Focus on the guidelines provided by BASF (Supplier of aMDEA process) related to the concentration of ingredients e.g. Amines, Activator, passivator etc. The ratios & absolute concn are very important in order to keep system under optimized & safe zone.

Will advice you to search some failure reports on net related to various amine system whcih will help you in understanding critical areas.
