CarbonAssist
Simple and readily-available two-part chemical mixture which allows CO2 capture at low cost
Page last modified
April 11 2024
An inexpensive and small unit for capturing carbon dioxide that is agile and readily deployable for different applications in heavy industries, food and beverage production, chemical manufacture, medical and construction. The technology encompasses an engineering design and a novel chemical system. The chemical system is encapsulated within a unit which is a two-part solution that is readily manufactured at commercial scales. The chemical system has a longevity between 2 to 5 years depending on the application. There are 2 different designs which are focused on CO2 capture directly from air and industrial processes (pre and post combustion).
Pros & Limitations
1
Cheap CO2 capture technology from DAC & post-combustion capture (Low operating and capital expenditure)
1
Small foot print
1
Rapid rejuvenation of the absorbent, quick recycle time
1
Commercially available chemical system
1
Simple and reliable engineering design and system
1
Versatile and scalable
1
Requires waste heat with electricity to operate the unit (control systems, fan, actuators, etc)
0
Requires some level of electrical power to operate the unit
0
The unit requires to be optimised to the environment that is being deployed at (Phase enveleope - pressure, temperature)
