Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a gas-liquid contact systems, methods, and solvents, including carbon dioxide capture system and method for the capture of CO 2 .
- CO 2 capture processes can be divided into three main categories: post-combustion, pre-combustion, and oxy-combustion.
- Post-combustion carbon dioxide capture is based on chemical absorption, a mature technology, and easily retrofitted to existing industrial plants.
- Absorptive CO 2 Capture (ACC) is widely embraced to mitigate CO 2 emission, but it is energy-intensive and expensive to implement commercially.
- the emissions from a process plant are passed through an absorber where the solvent absorbs the carbon dioxide.
- the solvent is then regenerated by heating in a regenerator to separate the absorbed CO 2 .
- the solvent can be reused in the absorber, and the CO 2 gas is stored and sent for further utilization.
- Conventional plants for CO 2 are energy intensive. Hence it is necessary to reduce the energy consumption pattern of CO 2 capture using a novel eco-friendly solvent.
- the CO 2 capture facility enables screening of efficient and low energy consumption capture of CO 2 using deep eutectic solvent (DES).
- the hydrophobic DES comprises a hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and a hydrogen bond donor (HBD) in different molar ratios. The selection of ratio is based on its activity coefficient.
- HBA hydrogen bond acceptor
- HBD hydrogen bond donor
- the chemistry of the interaction mechanism between DES and CO 2 needs exploration.
- This facility provides a technical reference for applying new solvents developed in the laboratory to practical industrial processes. This setup is a part of research efforts to improve the solvent's CO 2 absorption capacity and reduce undesired product/contaminants formation with an optimal design process to operate at maximum efficiency.
- C0 2 capture needs an effective and sustainable technology.
- the existing technology for CO 2 capture is based on various solvents and processes, such as amine-based solutions, amino acid salt, ammonia solution, carbonate solution, ionic liquid, microencapsulated and membrane absorption, nanofluids and phenoxide salt solution and phase changing absorbent, Amine- and NH 3 -based absorbents are widely used but associated with high regeneration cost, corrosiveness, reagent loss and secondary pollution caused by NH 3 escape. Phase-changing absorbents are gaining attention due to their lower price and energy penalty. Adding nanoparticles to solvents could improve CO 2 absorption performance and reduce energy requirements.
- Chemical solvents such as activated MDEA, enable CO 2 removal and improves the purity of the produced CO 2 -rich stream.
- New, cheaper solvents need to be developed before the implementation of the laboratory studies. Special efforts are being made in the following areas: (1) Increasing reaction rates, absorption capacity, reducing solvent circulation rates and equipment sizes; (2) Reducing the reaction enthalpy and reducing regeneration energy required in the desorption process, and (3) Improving the thermal stability and resistance to oxidative degradation, reducing makeup solvents and extra process on solvent waste.
- amine solvents categorized as simple alkanolamines and sterically hindered amines.
- Simple alkanolamines include MEA, DEA and MDEA (primary, secondary and tertiary amine) solvents.
- MEA simple alkanolamine
- MDEA primary, secondary and tertiary amine
- PZ piperazine
- Blending amines at different proportions also provides another degree of freedom to estimate the selectivity of the solvent, which can optimize separation performance and reduce the cost of the carbon capture process.
- Mangalapally and Hasse have tested novel solvent mixtures of PZ and carried out pilot plant trials.
- Amino acid salt (AAS) based systems like amine -based systems, capture CO 2 faster.
- AAS achieve high cyclic loading, have a high resistance to oxidative degradation, are environmentally benign and have low binding energy.
- Ammonia-based systems including aqueous ammonia and chilled ammonia, are considered alternative solvents for CO 2 capture.
- Aqueous carbonate solutions mainly potassium carbonate (K 2 CO 3 )
- K 2 CO 3 solvent has several advantages.
- K 2 CO 3 is less volatile, less corrosive, non-toxic and has minimum oxidative degradation.
- K 2 CO 3 solutions can also capture S0 x and N0 x to produce fertilizers.
- Ionic liquids (IL) are gaining attention due to: Good thermal stability, high polarity, low CO 2 equilibrium partial pressure, and Non-toxicity.
- DES-based choline salts are one of the promising solvents for CO 2 separation.
- the viscosity of the synthesized DESs is high and has a low mass transfer rate.
- the CO 2 solubility in the DESs needs to be enhanced.
- Water as a co-solvent for the glycerol-based DES will give high viscosity and offers scope for research.
- the physicochemical properties and water effects of choline -based DESs need comparison with those of conventional ILs.
- Traditional scrubbing towers are filled with structured packing, and a counter-current flow of gas to liquid is employed.
- the present disclosure seeks to provide a system and method for designing sustainable boilers/furnaces focusing on recovery and utilization of gaseous emissions and capturing carbon dioxide.
- a system for capturing carbon dioxide includes a reactor coupled to a gas container for receiving CO 2 gas and a solvent injector for receiving solvent sample for treating the solvent with CO 2 gas in a controlled temperature and pressure.

The present disclosure relates to a gas-liquid contact systems, methods, and solvents, including carbon dioxide capture system and method for the capture of CO2.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Energy is a crucial factor in the growth of any country. Rapid advances in industrialization and transportation have caused a significant rise in emissions from point and non-point polluting sources. Carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels cause global warming. To impact of climate change can be "cured" of the air pollutants by reducing the volume and concentration of CO2 emissions must be decreased. From the pre -industrial revolution, around 1850, until 2022, the global average atmospheric CO2 concentration increased substantially from 285 to 419 ppm, and we are currently going up at the rate of 2.5 ppm per annum. The United Kingdom meteorological office estimates a global average surface temperature increase of about 0.97 to 1.21 °C from 1850 to 2022. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies target CO2 removal from large fixed-point sources. CO2 capture processes can be divided into three main categories: post-combustion, pre-combustion, and oxy-combustion. Post-combustion carbon dioxide capture is based on chemical absorption, a mature technology, and easily retrofitted to existing industrial plants. Absorptive CO2 Capture (ACC) is widely embraced to mitigate CO2 emission, but it is energy-intensive and expensive to implement commercially.
In the CO2 capture process, the emissions from a process plant are passed through an absorber where the solvent absorbs the carbon dioxide. The solvent is then regenerated by heating in a regenerator to separate the absorbed CO2. The solvent can be reused in the absorber, and the CO2 gas is stored and sent for further utilization. Conventional plants for CO2 are energy intensive. Hence it is necessary to reduce the energy consumption pattern of CO2 capture using a novel eco-friendly solvent.
The CO2 capture facility enables screening of efficient and low energy consumption capture of CO2 using deep eutectic solvent (DES). The hydrophobic DES comprises a hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and a hydrogen bond donor (HBD) in different molar ratios. The selection of ratio is based on its activity coefficient. The chemistry of the interaction mechanism between DES and CO2 needs exploration. This facility provides a technical reference for applying new solvents developed in the laboratory to practical industrial processes. This setup is a part of research efforts to improve the
solvent's CO2 absorption capacity and reduce undesired product/contaminants formation with an optimal design process to operate at maximum efficiency.
C02 capture needs an effective and sustainable technology. The existing technology for CO2 capture is based on various solvents and processes, such as amine-based solutions, amino acid salt, ammonia solution, carbonate solution, ionic liquid, microencapsulated and membrane absorption, nanofluids and phenoxide salt solution and phase changing absorbent, Amine- and NH3-based absorbents are widely used but associated with high regeneration cost, corrosiveness, reagent loss and secondary pollution caused by NH3 escape. Phase-changing absorbents are gaining attention due to their lower price and energy penalty. Adding nanoparticles to solvents could improve CO2 absorption performance and reduce energy requirements.
Chemical solvents, such as activated MDEA, enable CO2 removal and improves the purity of the produced CO2-rich stream. The production of highly pure CO2 if the carbon source is used to manufacture bulk chemicals. New, cheaper solvents need to be developed before the implementation of the laboratory studies. Special efforts are being made in the following areas: (1) Increasing reaction rates, absorption capacity, reducing solvent circulation rates and equipment sizes; (2) Reducing the reaction enthalpy and reducing regeneration energy required in the desorption process, and (3) Improving the thermal stability and resistance to oxidative degradation, reducing makeup solvents and extra process on solvent waste.
Lab scale and pilot scale tests of chemical solvents are critical in industrial applications. The most commonly used chemical solvents in carbon capture are amine solvents, categorized as simple alkanolamines and sterically hindered amines. Simple alkanolamines include MEA, DEA and MDEA (primary, secondary and tertiary amine) solvents. Recently cyclic diamines, especially piperazine (PZ), have been proposed to improve the performance of MEA as PZ enhances reaction rate, higher absorption capacity and resistance to thermal and oxidative degradation. Blending amines at different proportions also provides another degree of freedom to estimate the selectivity of the solvent, which can optimize separation performance and reduce the cost of the carbon capture process. Mangalapally and Hasse have tested novel solvent mixtures of PZ and carried out pilot plant trials.
Amino acid salt (AAS) based systems, like amine -based systems, capture CO2 faster. AAS achieve high cyclic loading, have a high resistance to oxidative degradation, are environmentally benign and have low binding energy. Ammonia-based systems, including aqueous ammonia and chilled ammonia, are considered alternative solvents for CO2 capture. Aqueous carbonate solutions, mainly potassium carbonate (K2CO3), have increased recently. Compared to amine -based solutions, K2CO3 solvent has several advantages. K2CO3 is less volatile, less corrosive, non-toxic and has
minimum oxidative degradation. K2CO3 solutions can also capture S0x and N0x to produce fertilizers. Ionic liquids (IL) are gaining attention due to: Good thermal stability, high polarity, low CO2 equilibrium partial pressure, and Non-toxicity.
A new class of ILs, Deep eutectic solvents, possess most of the properties of ILs and advantages in terms of economic benefits. DES-based choline salts are one of the promising solvents for CO2 separation. The viscosity of the synthesized DESs is high and has a low mass transfer rate. The CO2 solubility in the DESs needs to be enhanced. Water as a co-solvent for the glycerol-based DES will give high viscosity and offers scope for research. The physicochemical properties and water effects of choline -based DESs need comparison with those of conventional ILs. Traditional scrubbing towers are filled with structured packing, and a counter-current flow of gas to liquid is employed.
In the view of the forgoing discussion, it is clearly portrayed that there is a need to have a system and method for capturing carbon dioxide.
