Leading UK-based carbon capture solutions provider Carbon Clean has been awarded a government innovation grant alongside its two partners – Doosan Babcock and Newcastle University – for the testing of two technologies that could reduce the cost of carbon capture.
Worth £600,000, the funding comes from the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) CCUS Innovation 2.0 programme, part of the BEIS £1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP).
The technologies to be tested together include a non-aqueous solvent (NAS) and a rotating packed bed (RPB) absorber and stripper.
As part of the tests, the NAS and RPBs will be benchmarked against conventional packed bed absorbers and regenerators, in addition to a parametric test campaign which aims to identify optimal operating conditions for a range of simulated industrial flue gases.
