Application of Breakthrough Curve Analysers in Liquid Absorbents for CO2 Capture
Reducing atmospheric CO2 concentrations remains one of the most pressing challenges in climate science and industrial decarbonization. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) has emerged as one of the most effective approaches for mitigating CO2 emissions, with several core technologies under active development: membrane separation, solid adsorption, and liquid absorption.
Liquid absorption is particularly useful due to its high efficiency and capacity for CO2 absorption. While legacy chemical solvents offer high capacity and fast absorption rates, several (e.g., KOH and ammonia) face challenges related to equipment corrosion, volatility, and safety. Today, amine-based absorbents are the most widely used due to their favorable balance of reactivity, efficiency, and scalability in industrial CO2 capture..
