Steam cycle options for the retrofit of coal and gas power plants with postcombustion capture
Abstract In a period where fast learning-curves for capture technologies can be expected it is important that plants built as carbon capture-ready avoid becoming potential stranded assets during the period of time when the plant operates without...

MEM-BRAIN gas separation membranes for zero-emission fossil power plants
Abstract The aim of the MEM-BRAIN project is the development and integration of gas separation membranes for zero-emission fossil power plants. This will be achieved by selective membranes with high permeability for CO2, O2 or H2, so that...

Direct measurement of trapped gas bubbles by capillarity on the pore scale
Abstract To utilize aquifers without proven seal structures as a CO2 storage reservoir, CO2 should be trapped by residual gas trapping and solubility trapping as well as physical trapping by cap-rock. We investigated the mechanism of the residual...

Evaluation of the cyclic capacity of low-cost carbon adsorbents for post-combustion CO2 capture
Abstract The CO2 capture performance in post-combustion conditions (CO2 diluted in nitrogen at near atmospheric pressure) of an aminated biomass-based carbon is compared to that of two commercial activated carbons. All the evaluated samples showed...

Energy and exergy analyses for the carbon capture with the Chilled Ammonia Process (CAP)
Abstract Post-combustion carbon capture in existing power plants is a strategic technology that can reduce emissions from power generation. The proven approach is scrubbing with amines. However, its drawbacks are energy requirement, 3 to 5 MJ per kg ...

Experimental investigation of pressure drop, liquid hold-up and mass transfer parameters in a 0.5 m diameter absorber column
Abstract Packed towers are common as gas/liquid contacting units for separation processes. Several studies have been performed to measure and model pressure drop, liquid hold-up and effective mass transfer area. However, most investigations have...
