โฆ Synopsis
The problem of diethanolamine (DEA) degradation in gas-treating processes was quantified through a detailed kinetic study. This reaction was found to be catalyzed by COz, and degradation occurs in a successive manner to 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)oxazolidone-2, to N,N,N'-tris(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine and then to N,Nf-bis(2-hydroxy-ethy1)piperazine. A reaction mechanism consistent with these observations was proposed and tested through kinetic analyses. A satisfactory kinetic model which can be of practical use was derived.

The degradation kinetics and mechanism of a potent new cephalosporin, cefotaxime sodium, in aqueous solution were investigated at pH 0-10 at 25 degrees and an ionic strength of 0.5. The degradation rates were determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography and were observed to follow pseudo first-
