Publication number: 20150375137Abstract: A device and a method are for treatment of an amino acid salt solution that is contaminated with carbon dioxide and is an absorbent for carbon dioxide from a flue gas of a combustion, and includes a reaction process, a following filtration process and a following dissolution process. In the reaction process, carbon dioxide is introduced into the amino acid salt solution, and the amino acid salt solution is cooled. In this case crystalline carbonate and crystalline amino acid precipitate out. In the filtration process, the crystalline carbonate and the crystalline amino acid are filtered off. In the dissolution process the crystalline carbonate and the crystalline amino acid are dissolved in a solvent and a treated amino acid salt solution is thereby recovered.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2014Publication date: December 31, 2015Applicant: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Björn Fischer, Stefan Hauke, Ralph Joh, Markus Kinzl, Rüdiger Schneider
