Thermo-environomic optimisation strategy for fuel decarbonisation process design and analysis

François Maréchal, Laurence Tock

To meet the CO2 reduction targets and ensure sustainable energy supply, the development and deploy- ment of cost-competitive innovative low-carbon energy technologies is essential. To design and evaluate the competitiveness of such complex integrated energ ...

In silico screening of carbon-capture materials

Berend Smit

One of the main bottlenecks to deploying large-scale carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) in power plants is the energy required to separate the CO 2 from flue gas. For example, near-term CCS technology applied to coal-fired power plants is projected t ...
