at an optimum value to appropriately influence the reaction kinetics or equilibrium processes. A buffer solution actually is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. The conjugate forms are commonly referred to as “salts”. For a typical weak acid, the dissociation equilibrium is represented as: + + Acid l H + Base; Ka = [H ] [Base] [Acid] according to the Bronsted-Lowry concept. If a pure weak acid is dissolved in a pure solvent the concentrations of H+ and conjugate Base will be equal, neglecting autoprotolysis of the solvent. Rearranging the dissociation constant equation and solving for [H+ ] gives: [H +] 1/2 = [Ka (Acid)] . If other factors governing conjugate base concentration are present in the system (either as added salt of the weak acid or as added base to partially neutralize the acid), the concentrations of H+ and conjugate Base will no longer be the same. Under these conditions, the equation for [H+ ] becomes: + [H ] = Ka [Acid]/[Base] = K [Acid]/[Base]. Taking negative logarithms of both sides of the above equation gives: + -log ([H ]) = -log (Ka ) – log ([Acid]/[Salt]) or pH = pKa – log ([Acid]/[Salt]). Upon inversion of the argument the last log term becomes positive, as: pH = pKa + log ([Salt]/[Acid]).
