Enhancing absorption performance of co2 by amine solution through the spiral wired channel in concentric circular membrane contactors

The CO2 absorption rate by using a Monoethanolamide (MEA) solution through the spiral wired channel in concentric circular membrane contactors under both concurrent-flow and countercurrent-flow operations was investigated experimentally and theoretically. The one-dimensional mathematical modeling eq...
