Update on Mixed-salt Technology Development for CO2 Capture from Post-combustion Power Stations

Systems Analysis of Ionic Liquids for Post-combustion CO2 Capture at Coal-fired Power Plants

The main objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility and costs of ionic liquid (IL)-based CO2 capture systems at pulverized coal-fired (PC) power plants. The IL selected for this assessment is trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium 2-cyanopyrrolide ([P66614][2-CNpyr]), achieving a 1:1 and reversible chemical reaction between [2-CNpyr] and CO2. A multi-stage equilibrium-based modeling fra...

Energy Savings Potential through Waste Heat Recovery from Flue Gas for Post Combustion Co2 Capture

Flue gas from a plant using fossil fuels contains CO2. Thus power/process plants using fossil fuels contribute to climate change if CO2 in flue gas is not captured. The process of CO2 capture from flue gas is called „postcombustion‟ CO2 capture. Existing plants may be retrofitted with this process to minimize CO2 emission. Amine solutions are mostly used for this process to scrub the flue gas. ...

A computational investigation on the structural features of alkanolamine solvents for CO2 capture process from power plant flue gas

Adsorption Performance Indicator for Power Plant CO2 Capture on Graphene Oxide/TiO2 Nanocomposite

This study presents the adsorption performance indicator for the evaluation of thermal power plant CO2 capture on mesoporous graphene oxide/TiO2 nanocomposite. To begin, this adsorbent was synthesized and characterized using N2 adsorption-desorption measurements (BET and BJH methods), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microsc...

Chemical Capture of CO2 by Glycine Salt Solution

The role of carbon dioxide in global warming is one of the contemporary environmental issues and it is, therefore, necessary to have available technology to capture the released CO2 into the atmosphere. Amino acids have the same amine functionality as alkanolamines with similar behavior towards CO2 absorption. The solubility of carbon dioxide in potassium glycinate (KG) solutions with different...
