Abstract
A simplified model has been developed to investigate effects of important operating parameters on performance of an entrained-bed absorber and bubbling-bed regenerator system collecting CO2 from flue gas. The particle population balance was considered together with chemical reaction to determine the extent of conversion in both absorber and regenerator. The calculated CO2 capture efficiency agreed with the measured value reasonably well. Effects of absorber parameters - temperature, gas velocity, static bed height, moisture content of feed gas on CO2 capture efficiency - have been investigated in a laboratory scale process. The CO2 capture efficiency decreased as temperature or gas velocity increased. However, it increased with static bed height or moisture concentration. The CO2 capture efficiency was exponentially proportional to each parameter. Based on the absolute value of exponent of the parameter, the effect of gas velocity, static bed height, and moisture content was one-half, one-third, and one-fourth as strong as that of temperature, respectively.
