Description

Process Intensification for Carbon Capture and Utilization provides a comprehensive review of carbon dioxide capture and utilization (CCU) technologies from a process engineering approach, focusing on process intensification to enhance sustainability and efficient chemical process and process design. Sections provide a brief theoretical overview of CCU process design and then build to practical guidance – offering case studies and real-world applications for achieving environmental sustainability goals, reduction of carbon emissions, and the creation of value-added products from captured CO2. Chapters also highlight advancements in methodologies and tools of Process Systems Engineering (PSE) for the design of CCU processes, including outlines and worked examples.

This book is suitable for a wide audience in academia and industry interested in CCU technologies, and will be valuable for students, research scientists, engineers, and practitioners seeking an overview or in-depth knowledge on CCU. Additionally, the book's content can be used as teaching resources for advanced courses.

Key features

  • Details full methodologies and tools associated with process systems engineering (PSE) for designing sustainable CCU processes
  • Includes case studies and real-world applications of Process Intensification for carbon capture and utilization
  • Outlines key concepts for topics related to CCU processes, including global warming, sustainable carbon solutions—carbon recycling techniques, the circular economy, approaches to carbon utilization, renewable energy Integration with CCU, and process intensification
  • Discusses sustainable practices (circular economy, lifecycle assessment) and how they can be integrated into process and system design, including practical guidance and troubleshooting

Readership
