DISPLACE Technology to Efficiently Decarbonize Steel Industry

DISPLACE Technology to Efficiently Decarbonize Steel Industry

This paper presents the application of an innovative adsorption process called DISPLACE to capture CO2 from the steel plant flue gases. In this process, the CO2 is adsorbed onto the sorbent due to high partial pressures of CO2 which is then displaced by H2O adsorption on shared adsorption sites. The process is for the first time applied to steel plant, therefore a preliminary process optimization must be carried out focusing on the feed pressure as main parameter: the higher the pressure, the...

CO2 MEA Capture: A Gaussian Process-Based Global Sensitivity Analysis

CO2 MEA Capture: A Gaussian Process-Based Global Sensitivity Analysis

In this work, we present a variance-based global sensitivity analysis (GSA) using Gaussian process (GP) surrogate models to calculate the semi-analytic Sobol’ indices for a carbon dioxide (CO2), post-combustion capture (PCC) process. Using the open-source ROM-COMMA software library, the generated GP surrogate model enables accurate process output prediction, and calculation of the semi-analytic Sobol’ indices for GSA. We apply this methodology to a case study of a CO2 PCC process with 30 wt.%...

Preliminary Techno-Economic Evaluation of Blast Furnace Gas Utilisation with Ca-Cu looping Cycle Integrated with CO2 Separation by Partial Condensation

Preliminary Techno-Economic Evaluation of Blast Furnace Gas Utilisation with Ca-Cu looping Cycle Integrated with CO2 Separation by Partial Condensation

The iron and steel (I&S) industry, an energy-intensive sector and one of the significant contributors to global CO2 emissions accounted for approximately 2.6 Gt of direct CO2 emissions in 2019. BFG has a higher ratio of CO and CO2 compared to other I&S off-gases (coke oven gas and basic oxygen furnace gas). On the other hand, BFG has lower LHV than the other two off-gases due to higher N2 and CO2 concentrations. Therefore, effective CO2 removal from BFG is more cost-effective than...
