The ’nitrosamine’ challenge
• NOx can act as nitrosation agent in ACIDIC environment –=> absorber is BASIC=> absorber is BASIC
• Primary amines do not form stable nitrosamines –=> MEA is primary
• Primary nitrosamines decompose rapidly in ACIDIC• Primary nitrosamines decompose rapidly in ACIDIC environment –
=>absorber is BASIC

Conclusions
• Comparing facilities is troubled by not looking in the same way• Which chemicals where to look (time effect) how to lookWhich chemicals, where to look (time effect), how to look
(sensing technology)
• More research is needed to investigate degradation products (lab g g p (scale) to complete the mass balance.
• Toxicology relevant chemicals should be more investigated in detail (where to find, stability) to optimize countermeasures.
• The age of fate of relevant chemicals in the environment and in t h ld b i ti t d t t k i t t f th t t lwaste should be investigated to take into account for the total
burden of capture facilities.
