To study the desorption property of two mixed solutions, with MDEA as the absorbent, and MEA and PG as the additives, membrane desorption tests were carried out on their CO2-rich solutions. Based on the desorption effects of above two adsorption solutions, the desorption rate and speed of CO2 were researched under different operation conditions. Results show that the desorption rate of MDEA+MEA is higher than that of MDEA+ PG at the same desorption time; at the same concentration of adsorption solutions, the desorption effectiveness of MDEA+PG is better. High desorption temperature and high N2 flow rate are beneficial to the increase of CO2 desorption rate, which accelerate the desorption process. The increase in flow rate of CO2-rich solutions would lead to the decrease in desorption rate of CO2. To obtain the optimal desporption performance, it is suggested taking MDEA+MEA as the absorbent, and simultaneously adopting the following process parameters:desorption temperature 50℃, flow rate of CO2-rich solution 0.89×10-3 m3/s, and N2 flow rate 150 mL/min.
