Preliminary Performance Assessment of Intensified Stripper in Post-combustion Carbon Capture through Modelling and Simulation

摘要

Intensified stripper used in chemical absorption process based on rotating packed bed (RPB) technology was studied through modelling and simulation in this paper. The model was developed by dynamically linking Aspen Plus~R rate-based model with visual Fortran. Suitable correlations for RPB were implemented in Fortran to replace the default correlations in Aspen Plus~R rate-based model. The standalone stripper model was validated with experimental data. The paper compared standalone intensified stripper with conventional stripper using MEA solvent. The result shows 9.69 times size reduction. Therefore PI has great potential for use in carbon capture application.
