Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for using, as a carbon dioxide absorbent, a secondary amine having a nitrile group, that is, a 3-(alkylamino)propionitrile compound. The absorbent based on the 3-(alkylamino)propionitrile compound and the carbon dioxide absorption method and separation method using same, according to the present invention, not only have an excellent carbon dioxide absorption capacity and a rapid carbon dioxide absorption rate, but also allow absorbent regeneration even at a considerably low temperature compared with a conventional alkanolamine-based absorbent and thus can significantly reduce the entire energy consumption required for an absorption process, and can also prevent recovered carbon dioxide from being contaminated with moisture and absorbent vapor, owing to the low regeneration temperature.
