Carbon Circle’s Approach to Scaling Up Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)

June 20, 2024
AspenTech
Join experts from Carbon Circle, an EPC specialist in carbon removal and energy transition solutions, to hear how they are improving the economics, execution and scale-up of their projects—including energy-from-waste (EfW) with integrated CCS. They’ll discuss the challenges of scaling carbon capture solutions and how they are overcoming them with the help of AspenTech solutions. During this webinar, you will learn how Carbon Circle is: • Designing cost-effective carbon capture facilities that prioritize energy reduction • Reducing the costs associated with carbon capture via modularization and other strategies • Understanding and improving carbon capture through rigorous modeling of advanced solvents and the total system In addition, experts from AspenTech will highlight the advantage of the rate-based distillation method for carbon capture modeling.
