EMS Webinar – Wednesday, November 8th 2023, at 4:00 PM (CET) – Thijs Peters – Membrane systems for CO2 capture

Title: Membrane systems for CO2 capture.
 
Abstract:

Within this webinar, we primarily aim to provide a condensed overview of the membrane status for different separation scenarios within CO₂ capture. There is a wide variety of membrane types based on their physical and chemical properties. Many of them have showed great potentials to fulfil the need of CCS. Polymeric membrane systems for post-combustion CO₂ capture have benefits in terms of operational simplicity and are suited for bulk CO₂ removal. High-temperature gas separation membrane technology offers an opportunity to combine membrane separation processes directly with chemical reactions, leading to process intensification and, hence, has the potential for significant cost reduction and higher efficiency in power and/or H₂ production processes. In the webinar we will present the recent status of the field, together with ongoing developments at SINTEF.

Biography:

Thijs Peters is a senior research scientist and project manager at the Department of Sustainable Energy Technology at SINTEF Industry in Norway. He graduated as a Ph.D. from the Technical University of Einhoven in 2005 within the field of process development (membrane-assisted esterifcation reactions). His research interests spans from process chemistry, membrane technology, hydrogen production, CO₂ capture, energy efficiency, to gas separation technologies. He has 80+ publications in international peer-review journals and contributed to 13 book chapters and >200 conferences.
