Computational Tools for Accelerating Carbon Capture Process Development

چکیده
INTRODUCTION The U.S. Department of Energy’s Carbon Capture Simulation Initiative (CCSI) was initiated in 2010 to develop and deploy state-of-the-art computational modeling and simulation tools to accelerate the development of carbon capture technology. Recently, the first components of the CCSI Toolset have been deployed and demonstrated for the design and optimization of postcombustion solid sorbent capture systems. These computational tools provide new capabilities for integrating multi-scale modeling, optimization and uncertainty quantification to rapidly screen new concepts and, ultimately, enable smarter, more focused pilot and demonstration scale projects. The components of the CCSI Toolset that enable initial screening consist of a set of detailed process models coupled with a process synthesis and design framework to facilitate development of complete, integrated carbon capture processes using advanced optimization techniques.

Accelerating high-order WENO schemes using two heterogeneous GPUs
A double-GPU code is developed to accelerate WENO schemes. The test problem is a compressible viscous flow. The convective terms are discretized using third- to ninth-order WENO schemes and the viscous terms are discretized by the standard fourth-order central scheme. The code written in CUDA programming language is developed by modifying a single-GPU code. The OpenMP library is used for parall...
متن کاملInvestigation of carbon dioxide capture from hydrogen using the thermal pressure swing adsorption process: Central composite design modeling
In this study pre-combustion capture of carbon dioxide from hydrogen was performed using a 5A zeolite adsorber. A one column thermal pressure swing adsorption (TPSA) process was studied in the bulk separation of a CO2/H2 mixture (50:50 vol%). The adsorption dynamics of the zeolite bed were investigated by breakthrough experiments to select the suitable range for operational factors in the desig...
متن کاملAdvanced Cyberinfrastructure for Science, Engineering, and Public Policy
Progress in many domains increasingly benefits from our ability to view the systems through a computational lens, i.e., using computational abstractions of the domains; and our ability to acquire, share, integrate, and analyze disparate types of data. These advances would not be possible without the advanced data and computational cyberinfrastructure and tools for data capture, integration, ana...
متن کاملCarbon Dioxide Capture on Metal-organic Frameworks with Amide-decorated Pores
CO2 is the main greenhouse gas emitted from the combustion of fossil fuels and is considered a threat in the context of global warming. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) schemes embody a group of technologies for the capture of CO2 from power plants, followed by compression, transport, and permanent storage. Key advances in recent years include the further development of ne...
