• Corrosion and degradation in amine based post-combustion CO2 capture 

      Fytianos, Georgios (Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:98, Doctoral thesis, 2016)
      Consumption of coal is expanding, and without CO2 capture and storage (CCS) or some other advanced coal combustion system, the most emission intensive gas, CO2, will continue to worsen climate change. Among the various ...
    • Corrosion and degradation in MEA based post-combustion CO2 capture 

      Fytianos, Georgios; Ucar, Seniz; Grimstvedt, Andreas Magnar; Hyldbakk, Astrid; Svendsen, Hallvard Fjøsne; Knuutila, Hanna K. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Two of the main challenges in post-combustion CO2 capture with ethanolamine are solvent degradation and material corrosion. It has been shown that there is a correlation between degradation and corrosion. The present paper ...
    • Corrosion Evaluation of MEA Solutions by SEM-EDS, ICP-MS and XRD 

      Fytianos, Georgios; Ucar, Seniz; Grimstvedt, Andreas Magnar; Svendsen, Hallvard Fjøsne; Knuutila, Hanna K. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The target of this work is to evaluate three analytical techniques, ICP-MS, SEM-EDS and XRD, which can be applied in corrosion monitoring of ethanolamine based post-combustion CO2 capture plants. The work is based on ...
    • Degradation and corrosion inhibitors for MEA-based CO2 capture plants 

      Fytianos, Georgios; Vevelstad, Solrun Johanne; Knuutila, Hanna K (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      In amine based post-combustion CO2 capture and storage, solvent degradation and corrosion of steel materials are the main operational challenges. In this paper the focus was on minimizing degradation and corrosion by ...
    • Effect of MEA's degradation products on corrosion at CO2 capture plants 

      Fytianos, Georgios; Grimstvedt, Andreas Magnar; Knuutila, Hanna; Svendsen, Hallvard Fjøsne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Amine degradation and corrosion can be a severe operational problem in the CO2 absorption process. In this paper the effect of MEA's degradation products on corrosion is studied. Different solutions of MEA 30wt% containing ...
    • Quantitative determination of amines used in post-combustion CO2 capture process by ion chromatography 

      Fytianos, Georgios; Callot, Robin; Svendsen, Hallvard Fjøsne; Knuutila, Hanna K. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      In post-combustion CO2 capture (PCCC) with amine-based solvents, determining the amount of amine components present in the liquid phase is essential. The quantification of the solvent should be fast, accurate and simple. ...
