ABSTRACT: Solubilities of N2O in and densities and viscosities of aqueous solutions of ammonia, piperazine (PZ), and their aqueous blends were measured at (283.15, 293.15, 303.15, 313.15, and 323.15) K. The experiments cover the mass fraction ranges: (1 to 30) mol % ammonia, (0.1 to 2) mol % PZ, and (1 to 11) mol % ammonia + (0.18 to 2) mol % PZ in the blended solutions. The results are compared with available data in the literature. The experimental density and viscosity data were correlated using two semiempirical correlations as a function of temperature and concentration of ammonia and PZ.



INTRODUCTION The absorption of CO2 with amine-based absorbents (i.e., monoethanolamine (MEA), methyl diethanolamine (MDEA)) is an established and proven technology.1 However, drawbacks of normal alkanolamines are still high energy requirements and capital cost. The overall challenge is to bring these two factors down with new and environmentally acceptable solvents. Aqueous ammonia has recently been considered to have potential as an effective and economic solvent for CO2 capture based on low corrosion potential, low regeneration energy requirement, low cost, and low degradation rates.2−6 However, ammonia as an absorbent has two important issues to face. First, the reaction rate of CO2 absorption into aqueous ammonia is low compared with MEA, ethylenediamine (EDA), and other organic amine solutions.7 Second, aqueous ammonia at concentrations higher than 15 % has a high volatility.8 Organic amine solutions are considered as additives to aqueous ammonia. Piperazine (PZ) was found to be a very active promoter compared to other amines. Several studies report on the characteristics and performance of PZ activated blends such as PZ-activated aqueous MDEA, 2-amino-2-methyl1-propanol (AMP), and K2CO3. The patent of Alstom9 mentions the use of PZ as a promoter to the chilled ammonia absorbent. Therefore, using PZ-blended ammonia solution is considered to be a possible route to improve the absorption characteristics of © 2012 American Chemical Society

ammonia. The density and viscosity of aqueous absorbents are essential for the measurement of other physicochemical properties such as diffusivity, gas solubility, and reaction rate constants. As the kinetics are typically derived by the experiments based on mass transfer process, data of physical diffusivity and solubility of CO2 in aqueous ammonia and PZ solutions are required. However, due to the chemical reactions between CO2 and NH3/ PZ solutions, these properties are not possible to determine directly.10 It is suggested to use an “N2O analogy” to estimate the aforementioned physicochemical properties, since N2O resembles CO2 in molecular volume, configuration, and electronic structure, and it is a nonreactive gas in amine conditions.11−13 The density of aqueous ammonia solutions can be found in Perry’s Chemical Engineering handbook,14 but the temperature range is only from (−15 to 25) °C, which does not cover the important range for CO2. The viscosity of ammonia was studied by Frank et al.15 from (20 to 60) °C, but the experimental points are not numerous enough to fit an accurate correlation. The solubility of N2O in ammonia was only obtained by Qin16 from (20 to 50) °C using the same experimental system as this work.

Density and Viscosity. The densities of aqueous solutions were measured by using a DMA 4500 density meter in this work. The measuring range for density is (0 to 3) g·cm−3, for temperature (0 to 90) °C, and for pressure (0 to 10) bar. The accuracy in the density measurements was ± 0.00005 g·cm−3 and for temperature ± 0.03 °C. The repeatability standard deviation of density is 0.00001 g·cm−3 and for temperature 0.01 °C. The viscosities of aqueous solutions were measured by using an Anton Paar PHYSICA MCR 100 rheometer with a DG26.7/ Q1-SN18602 measuring system in this work. DG26.7/Q1 is a double gap cylinder measuring system (Standard: DIN 54453) with a cup length of 42 mm and measuring gap internal and external diameters of 0.417 mm and 0.471 mm. The procedure was done by filling the space of the cylinder with 3.8 mL of solution at a specific temperature. The temperature of the sample was controlled by means of a water circulation unit with the range of (5 to 80) °C and an accuracy of ± 0.01 °C. The total accuracy of viscosity given by the manufacturer is ± 0.1 %. Calibrations were done by measuring the density and the viscosity of standard solutions N1.0 and S3 (ISO 17025 Viscosity and Density Reference Standard, UKAS) in the temperature range between (293.15 and 323.15) K. The data for the calibration are given in Table 1. It can be seen that both density and viscosity from the measurements agree very well with the reference values for the

The solubility of N2O in and density and viscosity of PZ solutions were measured by Derks et al.,10 Sun et al.,17 and Samanta and Bandyopadhyay.18 However, their data do not cover the entire temperature and concentration range of this work, and comparisons have been made between the results of theirs and this work under the same conditions. The solubility of N2O in and density and viscosity of NH3/PZ mixtures have not been presented until now. In this study, the solubilities of N2O in and densities and viscosities of aqueous solutions of ammonia, PZ, and aqueous blends of ammonia and PZ have been measured at (283.15, 293.15, 303.15, 313.15, and 323.15) K, covering (1 to 30) mol % ammonia, (0.1 to 2) mol % PZ, and some of their mixtures. The results are compared with available data in the literature. The experimental density and viscosity data were correlated using two semiempirical correlations as a function of temperature and concentration of ammonia and PZ.



EXPERIMENTAL SECTION Piperazine (> 99 % pure) and ammonia (≥ 25 wt %) were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. Distilled water was used for preparing experimental solutions. The ammonia and PZ concentrations were determined by titration against 0.2 N H2SO4 using a Metrohm 809 Titrando auto titrator. The N2O gas (99.9991 vol % pure) was supplied by AGA Gas GmbH. 2388

the compressibility factor. The amount of N2O in the liquid phase (nlN2O) can be calculated by the difference between total N2O added and the increasing of N2O in gas phase, and then the concentration of N2O (nlN2O) could be calculated. The solubility of N2O at different pressures and temperatures have been expressed as mass fraction w (kg·kg−1) in this paper and are also calculated as the distribution coefficient (m) to compare with other literature results.

standard solutions. The probable uncertainty in the measured density is about 0.01 %, and the estimated uncertainty in viscosity measurement is 0.3 %. Solubility of N2O. The N2O solubility apparatus contains a jacketed stirred glass vessel for which the volume is 7.76·10−4 m3 and a gas holding vessel made by stainless steel for which the volume is 1.17·10−3 m3. The amount of solvent added (around half of reactor) into the glass vessel was calculated by measuring the weight of solvent before and after transfer. The solution was degassed by vacuum to around 2 kPa at room temperature until vapor−liquid equilibrium in the reactor was reached. The experimental setup is shown in Figure 1. The details of the experimental apparatus and method are described by Hartono et al.19 The amount of N2O added (nN2O) was obtained by the difference of pressure before and after feeding N2O in supply vessel. In the gas phase, the amount of N2O (ngN2O) could be calculated by temperature (T), partial pressure of N2O (PN2O), and compressibility factor z of N2O after reaching equilibrium, respectively. The Peng−Robinson equation was used to calculate

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Density. The measured densities for the solutions of NH3(aq), PZ, and NH3/PZ blends are presented in Table 3. For the NH3(aq) and PZ solutions, the deviations are less than 0.05 % when compared with Perry’s handbook14 and other researchers' results10,17,18,22 under the same conditions, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. The densities of the binary and ternary mixtures decrease with increasing mole fraction of NH3, decreasing mole fraction of PZ, and increasing temperature in the mixture. The experimental density data for the binary and ternary mixtures can be fitted as functions of temperature and concentration of amine and ammonia. The principle chosen to select the form of correlation for fitting the density data is a combination of lowest average

The viscosities of the binary and ternary mixtures increase with an increasing mole fraction of NH3 or PZ and decrease with increasing temperature. The experimental viscosity data for the binary and ternary mixtures can also be fitted as functions of temperature and concentration of amine and ammonia. The principles for choosing the form of correlation for fitting the viscosity data are the same as for the density data. The form of correlation used in this work is given in eq 4.

standard deviations of the parameters, and the average absolute deviations (AADs) are listed in Table 6. The calculated viscosities from correlation eq 4 agree well with the experimental data in this paper; the AADs between the correlated and experimental data for NH3(aq), PZ solution, and NH3/PZ blended solution are about 0.012, 0.0099, and 0.022, respectively. Solubility of N2O. The measurements of solubility of N2O in this work comprise the solutions of PZ and the NH3/PZ blend; the data of NH3 (aq) have already been measured by Qin16 using the same apparatus as this work. The experimental data for solubility of N2O w (kg·kg−1) under different PN2O and T are presented in Table 7. For PZ solutions, the experimental data of distribution coefficient mN2O in this work are compared with literature data10,17,21 in Figure 7 for the same conditions. Comparisons between the distribution coefficient mN2O of NH 3 (aq), PZ, and NH3 /PZ blends, as defined in the Experimental Section above, are shown in Figure 8. The distribution coefficient mN2O in NH3(aq) is significantly lower than in water, mN2O in PZ solution is higher than in water, and the mN2O in NH3/PZ blends is between NH3(aq) and PZ solutions. The experimental results also indicated that the values of mN2O in NH3/PZ blends are very close to water data under the full temperature range from (293.15 to 323.15) K. Therefore, the mN2O equation for water could be used to estimate the values of mN2O in NH3/PZ blends if the concentration and temperature conditions are the same or similar to this work.

range (283.15 to 323.15) K. The experimental results cover the composition range (1 to 28) wt % NH3(aq), (0.1 to 1) M PZ and (1 to 10) wt % NH3/(0.1 to 0.4) M PZ blends. The densities and viscosities of the binary and ternary mixtures were correlated using two semiempirical correlations. The correlated results are in good agreement with the experimental data for all of the temperatures and concentrations studied. The solubilities of N2O in PZ solution and NH3/PZ blends were measured over the temperature range (283.15 to 323.15) K. The experimental results cover the composition range (0.1 to 1) M PZ and (1.48 to 4.4) M NH3/(0.1 to 1) M PZ blends. The distribution coefficient, mN2O, in PZ solution is significantly higher than in water, and mN2O in NH3/PZ blends is between the



CONCLUSION Densities and viscosities of NH3(aq), PZ, and NH3/PZ blended solution were measured and correlated over the temperature 2392
