Thermophysical Behavior of Carbonated Aqueous Solutions Containing Monoethanolamine and Degradation Products.

ABSTRACT: The impact of the degradation of monoethanolamine (MEA) on the physicochemical properties of the solvent is experimentally characterized. Based on the identification of three main degradation products of MEA: oxazolidine-2-one (OZD), N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine (HEEDA), and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-imidazolidinone (HEIA), new measurements for the density, surface tension, and viscosity of partially carbonated solutions containing water, MEA and those products were conducted at different MEA/degradation product molar ratios. The experiments covered a temperature range from 298.15 to 353.15 K at atmospheric pressure. The more stable and impactful degradation product, HEIA, was analyzed separately to determine its vapor pressure, as well as the density and viscosity of aqueous solutions wit
