Refrigeration the answer to CO2 capture?
2014-06-10
The use of refrigeration technology is now being considered as a means to capture CO2 from large power stations and industrial plants.
Current methods employ chemicals or advanced materials to extract CO2 from flue-gases. However new research carried out by SINTEF, a Trondheim-based independent research company, suggests that refrigeration might provide a cheaper and less energy-intensive alternative.
