Norwegian researchers pioneer CCS process for post-combustion …
1 day ago · RESEARCHERS from SINTEF have developed a “simpler” low-cost carbon capture and storage (CCS) system for sequestering post-combustion CO2. The Continuous Swing Adsorption Reactor (CSAR) builds on previous work from the Norwegian research organisation and has been found to be less energy intensive than other CCS processes, including monoethanolamine (MEA) and swing adsorption reactor cluster ...

The Future of Chemical Engineering in the Era of Generative AI
Sep 28, 2023 · The necessity of coding ability in chemical engineering has been established for some time, but despite this many chemical engineers have limited coding ability. 3 Generative AI can automate the creation of small functions and portions of programs by generating chunks of code. While much of the current criticism in this area is directed towards ...
Cleantech uses ‘reversable rusting’ to develop 100-hour battery
3 days ago · Cleantech uses ‘reversable rusting’ to develop 100-hour battery. A MASSACHUSETTS energy firm has developed an iron-based battery that can store electricity for four days using a novel method called “reverse rusting”. Form Energy’s iron-air batteries can output electricity by using oxygen to convert iron metal into air, and then ...

A Life in Lithium - Features - The Chemical Engineer
Sep 30, 2021 · A schematic is shown in Figure 1. Fundamentally, LIBs consist of chemically-active materials that accept electrons upon reaction with lithium ions. These materials, when combined with conductive additives, become the device’s electrodes. Two electrodes are used in LIB cells – one providing a high energy “home” for the lithium (the anode ...
