HHPY exhibits similar reactivity toward CO₂ to PZ, but with improved aqueous solubility. The α-methyl-substituted MHHPY favours HCO₃− formation, but MHHPY exhibits comparable CO₂ absorption capacity to conventional amines MEA and DEA. MHHPY show improved reactivity compared to the conventional α-methyl-substituted primary amine 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol. DMHHPY is representative of blended amine systems, and its reactivity highlights the advantages of such systems. HHPZ is relatively unreactive towards CO₂. The CO₂ absorption capacity CA (mol CO2/mol amine) and initial rates of absorption RIA (mol CO₂/mol amine min−1) for each reactive diamine are determined: PZ: CA =0.92, RIA=0.045; 2,6-DMPZ: CA =0.86, RIA=0.025; 2,5-DMPZ: CA =0.88, RIA=0.018; HHPY: CA =0.85, RIA=0.032; MHHPY: CA =0.86, RIA=0.018; DMHHPY: CA =1.1, RIA=0.032; and HHPZ: no reaction. Calculations at the B3LYP/6-31+G** and MP2/6-31+G** calculations show that the substitution patterns of the heterocyclic diamines affect carbamate stability, which influences hydrolysis rates.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 15:00:20 AEST ]]> Iron and vegetarian diets https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19355 Wed 11 Apr 2018 11:43:16 AEST ]]> "m=1" coatings for neutron guides https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17629 Wed 11 Apr 2018 11:37:39 AEST ]]> Zinc and vegetarian diets https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19358 Wed 11 Apr 2018 11:20:47 AEST ]]> Kinetic absorption of CO2 into blended ammonia (NH3) solutions with a new cyclic amine 4-Aminomethyltetrahydropyran (4-AMTHP) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46161 2 absorption rates in ammonia-based absorbents via addition of fast reacting primary/secondary amines are of great interest. In this work, a new substituted cyclic amine 4-aminomethyltetrahydropyran (4-AMTHP) was blended with aqueous ammonia to increase its reactivity toward CO2. Stopped-flow spectrophotometry was employed to investigate the underlying reaction mechanism between dissolved CO2(aq) and a series of blended NH3/4-AMTHP solutions under homogeneous conditions. A comprehensive chemical model describing the blended 4-AMTHP–NH3–CO2–H2O system, which involves a total of 11 kinetic reactions and 15 species, has been developed and further evaluated to explore the experimental kinetic and CO2 mass transfer data measured from a bench-scale wetted-wall column. From the resulting data, it was demonstrated here that the addition of a small quantity of ∼0.3 M 4-AMTHP into the 3 M NH3/0.9 M CO2 solution can effectively increase the kinetic reactivity during CO2 absorption into aqueous ammonia solutions, resulting in a ∼50% increase in mass transfer.]]> Wed 07 Dec 2022 14:17:24 AEDT ]]> Point Source Capture of Methane Using Ionic Liquids in Packed Bed Absorbers/Strippers: Experimental and Modelling https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55238 Wed 01 May 2024 15:41:08 AEST ]]> Mechanistic study of selective absorption of NO in flue gas using EG-TBAB deep eutectic solvents https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47623 2 concentration in the flue gas on denitrification performances of EG-TBAB DESs have been investigated. The highest denitrification efficiency and capacity were achieved using EG to TBAB molar ratio of 50:1 at an operation temperature of 50 °C. The O2 partial pressure in the flue gas showed no noticeable effects on NO absorption in EG-TBAB DESs. EG-TBAB DESs maintain high denitrification stability after five absorption–desorption cycles. The calculated absorption equilibrium constant (K0) and Henry’s law constant (H) showed that EG-TBAB DESs exhibited high absorption capacity for NO molecules, indicating that they are applicable in industrial denitrification processes. The kinetics analysis of NO absorption in EG-TBAB DESs indicated that EG-TBAB DESs could effectively absorb NO and the absorption of NO was strongly influenced by mass transfer.]]> Tue 24 Jan 2023 13:55:42 AEDT ]]> Possible errors in the analysis of lactic acid and volatile fatty acids in the gastrointestinal tracts of pigs and chickens (letter) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:185 Thu 25 Jul 2013 09:09:31 AEST ]]> Insights into the Chemical Mechanism for CO2(aq) and H+ in Aqueous Diamine Solutions - An Experimental Stopped-Flow Kinetic and H-1/C-13 NMR Study of Aqueous Solutions of N,N-Dimethylethylenediamine for Postcombustion CO2 Capture https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49925 9.0 (k7 = 6.99 × 103 M–1·s–1). Below this pH, the formation of protonated monocarbamic acid (DMEDACOOH2) via the pathway involving DMEDAH+ and CO2(aq) becomes active and contributes to the kinetics despite the 107-fold decrease in the rate constant between the two pathways. 1H and 13C NMR spectra as a function of decreasing pH (increasing HCl concentration) at 25.0 °C have been evaluated here to confirm the protonation events in DMEDA. Calculations of the respective DMEDA nitrogen partial charges have also been undertaken to support the NMR protonation study. A comparison of the DMEDA kinetic constants with the corresponding data for piperazine (PZ) reveals that despite the larger basicity of DMEDA, the enhanced and superior kinetic performance of PZ with CO2(aq) above its predicted Bronsted reactivity is not observed in DMEDA.]]> Thu 15 Jun 2023 11:34:48 AEST ]]> An FTIR spectroscopic study on the effect of molecular structural variations on the CO<sub>2</sub> absorption characteristics of heterocyclic amines https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12609 2 and piperidine, as well as commercially available functionalised piperidine derivatives, for example, those with methyl-, hydroxyl- and hydroxyalkyl substituents, has been investigated. The chemical reactions between CO2 and the functionalised piperidines were followed in situ by using attenuated total reflectance (ATR) FTIR spectroscopy. The effect of structural variations on CO2 absorption was assessed in relation to the ionic reaction products identifiable by IR spectroscopy, that is, carbamate versus bicarbonate absorbance, CO2 absorption capacity and the mass-transfer coefficient at zero loading. On absorption of CO2, the formation of the carbamate derivatives of the 3- and 4-hydroxyl-, 3- and 4-hydroxymethyl-, and 4-hydroxyethyl-substituted piperidines were found to be kinetically less favourable than the carbamate derivatives of piperidine and the 3- and 4-methyl-substituted piperidines. As the CO2 loading of piperidine and the 3- and 4-methyl- and hydroxyalkyl-substituted piperidines exceeded 0.5 moles of CO2 per mole of amine, the hydrolysis of the carbamate derivative of these amines was observed in the IR spectra collected. From the subset of amines analysed, the 2-alkyl- and 2-hydroxyalkyl-substituted piperidines were found to favour bicarbonate formation in the reaction with CO2. Based on IR spectral data, the ability of these amines to form the carbamate derivatives was also established. Computational calculations at the B3LYP/6-31+G** and MP2/6-31+G** levels of theory were also performed to investigate the electronic/steric effects of the substituents on the reactivity (CO2 capture performance) of different amines, as well as their carbamate structures. The theoretical results obtained for the 2-alkyl- and 2-hydroxyalkyl-substituted piperidines suggest that a combination of both the electronic effect exerted by the substituent and a reduction in the exposed area of the nitrogen atom play a role in destabilising the carbamate derivative and increasing its susceptibility to hydrolysis. A theoretical investigation into the structure of the carbamate derivatives of these amines revealed shorter N-C bond lengths and a less-delocalised electron distribution in the carboxylate moiety.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:17:28 AEDT ]]> Chlorination of the Cu(110) surface and copper nanoparticles: a density functional theory study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17931 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:56:36 AEDT ]]> Modelling and control of nitrogen partial pressure for prophylaxis and treatment of air embolism https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30846 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:33:54 AEDT ]]> The fundamentals of post-combustion capture https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27741 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:27:46 AEDT ]]> CO₂ absorption into aqueous amine blended solutions containing monoethanolamine (MEA), N,N-dimethylethanolamine (DMEA), N,N-diethylethanolamine (DEEA) and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) for post-combustion capture processes https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27484 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:25:38 AEDT ]]> A diamine-based integrated absorption-mineralization process for carbon capture and sequestration: energy savings, fast kinetics, and high stability https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36515 Mon 25 May 2020 14:00:47 AEST ]]> Development and Evaluation of a Novel Method for Determining Absorbent Composition in Aqueous Ammonia-Based CO2 and SO32- and SO42- Loaded Capture Process Solutions via FT-IR Spectroscopy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42598 Fri 26 Aug 2022 12:17:41 AEST ]]> Abatement of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Ventilation Air Methane (VAM) Using Ionic Liquids: A Review of Experimental Methods and Modelling Approaches https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51081 Fri 18 Aug 2023 09:32:00 AEST ]]>
