Abstract

CO₂ membrane stripping is a novel method for CO₂ desorption at low temperature (around 348K) for amine-based CO₂ capture, which has the potential to reduce regeneration energy requirement. In this work, we investigated CO₂ membrane stripping with two different commercial hollow fiber membranes, polypropylene (PP) and Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). CO₂ membrane stripping in PVDF membrane showed a faster CO₂ desorption rate than in PP membrane, but PP membrane presented a better stability on long-term running. Energy consumption for CO₂ membrane stripping with 20 wt% MEA solvent was evaluated. Compared with conventional thermal regeneration, 28% energy can be saved if regeneration pressure of CO₂ membrane stripping operated at 20 kPa.
