Simulering av koldioxidavskiljningsprocesser nyttjande 2-amino-2-metyl-propanol

Det talas allt oftare om stigande världshav, tropiska stormar och klimatflyktingar. Vi vet alla att vi måste minska våra CO2-utsläpp för att överleva följderna av den globala uppvärmningen. Om det ändå fanns något sätt att samla upp all CO2 från luften så hade kanske den globala uppvärmningen varit ett minne blott…. Men hör här, denna teknik finns redan idag! Tekniken kallas CO2-absorptionsteknik A rather hot subject in today’s society is global warming. Both technical progresses and global agreements between nations are much needed to counter this ever growing world problem. In this report a novel CO2-capture system, using the sterically hindered amine 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) as an organic solvent, is investigated by process simulation in the sof
