Description
Summary:This project concerns the solvent development of STONVENT, an unknown solvent that has the potential to be used in capturing high carbon dioxide, CO2 content in natural gas which has become a crucial problem in oil and gas industry nowadays. The objectives of this work are: (1) to perform physical analysis of the STONVENT; (2) to study the effect of temperature change on the properties of STONVENT; (3) to study the effect of concentration change on the properties of STONVENT, (4) compare the result with conventional solvent; Diethanolamine, (DEA) and (5) to study the characteristic of STONVENT before and after absorbing CO2 through Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) Analysis.. This project is an experimental based project and for the time period given, the experimental work will cover physical analysis which consists of the determination of density, refractive index and surface tension and the effect of temperature change and concentration change on the STONVENT. For FYP II, the equipment has been identified and the experimental procedure has been concluded. Thus from the experimental data obtained, it been further analyzed and appropriate discussion been made.
