Is Carbon Capture a Viable Solution to Decarbonise the Shipping Industry? (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Font Palma, C. (2021). Is Carbon Capture a Viable Solution to Decarbonise the Shipping Industry?. In Short Papers from the 11th International Trondheim CCS Conference (181-192)

This work presents some insights into two different options for onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS). Previous studies have shown that solvent-based carbon capture is feasible, and that the new equipment installed for CO2 capture would not debil...

Comparison of performance of alternative post combustion carbon capture processes for a biogas fueled micro gas turbine (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Font-Palma, C., Lychnos, G., Somehsaraei, H. N., Willson, P., & Assadi, M. (2020, September). Comparison of performance of alternative post combustion carbon capture processes for a biogas fueled micro gas turbine. Presented at ASME Turbo Expo 2020: Turbomachinery Technical Conference and Exposition

Copyright © 2020 ASME The urgent need to decrease greenhouse gases (GHG) has prompted countries such as the UK and Norway to commit to net zero emissions by 2050 and 2030, respectively. One of the sectors contributing to GHG emissions is agriculture,...

Evaluation of a micro gas turbine with post-combustion CO2 capture for exhaust gas recirculation potential with two experimentally validated models (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Somehsaraei, H. N., Ali, U., Font-Palma, C., Majoumerd, M. M., Akram, M., Pourkashanian, M., & Assadi, M. (2017, June). Evaluation of a micro gas turbine with post-combustion CO2 capture for exhaust gas recirculation potential with two experimentally validated models. Presented at ASME Turbo Expo 2017: Turbomachinery Technical Conference and Exposition, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA

The growing global energy demand is facing concerns raised by increasing greenhouse gas emissions, predominantly CO2. Despite substantial progress in the field of renewable energy in recent years, quick balancing responses and back-up services are st...

Process simulation and thermodynamic analysis of a micro turbine with post-combustion CO2 capture and exhaust gas recirculation (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ali, U., Best, T., Finney, K. N., Palma, C. F., Hughes, K. J., Ingham, D. B., & Pourkashanian, M. Process simulation and thermodynamic analysis of a micro turbine with post-combustion CO2 capture and exhaust gas recirculation

With the effects of the emissions from power plants causing global climate change, the trend towards lower emission systems such as natural gas power plant is increasing. In this paper a Turbec T100 micro gas turbine is studied. The system is assesse...
