Solving for Solvents: How International Partnerships are Enhancing the Solvents Needed for CCS
25:52
Through its ability to absorb carbon dioxide from industrial gases before it has the chance to impact the atmosphere, solvents play a key role in CCS, particularly in post-combustion CO2 capture. However, solvents can degrade overtime, which can impact its efficacy. The LAUNCH Project, which recently concluded, was a three year initiative involving…
