Nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) of the solvent-based post-combustion CO2 capture process (2020)
Journal Article
Akinola, T. E., Oko, E., Wu, X., Ma, K., & Wang, M. (2020). Nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) of the solvent-based post-combustion CO2 capture process. Energy, 213, Article 118840. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.energy.2020.118840

The flexible operation capability of solvent-based post-combustion capture (PCC) process is vital to efficiently meet the load variation requirement in the integrated upstream power plant. This can be achieved through the deployment of an appropriate... Read More about Nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) of the solvent-based post-combustion CO2 capture process.

CO2 capture using mesocellular siliceous foam (MCF)-supported CaO (2018)
Journal Article
Gao, F., Huang, J., Sun, H., Hu, J., Wang, M., Mi, J., & Wu, C. (2019). CO2 capture using mesocellular siliceous foam (MCF)-supported CaO. Journal of the Energy Institute, 92(5), 1591-1598. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joei.2018.07.015

CaO is a promising material as an alternative CO2 capture material which can be used at high temperature. However, CaO sinters to form large particles under long-term high temperature conditions, resulting in a rapid decrease of its surface area and...

Study of intercooling for rotating packed bed absorbers in intensified solvent-based CO2 capture process (2018)
Journal Article
Oko, E., Ramshaw, C., & Wang, M. (2018). Study of intercooling for rotating packed bed absorbers in intensified solvent-based CO2 capture process. Applied energy, 223, 302-316. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2018.04.057

Rotating packed beds (RPBs) are a compact and potentially more cost-effective alternative to packed beds for application in solvent-based carbon capture process. However, with concentrated monoethanolamine (MEA) (up to 70–80 wt%) as the solvent, ther...
