      Romano, Matteo C.; Anantharaman, Rahul; Arasto, Antti; can Ozcan, Dursun; Ahn, Hyungwoong; Dijkstra, Jan Wilco; Carbo, Michiel; Boavida, Dulce (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)
      The great majority of the research on CO2 capture worldwide is today devoted to the integration of new technologies in power plants, which are responsible for about 80% of the worldwide CO2 emission from large stationary ...
    • Comment on “How green is blue hydrogen?" 

      Romano, Matteo C.; Antonini, Cristina; Bardow, André; Bertsch, Valentin; Brandon, N.P.; Brouwer, Jack; Campanari, Stefano; Crema, Luigi; Dodds, Paul E.; Gardarsdottir, Stefania Osk; Gazzani, Matteo; Kramer, Gert Jan; Lund, Peter D.; Mac Dowell, Niall; Martelli, Emanuele; Mastropasqua, Luca; McKenna, Russell; Monteiro, Juliana Garcia Moretz-Sohn; Paltrinieri, Nicola; Pollet, Bruno; Reed, Jeffrey G.; Schmidt, Thomas Justus; Vente, Jaap; Wiley, Dianne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      This paper is written in response to the paper “How green is blue hydrogen?” by R. W. Howarth and M. Z. Jacobson. It aims at highlighting and discussing the method and assumptions of that paper, and thereby providing a ...
    • COMPOSITE: A concept for high efficiency power production with integrated CO2 capture from solid fuels 

      Larring, Yngve; Cloete, Schalk Willem Petrus; Giuffrida, Antonio; Romano, Matteo C.; Chiesa, Paolo; Morud, John; Pishahang, Mehdi; Chikukwa, Actor; Amini, Shahriar; Tobiesen, Finn Andrew (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      The COMPOSITE concept combines packed bed chemical looping combustion (PBCLC) with chemical looping for oxygen production (CLOP) in an integrated gasification combined cycle for high efficiency power production. Detailed ...
    • Economic assessment of the swing adsorption reactor cluster for CO2 capture from cement production 

      Cloete, Schalk Willem Petrus; Giuffrida, Antonio; Romano, Matteo C.; Zaabout, Abdelghafour (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Cement production is responsible for about 8% of global CO2 emissions. Most of these emissions originate from the process itself and thus cannot be avoided via clean energy, leaving CO2 capture as the only viable solution. ...
    • A Novel Swing Adsorption Reactor Cluster (SARC) for Cost Effective Post-combustion CO2 Capture: A Thermodynamic Assessment 

      Zaabout, Abdelghafour; Romano, Matteo C.; Cloete, Schalk Willem Petrus; Giuffrida, Antonio; Morud, John; Chiesa, Paolo; Amini, Shahriar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      The SARC consists of a number of standalone reactors where a solid sorbent is carbonated by a flue gas and regenerated by a combination of vacuum and temperature swing. Efficiency is maximized through heat integration ...
    • Process simulation of Ca-looping processes: review and guidelines 

      Romano, Matteo C.; Martinez, Isabel; Murillo, Ramón; Arstad, Bjørnar; Blom, Richard; Ozcan, Dursun Can; Ahn, Hyungwoong; Brandani, Stefano (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)
      Ca-looping is one of the most promising processes for CO2 capture in short to medium term plants, which can be applied for both post-combustion and pre-combustion layouts. The recent successful operations of MW-scale pilot ...
    • Techno-economic Analysis of MEA CO2 Capture from a Cement Kiln – Impact of Steam Supply Scenario 

      Roussanaly, Simon; Fu, Chao; Voldsund, Mari; Anantharaman, Rahul; Spinelli, Maurizio; Romano, Matteo C. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      This paper present the techno-economic assessment of an MEA-based CO2 capture from a cement plant and the importance of the steam supply on the costs. The evaluations present the energy performances of the CO2 capture ...
    • The effect of sorbent regeneration enthalpy on the performance of the novel Swing Adsorption Reactor Cluster (SARC) for post-combustion CO2 capture 

      Cloete, Schalk Willem Petrus; Giuffrida, Antonio; Romano, Matteo C.; Zaabout, Abdelghafour (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    • The swing adsorption reactor cluster for post-combustion CO2 capture from cement plants 

      Cloete, Schalk Willem Petrus; Giuffrida, Antonio; Romano, Matteo C.; Zaabout, Abdelghafour (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The swing adsorption reactor cluster is a promising new method for post-combustion CO2 capture using a synergistic combination of temperature and pressure swings. The pressure swing is carried out by a vacuum pump and ...
