what is source capture?
Post-combustion carbon capture is the removal of CO2 from flue gas after the fuel source is burned. It is the most cost-effective option for retrofitting existing power plants and other industrial emitters with carbon capture capabilities.
PRODUCTION
phase
During the production phase, fuel is burned in the boiler, releasing CO2 into the environment if there is no carbon capture process in place. ION diverts the carbon dioxide-rich gas into an absorption tower to begin the capture process.
absorption
phase
Flue gas rich with CO2 is directed into an absorption tower where ION’s advanced liquid solvent contacts the flue gas and absorbs the CO2. Flue gas, now free of CO2, is then safely and cleanly released into the atmosphere.
REGENERATION
phase
The ION solvent, now loaded with captured CO2, is heated at temperatures that separate the CO2 from the solvent liquid. Captured CO2 can then be compressed and transported to be safely and permanently sequestered or re-used for other value-added products. The sustainable ION solvent is then returned to the absorption tower to start the cycle all over again.
