The applicability of 3D-printed activated carbons for their use to CO2 capture in post-combustion streams and the influence activation conditions on uptake N2 selectivity were studied. For two monoliths with same open cellular foam geometry but low high burnoff during activation, a series fixed-bed breakthrough adsorption experiments under typical conditions, wide range temperature (313 373 K),...

Life cycle impact assessment indicators are integrated for studying the process integration of renewable resources and CO2 capture and storage (CCS) in power plants. Besides the expected reduction in global warming potential (GWP), CCS induces energy and cost penalties. This paper presents a systematicmultiobjective optimisation framework for the optimal design of power plants with CO2 capture ...

Ilmenite (FeTiO3) is an important mineral, formed in igneous and metamorphic rocks, and is the main feedstock for the titanium industry. Ilmenite is also an attractive and inexpensive oxygen carrier for chemical-looping combustion (CLC), one of the most promising technologies to accomplish CO2 capture in power plants [1]. The technique uses solid metal oxides as an oxygen carrier, which transfe...

In this work we have evaluated the H2O and CO2 adsorption characteristics of Lewatit VP OC 1065 in view of the potential application of solid sorbents in post combustion CO2 capture. Here we present single component adsorption isotherms for H2O and CO2 as well as co-adsorption experiments. It was concluded that the sorbent material shows a high affinity in the adsorption of H2O. The adsorption ...
