In this novel approach, "a thermodynamic model was constructed using psychometric theories to model the #desublimation of CO2 in a #DAC system. The system was modeled
to include a precooling heat exchanger & a deposition chamber where the desublimation
of CO2 occurs."

3️⃣ base systems studied:
πŸ”Έ NC (no precompression/turbine recovery)
πŸ”ΈPC (precompression only)
πŸ”ΈTR (precompression & turbine recovery)
at 3️⃣ different compression ratios, n=400, 800 & 2000.
Then, a combination #DAC system, PSA, was modeled."

"A dual-column, 4️⃣-step Skarstrom Cycle PSA (pressure swing adsorption & cryogenic distillation) unit was analyzed using Extended Langmuir Models & the
ideal gas law to simulate a CO2 conc. prior to the deposition chamber. The NC & PSA systems were assessed at Tamb= -50β—¦C."
4/10 Image
This study finds that "while increasing the compression ratio of the system, there is no net energy benefit when capturing CO2 given the current state-of-the-art in commercial compressor & #cryocooler capabilities."
5/10 Image
"The assessment of the efficiency of a precooler versus TR finds that it is more advantageous to utilize a heat exchanger precooler than precompression with turbine recovery in a #DAC system. Combining DAC systems may yield a more efficient system."
6/10 Image
"PSA combined with cryogenic capture is less energy intensive than cryogenic capture alone. In a combined #DAC system with PSA and cryogenic distillation,
the PSA unit has a significantly lower energy consumption than the #cryocooler."
7/10 ImageImage
"Increasing the concentration of CO2 entering the deposition chamber significantly decreases the required energy consumption of the #cryocooler."
