Adsorption-based CO2 capture has enjoyed considerable research attention in recent years. Most of the efforts focused on sorbent development to reduce energy penalty. However, use suitable gas–solid contacting systems is key for extracting full potential from minimize operating and capital costs accelerate commercial deployment technology. This paper reviews several reactor configurations that were proposed adsorption-based capture. The fundamental behavior adsorption different contactors...
Rising climate change ambitions require large-scale clean hydrogen production in the near term. “Blue” from conventional steam methane reforming (SMR) with pre-combustion CO2 capture can fulfil this role. This study therefore presents techno-economic assessments of a range SMR process configurations to minimize costs. Results showed that avoid up 80% emissions cheaply at 35 €/ton, but final 20% is much more expensive marginal avoidance cost around 150 €/ton. Thus, post-combustion should be...
Steam methane reforming with CO2 capture (blue hydrogen) and water electrolysis based on renewable electricity (green are commonly assumed to be the main supply options in a future hydrogen economy. However, another promising method is emerging form of natural gas pyrolysis (turquoise pure carbon as valuable by-product. To better understand potential turquoise hydrogen, this study presents techno-economic assessment molten salt process. Results show that moderate reactor pressures around 12...
This work aims to study the production of Green Ammonia (Green-NH3) from a plant solely powered with Renewable Energy (RE) sources. The main current challenge green ammonia plants is dealing energy intermittency and unpredictability RE sources while ensuring steady state avoid damaging non-flexible Haber Bosch (HB) catalytic reactor. delivers novel Techno-Economic (TE) modeling approach aiming optimize design operation pilot-scale G-NH3 plant. proposed TE model takes into consideration...
Adsorption-based post-combustion CO2 capture is enjoying significant research attention due to its potential for reductions in energy penalty, cost and environmental impact. Recent sorbent development work has focussed on polyethyleneimine (PEI) dry sorbents that exhibit attractively low regeneration requirements. The main objective of this study identify best suitable the recently published swing adsorption reactor cluster (SARC) concept. screening results four indicated two PEI be good...
The swing adsorption reactor cluster is a promising new method for post-combustion CO2 capture using synergistic combination of temperature and pressure swings. carried out by vacuum pump allows 90% only small swing, which heat pump. the to transfer from carbonation regeneration at very high efficiency, minimizing energy penalty. When applied cement plant, penalty reduces further relative coal power plant that has lower content in flue gas. Higher concentrations allow given ratio be achieved...
Cement production is responsible for about 8% of global CO2 emissions. Most these emissions originate from the process itself and thus cannot be avoided via clean energy, leaving capture as only viable solution. This study investigates prospects decarbonizing cement industry swing adsorption reactor cluster (SARC) – a new post-combustion technology that requires no integration with host process, consumes electrical energy shows competitive penalty. SARC operates by synergistically combining...
This paper experimentally demonstrates the feasibility of a novel gas switching combustion (GSC) reactor as an alternative to traditional chemical looping (CLC) process for power production with integrated CO2 capture. Whereas CLC circulates oxygen carrier material between two fluidized bed reactors, where it is exposed separate fuel and air streams, GSC concept employs single dense periodically streams. A lab-scale was operated autothermally (without any external temperature supply)...
Ambitious decarbonization pathways to limit the global temperature rise well below 2 °C will require large-scale CO2 removal from atmosphere. One promising avenue for achieving this goal is hydrogen production biomass with capture. The present study investigates techno-economic prospects of a novel biomass-to-hydrogen process configuration based on gas switching integrated gasification (GSIG) concept. GSIG applies combustion principle indirectly combust off-gas fuel pressure swing adsorption...
Turquoise hydrogen from natural gas pyrolysis has recently emerged as a promising alternative for low-carbon production with high-value pure carbon by-product.
