  capture through a three-fold approach including 1) advanced solvent, 2) homogeneous catalyst and 3) membrane carbon enrichment system. CAER-B3 solvent was formulated to improve the overall thermodynamics with the addition of a proton receiver while maintaining faster kinetics with the addition of thermally robust primary amine. The EH&S study indicates that CAER-B3 solvent poses little human toxicological or ecological risk in its raw material form. Generation of significant quantities of nitrosamines was deemed unlikely when using B3 solvent for CO<

  hydration to produce bicarbonate. As such, a 10-25% improvement in absorption rate was observed over the MEA base case. Enhancements can be imparted to the full scale system to reduce packing height of the absorber column, resulting in significant capital cost savings. Furthermore, the family of CAER catalysts showed less than 10% decomposition over 100 hours at 100 �C, suggesting that these catalysts will be stable in the harsh oxidative and thermal process conditions of an industrial carbon capture unit. Flue gas contaminants, such as NO<

 , also did not impact catalytic activity. A method for synthetic production of 500 g/batch was designed, verified, and well-documented, with scaling capabilities up to 500 kg. Two types of membranes were designed and tested for the purpose of increasing the solvent carbon loading prior to entering the stripper column. 500 hour and 100 hour verification studies were completed for the pre-concentrating membrane and zeolite dewatering membrane, respectively. Results demonstrated that a membrane-based CO<

  partial pressure by 16%, resulting in a stripping energy reduction of 35% relative to DOE Case 12 MEA solvent. Experimental data showed a carbon loading enrichment of 18-40% in comparison to the configuration without the pre-concentrating gas membrane. During the timespan of this project, challenges were identified and addressed so that enhanced performance may be realized long-term. Mitigation implementations included re-configuration of the bench unit with a solvent recovery column and a knock-out drum, as well as an increase in stripper pressure set point. Both changes resulted in a considerable reduction in the rate of solvent loss. Additionally, the membrane synthesis procedure was modified and validated to address zeolite dissolution concerns along with a new separation module. The techno-economic analysis conducted by WorleyParsons indicated the CAER-adCCS hybrid approach may outperform NETL Case 12 with regards to net plant HHV efficiency and cost of electricity.
