CO2 is a greenhouse gas. There is a great need to reduce its presence, emission, and production. The use, storage, and transport of CO2 creates a number of interesting process challenges.  

My work entails:

• CO2 absorption for emissions reduction. 
• Energy optimal solvent based CO2 desorption in relation to reboiling in stripping or rectification
• CO2 corrosion in energy production and transport in flow assurance
• CO2 compression with impurities focus
• Large scale pilot for CO2 capture and utilization

This is performed in close contact to Kaj Thomsen, Nicolas von Solms, Georgios Kontogeorgis, Ida Fabricius, Alexander Shapiro, and Erling H. Stenby.

The research topics are mathematical models for

• Process design, simulation, validation, and optimisation with respect to process flow sheets
• Properties of salt solutions and aqueous electrolytes precipitation
• Experimental method development and pilot facilities
• Predictive thermodynamic models on a basis of the above

Laboratory measurements of

• Thermodynamic equilibrium VLE, SLE, heat capacity, and heat of absorption by DSC
• Physico-chemical properties like density, viscosity, surface tension etc.
• Corrosion related issues like protective scales
• CO2 storage and core flooding
