Kurzbeschreibung (Englisch)

Capture of CO2 by adsorption from the flue gas of power- and industrial- plants

Abstract (Deutsch)

The main objective of this project is the investigation and development of an adsorption-based process for|the recovery of carbon dioxide from flue gas produced in industrial- and power- plants. The development of|this post-combustion capture scheme can be applied in the framework of urea or methanol production with|the goal of increasing the production capacity and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Thereby two main|research directions will be investigated in parallel: the choice of an adequate adsorbent considering commercial as well as novel materials and the design and development of efficient process cycles, including an optimal regeneration strategy based on temperature swing adsorption.
