  2. 1. The chemical nature of CO2 adsorption in zeolite A

    Author : Przemyslaw Rzepka; Niklas Hedin; Webley Paul; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CO2 adsorption; flue gas CO2 capture; biogas upgrading; zeolite |NaK|-A; physisorption; chemisorption; kinetic separation; in situ diffraction; synchrotron XRD; NPD; NMR; IR; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : The climate changes are accelerated by increasing levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere connected to the fossil-fuel-based energy system. Substantial reforms of the system are needed immediately and could include the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. READ MORE

  4. 2. Structured zeolite adsorbents

    Author : Alessandra Mosca; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Technology; Kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : Zeolites are microporous crystalline aluminosilicates with unique properties, and therefore used in adsorption processes, for membrane separation, in catalysis, and in sensor technologies. Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) is a commonly used technology for purifying gases and is based on the ability of materials like zeolites, to selectively adsorb and desorb particular gas molecules as the gas pressure is increased and reduced, respectively.

  5. 3. Structured zeolite adsorbents for PSA applications

    Author : Alessandra Mosca; Joeri Denayer; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Technology; Kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : Zeolites are microporous crystalline aluminosilicates with unique properties, and are therefore used in adsorption processes, for membrane separation, and as catalysts. Thin zeolite films grown on honeycomb monolith supports represent a new type of material and may be used as structured catalysts and adsorbents, and improve the processes significantly. READ MORE

  6. 4. Optimization of structured adsorbents for gas separation processes

    Author : Fateme Rezaei; Alirio Rodrigues; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Technology; Kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : Conventional gas separation processes using packed beds of beads or granules suffer from high pressure drop and mass transfer resistance when higher throughputs are required, leading to lower productivity and recovery and higher power consumption. This restricts their application to low throughputs and makes them less attractive compared to other processes for large volume production and high productivity. READ MORE

  7. 5. Bio-SNG from Thermal Gasification - Process Synthesis, Integration and Performance

    Author : Stefan Heyne; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; process integration; process modelling; performance indicators; biomass; energy systems; synthetic natural gas; gasification;

    Abstract : Biomethane or synthetic natural gas (Bio-SNG) produced from gasified renewable woody biomass is a promising option for replacing fossil natural gas. The complete interchangeability with natural gas in all its conventional applications such as in the power generation, transportation and chemical industry sector is of particular interest. READ MORE
