Project 32: REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS THROUGH THE CENTRAL THERMOELECTRIC INTEGRATION WITH TECHNOLOGIES OF CO2

(Project Concluded in July 08, 2020)

This project deal with CO₂ utilization, emphasizing chemical conversion processes that use CO₂ as feedstock to generate high added-value products. The main objective is to deeply study CO₂ conversion processes, including their modeling, simulation and optimization, thus contributing for their implementation in the production stage. The most promising products from CO₂ and their respective process technologies are selected in order to build a conceptual process design, trough realistic material and energy balances.  Technical, economic and environmental feasibility assessment are carried out.
