Abstract
Abstract An aqueous organic amine acid gas scrubbing system, particularly an aqueous N-methyldiethanolamine or diethanolamine acid gas scrubbing system having incorporated therein (1) a compound or mixture of compounds having the formula ##STR1## wherein n is an integer from 1 to 3, m is an integer from 2 to a number sufficient to yield a molecular weight of about 800, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are each independently selected from the group consisting of --H, --C n' H 2n' OH, --C n' H 2n'+1 , --C n' H 2n' N(R 3 )R 4 wherein n' is an integer from 1 to 2 and wherein R 1 -R 3 and R 2 -R 4 may be joined to form cyclic amines when n is 2; said compound being present in about 10 to about 2000 parts per million parts of treating solution; (2) copper or a copper ion yielding compound in from 0 to 1000 ppm; and (3) sulfur or a sulfur atom yielding compound in from 0 to 1000 ppm.
