Аннотация:This present study covers a complex approach to study a hybrid separation technique: membrane-assisted gas absorption for CO2 capture from flue gases. It includes not only the engineering aspects of the process, particularly the cell design, flow organization, and process conditions, but also a complex study of the materials. It covers the spinning of hollow fibers with specific properties that provide sufficient mass transfer for their implementation in the hybrid membrane-assisted gas absorption technique and the design of an absorbent with a new ionic liquid—bis(2-hydroxyethyl) dimethylammonium glycinate, which allows the selective capture of carbon dioxide. In addition, the obtained hollow fibers are characterized not only by single gas permeation but with regard to mixed gases, including the transfer of water vapors. A quasi-real flue gas, which consists of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapors, is used to evaluate the separation efficiency of the proposed membrane-assisted gas absorption technique and to determine its ultimate performance in terms of the CO2 content in the product flow and recovery rate. As a result of this study, it is found that highly permeable fibers in combination with the obtained absorbent provide sufficient separation and their implementation is preferable compared to a selective but much less permeable membrane.
