ABSTRACT: Density, speed of sound, viscosity, and surface tension of the binary mixtures N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone (EP) + ethanolamine (MEA) (or diethanolamine (DEA) or triethanolamine (TEA)) were measured at different temperatures from (293.15 to 323.15) K over the entire range of concentrations. The excess molar volumes and isentropic compressibility deviations were calculated. Moreover, the excess molar volumes were fitted using a Redlich−Kister equation, and the surface tension data were fitted by the Connors−Wright model.





INTRODUCTION

EXPERIMENTAL SECTION Materials. Information about the reagents employed in this work is included in Table 1. Bidistilled water has been used to prepare the mixtures.

Over the past several years, blends of two alkanolamines have been proposed as suitable solvents to replace aqueous solutions of one alkanolamine in the process of carbon dioxide capture at industrial level by different researchers1 because this second amine can produce an enhancement of the absorption/ regeneration process. Several researchers have performed different characterization studies in relation with physicochemical properties for binary2,3 and ternary amine-based systems.4,5 Other alternative way to improve the carbon dioxide absorption or capture could be the substitution of water (solvent) for other substances. Several studies6 have concluded that amides, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone or N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone, show suitable behaviors to be used in carbon dioxide physical absorption in gas purification processes. Taking the above into consideration, the blend of a single alkanolamine with a physical solvent, including EP, could be an appropriated alternative to conventional processes of carbon dioxide capture. At present, both MEA, DEA, and TEA are compounds used in absorption processes to capture acid gases,7,8 and for this reason, in the present work several physical properties (density, speed of sound, viscosity, and surface tension) of different binary systems formed by amine and amide, MEA (or DEA or TEA) with EP, were measured at different temperatures from (293.15 to 323.15) K and over the entire range of compositions. These physical properties can have a high influence on the mass transfer processes and hydrodynamics,9 so their knowledge will allow us to understand the observed behaviors. © 2013 American Chemical Society

c Standard uncertainties u are u(T) = 0.01 K, u(p) = 20 Pa, u(x) = 0.0008, and the combined expanded uncertainties Uc (level of confidence = 0.95, k = 2) are Uc(ρ) = 2·10−4 g·cm−3, Uc(c) = 1.2 m·s−1, Uc(η) = 0.0026 mPa·s, and Uc(σ) = 0.3 mN·m−1.

shows clearly that the presence of amines causes an increase in the value of density in all systems. Also, the experimental data indicate that the substitution degree in amines increases the influence of amine concentration upon density. The observed behaviors are in agreement with the experimental results previously obtained using water instead the amide,19 but the effect of amine concentration upon density in aqueous solutions is different than the observed in amide mixtures because in aqueous solutions density reaches a maximum for the MEA + water system. Also for mixtures with DEA and TEA a clear change in the trend was observed in comparison with the data shown in Figure 1. If N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) is used with alkanolamines, an increase in linearity is observed with regard to the influence of composition upon density, and the behavior is similar for systems with EP. The effect caused by temperature upon density is similar to the behavior observed for liquid mixtures, namely, a decrease in the value of density when temperature increases. From experimental density data for each system (amide + amine) the molar volume excess has been calculated for each composition and temperature using eq 3.

Schott-Geräte AVS 350 Ubbelohde viscosimeter. Equation 1 was used to obtain the viscosity on the basis of transit time

ν = K · (t − θ )

“where t is the efflux time; K is the characteristic constant of the capillary viscosimeter; and θ is a coefficient to correct end effects. Both parameters were obtained from the capillaries supplier (Schott). An electronic stopwatch with an accuracy of ± 0.01 s was used to measure efflux times. In the measurements, a Schott-Geräte AVS 350 Ubbelohde viscosimeter was used. The dynamic viscosity (η) was obtained from the product of the kinematic viscosity (ν) and the corresponding density (ρ) of the mixture, in terms of eq 2 for each mixture composition”.10 The uncertainty of the viscosity measurement was 0.0026 mPa·s. η = ν·ρ (2) Surface Tension. “The surface tension was determined by employing a Krüss K-11 tensiometer using the Wilhelmy plate method. The plate employed was a commercial platinum plate supplied by Krüss. The platinum plate was cleaned and flamedried before each measurement. Each surface tension value reported came from an average of five measurements. The samples were thermostatted in a closed stirring vessel before the surface tension measurements”.10 The highest temperature used in this study was avoided for surface tension measurements because evaporation processes could influence the measurement uncertainty. The surface tension uncertainty was 0.3 mN·m−1.

where xi, Mi, and ρi are the molar fractions, molecular weights, and densities of pure components, respectively. The corresponding excess molar volume uncertainty was 0.001 cm3·mol−1. Table S1 (included in the Supporting Information) shows the calculated data corresponding to excess molar volume obtained from experimental density data (Tables 3 to 5). Figure 2 shows the excess molar volume corresponding to the EP + MEA system at different temperatures. These mixtures show the most complex behavior in these mixtures of EP with different alkanolamines, with positive and negative values depending on mixture composition. The presence of positive and negative values for molar excess volume is caused by the presence of two different kinds of behavior. On one hand the positive values for excess molar volume (at high EP composition) are due to the nonexistence of strong specific interactions between the mixtures substances. This fact could be caused by the rupture of hydrogen bonds of alkanolamine structure. On the other hand, the presence of negative values for excess molar volume in the MEA-rich region is due to the formation of a complex between amine and amide. Different



RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The present work analyzes the influence of composition, temperature, and the type of alkanolamine in mixtures with Nethyl-2-pyrrolidone over several physical properties and derived variables. A comparison between the values of these properties corresponding to pure components (experimental and literature data) was performed. Table 2 shows this comparison, and a good agreement between both values was obtained. In relation with the influence of composition, temperature, and type of alkanolamine used in the mixtures with N-ethyl-2pyrrolidone upon these physical properties (density, speed of sound, viscosity, and surface tension), Tables 3 to 5 show the experimental values obtained over the entire composition range and different temperatures. Figure 1 shows the experimental data allowing the analysis of the influence of mixture composition and type of alkanolamine over density. This figure 654

agreement with the previously one for density and excess molar volume that show a low deviation from ideality in this binary mixture. In relation with the influence of temperature upon speed of sound, an increase in this variable produces a decrease in speed of sound in all cases, but the importance of the influence of temperature over this property decreases when amine substitution increases.

shows the obtained behavior for this physical property and for the different binary mixtures. This figure allows us to analyze the influence of composition and the alkanolamine type upon viscosity. A trend similar to the density was observed: an increase in the substitution degree causes an increase in viscosity in this kind of mixtures. For DEA and TEA mixtures, a higher increase in viscosity is produced with the amine addition than for MEA mixtures. The effect of temperature is very important causing a high decrease in the value of viscosity. The observed behaviors for these systems show several differences in comparison with amine aqueous solutions. For example, the presence of water in EP aqueous solutions causes an increase in viscosity until reach a maximum in the water-rich region.23 For aqueous solutions of MEA, DEA, and TEA the

behavior is similar to the systems using EP instead of water: an increase in viscosity with amine concentration, but water + amine mixtures take higher values of viscosity than EP + amine systems with large differences mainly in mixtures with the amine mole fraction higher than 0.2.17,24 On the other hand, for EP + amines systems the highest influence of composition upon viscosity is produced in the amine-rich composition range. The influence of mixture composition upon dynamic viscosity data has been fitted using the Grunberg−Nissan model25 (eq 8). 2

The last physical property analyzed in this work about the influence of the use of other solvent different than water for alkanolamine solutions was the surface tension. This property has an important effect over different separation operations and chemical processes. A lower surface tension generally causes positive behaviors in mass transfer operations which increases the effectivity of these processes. An example of the experimental results obtained for surface tension is shown in Figure 5. The behavior is similar for all of the experimental systems analyzed in this study. In these systems an increase in surface tension was always observed when alkanolamine concentration increases in the binary mixture. There are no important differences in the magnitude of surface tension between the binary systems analyzed in this study. The MEA and DEA systems have a common behavior such as for speed of sound data, while the TEA system shows a more linear trend. These behaviors are very different than for water + amine systems14,18 because low amine additions caused an important decrease in water surface tension until they reach a relatively constant value in the water-rich region. This behavior is produced by the high amine surface concentration in aqueous systems. For EP + amine systems the variation of surface tension shows a slighter trend than for aqueous solutions. A low surface tension value in this kind of systems can produce favorable effects in several industrial operations.

CONCLUSIONS This study has analyzed different physical properties of N-ethyl2-pyrrolidone + alkanolamines (MEA, DEA, and TEA): density, speed of sound, viscosity, and surface tension. The influence of composition and temperature upon each physical property has been carefully studied. In general, an increase in the substitution degree in the nitrogen atom causes an increase in the magnitude of each property. Only for the speed of sound a different behavior was observed. Different derived properties were obtained such as excess molar volume or isentropic compressibility. 658

Important differences in properties such as viscosity and surface tension were obtained comparing alkanolamine aqueous solutions with corresponding ones using N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone instead of water: a clear decrease in both properties were observed, and this behavior could be interesting in different mass transfer operations because it can increase the mass transfer rate.
