Modelling of CO2 capture

Institut for Kemiteknik (DTU Kemiteknik)
The project produced innovative methods and software tools needed to simulate, validate and optimise carbon capture from, e.g., flue gas, concrete production or pharmaceutical fermentation.
Project description

The project will develop an efficient CO2 capture strategy from coal-fired power plants. Focus will be on absorption of CO2 using alkanolamines. Models based on thermodynamics, kinetics and transport processes used together with one or more commercial process simulators will be developed to test specific ideas.

Results

DTU, DONG Energy and Vattenfall forged a close partnership and set up a joint communication platform, so that new knowledge on carbon capture found in this project can be used directly in the industry's software packages. In this way, they can precisely estimate energy consumption and cost levels. The project enabled the partnership to forge interrelations to national, European and international partners.
