Thesis Overview

The project titled "Optimization of Carbon Capture Techniques in Industrial Processes using Absorption Technology" aims to address the pressing need for efficient and sustainable methods to reduce carbon emissions in industrial processes. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies have gained significant attention as a promising approach to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change. Among the various CCS methods, absorption technology stands out as a feasible and effective solution for capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial flue gases. The research will focus on optimizing absorption technology for carbon capture in industrial processes, with the ultimate goal of enhancing capture efficiency, reducing energy consumption, and minimizing environmental impact. By improving the performance of absorption systems, the project seeks to make CCS more economically viable and environmentally friendly for industrial applications. Key aspects of the research will include investigating the underlying principles of absorption technology, evaluating different absorbent materials and solvents, optimizing process parameters, and assessing the overall performance of the carbon capture system. Advanced modeling and simulation techniques will be employed to analyze the complex interactions within the absorption process and identify opportunities for enhancement. Moreover, the project will explore innovative strategies for integrating carbon capture systems into existing industrial infrastructure, considering factors such as process compatibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. By developing tailored solutions for specific industrial applications, the research aims to facilitate the widespread adoption of absorption technology for carbon capture. Overall, the project on the "Optimization of Carbon Capture Techniques in Industrial Processes using Absorption Technology" represents a critical step towards achieving sustainable industrial practices and reducing carbon emissions. Through a comprehensive research approach combining theoretical analysis, experimental validation, and techno-economic assessment, the study seeks to contribute valuable insights and practical solutions to the field of carbon capture and storage.
