Descrição
Biomethane shows good promise as a fuel for the circular economy, but it is often contaminated with CO2 that must be removed. While this is traditionally done using liquid amine adsorbents, they suffer from chemical instability and high energy costs. The EU-funded GRACE project will help design a new generation of solid sorbents which can lower costs by 40 %. Researchers will develop a new understanding of the intermolecular interactions occurring at the gas–solid interface of adsorbent surfaces, which will help synthesise new materials such as periodic mesoporous organosilica sorbents. The project will also test new shapes for sorbents to make the biogas upgrading process more efficient.
