Research Project Summary:

This project aims to assess the economic feasibility of various CO₂ capture systems, including chemical absorption, gas separation membranes, gas absorption membranes, adsorption and crygenic distillation. The project will also undertake a life cycle analysis of each system/technology to identify any adverse impacts and the suitability of the capture technologies for Australian conditions. The economic feasibility will highlight key areas of mitigation cost and the subsequent impact that these additional costs will have on Australian industry.

The aim of this project is to calculate the associated cost avoided for capture through the development of a computation mode that will estimate the capital and operational and mantainence cost associated with implementation of the various capture technologies.
