Project Description

Global warming is probably the greatest technological challenge we are currently facing. Towards minimizing carbon doxide emissions and reducing their atmospheric concentration, the project aims at designing, fabricating and testing a novel CO2 capture system from industrial or
atmospheric gas sources. The system will be based on a new absorbent geometry minimizing pressure losses and maximizing the duty cycle, in order to achieve capture at a reduced cost compared to existing technologies
