Development of Post-combustion CO2 Capture System Using Amine-impregnated Solid Sorbent

Abstract

A new synthetic polyamine was found as a suitable compound for amine-impregnated solid sorbent through screening of amine compounds with the aid of density functional theory calculations. CO2 capture performance of the sorbent was evaluated on a lab-scale CO2 capture system. The solid sorbent was excellently regenerable even at low temperature condition. Then, Bench-scale demonstration will be started on current project, using the sorbent developed by Research Institute of Innovative Technology for the Earth (RITE) and moving bed system of Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd (KHI).
