Environmental process optimisation of an adsorption-based direct air carbon capture and storage system

Energy & Environmental Science, vol. 17, pp. 3004–3020

Abstract

Since the goal of DACCS is CO 2 removal, DACCS processes should be optimised using meaningful climate-benefit metrics such as carbon removal efficiency. We optimise a dynamic DACCS process model to fully exploit its carbon removal potential.
