  • Patent number: 9399188
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a CO2 removal apparatus that prevents release of an amine compound of an absorbing solution from a CO2 absorption device. The CO2 removal apparatus includes a desorption column 13 that heats and regenerates an amine compound aqueous solution discharged from a decarbonator 1 making counterflow contact of a combustion exhaust gas and an amine compound aqueous solution; and reflux means that refluxes an amine compound aqueous solution regenerated in the desorption column 13 to the decarbonator 1 via a cooler 19. A contact section that makes counterflow contact of reflux water of the desorption column 13 and a CO2-removed combustion exhaust gas is formed in two stages, and the cooler 19 on the downstream side of the desorption column is also formed in two stages. Reflux water from the first stage cooler is supplied to the first stage contact section, and reflux water from the second stage cooler is supplied to the second stage contact section.

    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for treating an exhaust gas containing CO2, that can adjust the concentration of an oxidation inhibitor in an absorbent to the concentration enough to inhibit oxidation, without measuring the concentration of the oxidation inhibitor in an alkanolamine contained in a CO2 absorbent. Disclosed are a method and a device for adjusting the compositional ratio of an absorbent, in which absorption and release of carbon dioxide are performed by adding an oxidation inhibitor to an alkanolamine absorbent when the sum of the concentrations of ammonia and an alkylamine in an absorber column outlet gas of a CO2 absorption equipment.
