Moving packed beds for cryogenic CO2 capture: analysis of packing material and bed precooling (2021)
Journal Article
Cann, D., Font-Palma, C., & Willson, P. (2021). Moving packed beds for cryogenic CO2 capture: analysis of packing material and bed precooling. Carbon Capture Science & Technology, 1, Article 100017. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ccst.2021.100017

This work expands upon previous work on a moving bed cryogenic carbon capture (CCC). Cryogenic carbon capture using a fixed packed bed captures CO2 frost deposited on the surface of the bed material; this build-up of frost fouls the heat transfer of...

Review of Cryogenic Carbon Capture Innovations and Their Potential Applications (2021)
Journal Article
Font-Palma, C., Cann, D., & Udemu, C. (2021). Review of Cryogenic Carbon Capture Innovations and Their Potential Applications. C - An Open Access Journal of Carbon Research, 7(3), Article 58. https://doi.org/10.3390/c7030058

Our ever-increasing interest in economic growth is leading the way to the decline of natural resources, the detriment of air quality, and is fostering climate change. One potential solution to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from industrial emitters... Read More about Review of Cryogenic Carbon Capture Innovations and Their Potential Applications.

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...

Experimental analysis of CO2 frost front behaviour in moving packed beds for cryogenic CO2 capture (2021)
Journal Article
Cann, D., Font-Palma, C., & Willson, P. (2021). Experimental analysis of CO2 frost front behaviour in moving packed beds for cryogenic CO2 capture. International journal of greenhouse gas control, 107, Article 103291. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijggc.2021.103291

In this work, the feasibility of a novel method of cryogenic carbon capture based on carbon dioxide frost deposition onto a cold moving bed is explored. As a gas mixture including CO2 flows through a sufficiently cold packed bed, CO2 is deposited ont...

Techno‐environmental analysis of the use of green hydrogen for cogeneration from the gasification of wood and fuel cell (2021)
Journal Article
Font‐palma, C., Díaz-Herrera, P., Gonzalez-Diaz, M. O., Jiang, L., Sánchez Ladrón de Guevara, J. C., & Gonzalez-Diaz, A. (2021). Techno‐environmental analysis of the use of green hydrogen for cogeneration from the gasification of wood and fuel cell. Sustainability, 13(6), Article 3232. https://doi.org/10.3390/su13063232

This paper aims to evaluate the use of wood biomass in a gasifier integrated with a fuel cell system as a low carbon technology. Experimental information of the wood is provided by the literature. The syngas is purified by using pressure swing adsorp... Read More about Techno‐environmental analysis of the use of green hydrogen for cogeneration from the gasification of wood and fuel cell.

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,...
