RESEARCH FIELD
Carbon capture is an important technical support for realizing the “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality” goals, but there is no single carbon capture method that can independently, efficiently, economically, and energy-efficiently capture carbon dioxide (CO2). Low energy consumption, high stability, and large-scale carbon dioxide capture technologies are still blank in the world.
Attempting to meet the national carbon neutrality strategic needs, focusing on the bottlenecks and difficulties in carbon capture technology, aiming at low energy consumption, low-cost, and high-efficiency carbon capture technology, featuring carbon dioxide electrochemical carbon capture, the Research Center for New Principles and Technology of Carbon Dioxide Capture explores new principles and technology of carbon dioxide capture from the three levels of technical principle research, capture material research and development, and expanding test equipment research. The Center aims to comprehensively build China’s independently created new carbon dioxide capture technology system, helping to build an industrial innovation highland for CCUS and Industrial low-carbon and green transformation.
The research team is led by Academician Xie Heping, a Chief Scientist, forming a talent team akin to a ‘wild goose mode’, which includes one expert in the industrial field, one technical management talent, and seven scientific research backbone talents. This team is not only a research team with an interdisciplinary background in chemistry, materials, and chemical engineering, but also a professional team integrating chemical technology, materials engineering, and equipment development. The team has been deeply engaged in the field of carbon dioxide capture and utilization for more than ten years and has deployed several original research directions in the hope of innovating the principles and theories of carbon dioxide capture independently and building a brand-new technology system for carbon dioxide capture.
Due to the current bottleneck problems of high energy consumption and high cost in carbon dioxide capture, the Center will conduct in-depth research in three directions: temperature difference-driven carbon dioxide capture technology (chemical absorption method), pressure-driven carbon dioxide capture technology (membrane separation method, adsorption method), and electric power-driven carbon dioxide capture technology (electrochemistry method). The specific research directions are as follows:
1
Research Ideas on the Principle and Process Innovation of Chemical Absorption Method Technology
2
Research Ideas on Technological Innovation of Membrane Contactor Composite Capture System
3
Research Ideas on Innovative Technologies for Carbon Dioxide Electrochemical Capture
