Description

The recipient will conduct bench-scale testing of a novel, transformative direct air capture (DAC) process using amino acids and guanidines compounds. The project's primary objective is to elevate the technology from a research state to an experimentally demonstrated proof-of-concept level to assist the U.S. Department of energy (DOE) office of fossil energy and carbon management (fecm) in achieving the carbon negative shot target of under $100/net metric ton (tonne) carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2E) removed (i.e., both capture and storage), by 2031. Main project tasks include program management and planning, DE-risking sorbent costs, development of transformative liquid-solid separation process, contactor design and optimization of carbon dioxide (CO2) absorption, and advanced desorption processes to reduce thermal energy requirements.
