Carbon Capture Technology Evaluation & Design Using Process Simulation
In this technical paper titled, "Carbon Capture Technology Evaluation & Design Using Process Simulation", ProMax was used to conceptualize, select, design, and integrate components for a representative post-combustion carbon capture unit. This presentation covers a data driven analysis of comparing various solvent choices (physical vs chemical; primary vs secondary vs tertiary amines; MEA vs AMP/PZ) as well as additional key considerations (SOx removal, flue gas pre-cooling, packed vs trayed contactors, water wash systems, reboiler duty etc) that go into the end-to-end evaluation and overall robustness of a for LP carbon capture system. This presentation hopes to serve as a guideline and reference for process engineers looking to design and/or optimize such a unit.
