| Abstract | One of the biggest upcoming challenges concerning both environmental and energy systems engineering is the control and limitation of greenhouse gas emissions due to human activity. Fossil fuels-fired power plants are in this context one of the main contributors due to the large amounts of CO2 emitted. Different technologies are developed for capturing CO2 from such power plants. This work focuses on post-combustion CO2 capture by reactive absorption of CO2 into amine solvents like 2-ethanolamine (MEA). Two main aspects are considered: process modelling and solvent degradation since amine solvents are susceptible to degrade, inducing important additional costs. The objective is to perform a multi-objective optimization of the capture process and to propose operating conditions that will minimize the process energy consumption as well as the environmental impact due to solvent degradation. |
