Comparison of Physical Solvents<br />

� Purisol has the highest cap<strong>ac</strong>ity for absorption of <strong>ac</strong><strong>id</strong><br />

gases and it is the most selective; however, it is the most<br />

volatile.<br />

� Selexol is more selective than Fluor solvent, but it<br />

dissolves propane.<br />

� All solvents exhibit significant affinity for heavy paraffins,<br />

aromatics, and water.<br />

� Water absorption make them good dessicants.<br />

� The loading cap<strong>ac</strong>ity of physical solvent is much higher<br />

than amines.<br />

� From Figure: At partial pressure of H 2S 200 psia, the<br />

loading (mol H 2S/gal solvent) of MEA (20% solution) is<br />

about 11.5, and at the same time, sulfolane (physical<br />

solvent) is about 18 and sulfinol (which is a mixed<br />

solvent) is about 19.
