Intensification of CO2 capture processes (CAPTIN-2).

Greenhouse gas emissions needs to be urgently reduced to avoid severe climate change and its catastrophic consequences. In this respect, the use of renewable energy sources and increasing efficiency of largescale chemical production processes are essential steps. On the short term carbon capture of exhaust CO2 from these processes is required to reduce greenhouse gas emission. The high cost en technological limits of available CO2 capture technologies prevent a successful industrial implementation. Consequently, this CAPTIN project has the goal to develop new, efficient, sustainable and economic feasible technologies for carbon capture and utilization.
