| Summary: | To find suitable absorbents for ship-based carbon capture, the absorption and desorption properties of four mixed aqueous amines based on BZA were investigated, and the results indicated that BZA-AEP had the best absorption and desorption performance. Then, the absorption and desorption properties of different mole ratios of BZA-AEP were tested. The results showed that the average CO<sub>2</sub> absorption rate had the highest value at the mole ratio of BZA to AEP of three. The average CO<sub>2</sub> desorption rate had the maximum value at the mole ratio of BZA to AEP of one. Three fitted models of the absorption and desorption performance of BZA-AEP based on the test data were obtained. The p-values of all three models were less than 0.0001. Considering the performance and material cost, the BZA-AEP mole ratio of 1.5 is more appropriate for ship carbon capture. Compared with MEA, the average CO<sub>2</sub> absorption rate increased by 48%, the CO<sub>2</sub> desorption capacity increased by 120%, and the average CO<sub>2</sub> desorption rate increased by 161%.
