Description

Process Intensification for Carbon Capture and Utilization provides a comprehensive review of carbon dioxide capture and utilization (CCU) technologies from a process engineering approach, focusing on the concept of process intensification to enhance sustainability and efficient chemical process and process design. This book begins with a brief theoretical overview of CCU process design, then builds up to chapters on practical guidance – offering case studies and real-world applications of process intensification for achieving environmental sustainability goals, reduction of carbon emissions, and creation of value-added products from captured CO2. The book will also highlight the advancement in development of methodologies and tools of Process Systems Engineering (PSE) for the design of CCU processes, including process design outlines and worked examples. The book is suitable for a wide audience in academia and industry interested in CCU technologies. It is valuable for students, research scientists, engineers, and practitioners seeking an overview or in-depth knowledge on CCU. Additionally, the book's content can be used as teaching resources for advanced courses.

Key features

  • Details full methodologies and tools associated with process systems engineering (PSE) for designing sustainable CCU processes
