Atmospheric Carbon Capture: A Review On Current Technologies And Analysis Of Energy Consumption For Various Direct Air Capture (Dac) Systems, Jennifer Perskin
Atmospheric Carbon Capture: A Review On Current Technologies And Analysis Of Energy Consumption For Various Direct Air Capture (Dac) Systems, Jennifer Perskin
Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses
Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture is a crucial approach to reducing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to directly combat climate change. Major components of the technology to desublimate CO2 at cryogenic temperatures are mature and have the potential to be applied to build large Arctic/Antarctic direct-air CO2 capture plants. Pressure swing adsorption another gas separation technique used in industry today that can be modified for atmospheric carbon capture. The discussion of energy consumption for cryogenic and combined direct air capture systems is explored in this study. The investigation of precompression of atmospheric air for a direct-air capture …
Experimental And Numerical Analysis Of A Commercial Phase Change Material Melting At Different Inclinations, Andrew Heiles
Experimental And Numerical Analysis Of A Commercial Phase Change Material Melting At Different Inclinations, Andrew Heiles
Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses
The study of various phase change materials (PCM), experimentally and numerically, have been completed over the past several years to address their feasibility and potential when used in latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems for a variety of potential applications. Previous studies have investigated changes into the type of PCM used in the system as well as the system configuration, ranging from boundary conditions to internal and external geometries and orientations of the system. The present study focused on conducting experiments at different inclination angles and isothermal wall temperatures with the organic PCM PureTemp37, and continued with a numerical …
