ABSTRACT:
Acidic gases such as carbon dioxide are removed from a normally gaseous mixture including the acidic component by contacting the gaseous mixture in an absorption zone with an acid absorbing scrubbing solution comprising a basic alkali metal compound and an activator for the compound, during which process at least a portion of the activator is converted to a cyclic urea. The solution is then transferred to the desorption zone to remove at least a portion of the absorbed acidic component. At least a portion of the partially desorbed scrubbing solution containing the cyclic urea is transferred from the desorption zone to a thermal conversion zone maintained at an elevated temperature wherein at least a portion of the cyclic urea is converted back to the activator. A portion of the scrubbing solution from the thermal conversion zone, relatively rich in the acidic component is vaporized and returned to the desorption zone, and another portion, relatively lean in the acidic component, is returned from the thermal conversion zone to the absorption zone.
