Matching Heat Pump Configurations and Process Parameters for Cost‐Minimal Heat‐Integrated CO2 Capturing Process

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
In a CO2 absorption process, it is investigated whether the adjustment of operating parameters facilitates the integration of different closed heat pump cycles considering various refrigerants. The influence of different integration concepts and electricity prices are investigated by means of resulting total annual costs.

Performance comparison of pressure swing adsorption and amine‐based absorption for synthesis gas purification

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Comparison of PSA and amine‐based absorption for syngas purification shows that PSA offers lower energy intensity, global warming potential, and minimum selling price, making it a more sustainable option. However, absorption achieves higher syngas purity. A GREENSCOPE‐based multi‐criteria assessment guides optimal process selection.
