ABSTRACT:
A method for removing dissolved solids or sludge from amine absorbing solutions for acidic gas in gas sweetening systems is provided comprising contacting a stream of regenerated absorbing solution with CO.sub.2 such that the sludge forms a precipitate and removing the precipitate from the absorbing solution. The stream of absorbing solution may then be returned to a regenerator for removal of CO.sub.2 or returned to the gas sweetening system with the regenerated absorbing solution.
