Optimization of a hybrid membrane/enzyme CO2 capture process

The firm CO2 Solutions Inc (CSI) from Québec has developed an enzyme-accelerated CO2 capture technology which may be appended to a variety of gas scrubbing equipments. Simultaneously, our Université Laval research group has been working on membrane gas phase separations using polymeric hollow fibers and mixed matrix membranes. The objective of the present Engage proposal […]

Development of a new compact configuration for enzyme-mediated carbon dioxide desorption unit based on detailed study of desorption kinetic mechanism and local-scale mass-transfer phenomena

The CO2 thermal desorption process in the stripper for the regeneration of solvents is central to the design of CO2 capture process from technical and operational standpoints, requiring huge amounts of energy and posing considerable challenges on plant operation. In order to offer an alternative environmentally-friendly and economical stripping unit, the present project aims to […]
