The rates of absorption of CO 2 into water and 0.1 kmol/m 3 aqueous solutions of MEA, DEA and AMP were measured in a stirred cell with a flat gas‐liquid interface in the presence of fine activated carbon particles. Experiments showed that the rates of absorption increased significantly with increases in the loading of activated carbon up to about 6 kg/m 3 and thereafter remained constant.
