Project Description
The increasing emissions of greenhouse gases, particularly CO₂, pose a significant threat to global climate stability, prompting the development of more efficient carbon capture technologies. Among these, post-combustion CO₂ capture using amine-based solvents is one of the most extensively researched methods, though it is often hindered by high energy consumption and large equipment requirements. This dissertation focused on evaluating a carbon capture prototype based on CoLAB Net4CO2’s proprietary solvent-based technology. Central to the system is the NetMIX technology, which enhances absorption efficiency through oscillatory laminar flow at high Reynolds numbers. The primary objective of this work was to determine the overall mass transfer coefficient (𝐾𝐺𝑎) and CO₂ capture rate (CR) using various solvent formulations.
Main Outcomes
Evaluation of Different Solvent Formulations: Identify the most effective solvent compositions to enhance CO₂ capture rates.
Prototype Testing: Assess the performance of selected solvents under several operating conditions using the prototype unit.
