Abstract :

In this work, the mathematical model of the absorption of carbon dioxide into an aqueous solution contain –ing two reactants of 2–amino–2–methyl–1–propanol (AMP) and 1,8–diamino–p–menthane (DAM) in a stirred semi–batch tank with a planar gas–liquid interface has been discussed. This model contains system of non–linear equations. Homotopy analysis method (HAM) is employed to evaluate the concentration of species by solving these non–linear equations. The analytical results are compared with numerical solutions and satisfactory agreement is noted
