Among the methods for point source carbon capture, the absorption of CO2 using aqueous amines (namely MEA) from the post-combustion gas stream is currently considered the most promising.
ORNL contributes to developing the concept of passive CO2 DAC by designing and testing a hybrid sorption system. This design aims to leverage the advantages of CO2 solubility and selectivity offered by materials with selective sorption of adsorbents.
This work seeks to alter the interface condition through thermal history modification, deposition energy density, and interface surface preparation to prevent interface cracking.
Additive manufacturing (AM) enables the incremental buildup of monolithic components with a variety of materials, and material deposition locations.
High strength, oxidation resistant refractory alloys are difficult to fabricate for commercial use in extreme environments.
Ceramic matrix composites are used in several industries, such as aerospace, for lightweight, high quality and high strength materials. But producing them is time consuming and often low quality.
