• CO2 capture through electrified calcination in cement clinker production 

      Jacob, Ron M. (Doctoral dissertations at the University of South-Eastern Norway;170, Doctoral thesis, 2023-08-31)
      The cement industry has the second highest share of industrial CO2 emissions, and two-thirds of these emissions come from decomposing its key ingredient by the calcination reaction (CaCO3 → CaO + CO2). This thesis studied ...
    • Degradation of Aqueous 2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol for Carbon Dioxide Capture 

      Wang, Tielin (Doctoral dissertations at TUC;2013:1, Doctoral thesis; Peer reviewed, 2013-01-29)
      Absorption-stripping with aqueous 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), and especially AMP blends with other amines, such as monoethanolamine (MEA) and piperazine (PZ), presents an attractive option for carbon dioxide (CO2) ...
    • Mass transfer characteristics of CO2 absorption into liquid droplets 

      Han, Jingyi (Doctoral dissertations at TUC;2014:1, Doctoral thesis; Peer reviewed, 2014-01-21)
      CO2 capture from exhaust gases has been paid more and more attention in order to avoid global warming. One of the methods for removing CO2 from the flue gas streams is the use of absorption and aqueous alkanolamine solutions ...
    • Mass Transfer Kinetics of Carbon Dioxide into Concentrated Aqueous Solutions of Monoethanolamine 

      Ying, Jiru (Doctoral dissertations at TUC;2013:2, Doctoral thesis; Peer reviewed, 2013-02-15)
      Global warming arguments have gained more and more attention due to the new regulations of carbon dioxide (CO2) emission in the world. Monoethanolamine (MEA) has been employed as an important industrial absorbent for CO2 ...
    • Post combustion CO2 capture using aqueous amine solvents: Investigations on molecular structure-activity relationships for amine solvents 

      Arachchige, Gumunu L. Samarakoon (Doctoral dissertations at TUC;2015:3, Doctoral thesis; Peer reviewed, 2015-06-25)
      The study in this dissertation focuses on chemical absorption of CO2 using aqueous amine which is expected to be the technology of choice for early large scale deployment of postcombustion carbon capture (PCC). However ...
    • Removal of CO2 from exhaust gas 

      Øi, Lars Erik (Doctoral dissertations at TUC;2012:2, Doctoral thesis; Peer reviewed, 2012-05-30)
      Removal of CO2 from exhaust gas (CO2 capture) has become a very important topic the last years. There is international agreement to limit the emissions of greenhouse gases to reduce the global warming problem, and CO2 is ...
