Fy. Jou et Ae. Mather, Solubility of methanethiol and ethanethiol in a diethanolamine solution inthe presence of acid gases, J CHEM EN D, 45(6), 2000, pp. 1096-1099
The solubility of methanethiol and ethanethiol in an aqueous solution of 35
mass % diethanolamine was measured at 40 degreesC and 70 degreesC. Measure
ments were made in the absence of acid gases, H2S and CO2, with individual
acid gases present, and with mixtures of acid gases present. The total pres
sure of the experiments was 6890 kPa, which was maintained by methane. The
partial pressures of the thiols ranged from 0.1 to 15.8 kPa.
