Abstract

With funding from the U.S. Department of Energy/NETL, the project’s prime contractor Linde is leading the charge to test three technologies to see which are most effective at reducing aerosol particle concentrations in flue gas. That will in turn reduce the amount of amine solvent lost when capturing carbon. Losing less solvent lowers costs and makes it more economically feasible to roll out carbon capture technology on a wider scale. Cost is one of the greatest barriers to greenhouse gas reduction.
