Fy. Jou et al., Vapor-liquid equilibria in the system ethanethiol plus methyldiethanolamine plus water in the presence of acid gases, J CHEM EN D, 44(4), 1999, pp. 833-835
This investigation was carried out to determine the solubility of ethanethi
ol in a methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) solution. Measurements were made in the
absence of acid gases, H2S and CO2, with individual acid gases present, an
d with mixtures of acid gases present. Experiments with an aqueous solution
of 50 mass % MDEA were carried out at 40 and 70 degrees C. The total press
ure for most of the experiments was 6890 kPa, which was maintained by metha
ne. Partial pressures of ethanethiol ranged from 0.2 to 15 kPa.
