Abstract
Solid sorbents, and especially zeolites, are attractive candidates for COdirect air capture (DAC) and point source capture applications because of their potential for high selectivity, fast kinetics, and low energy COcapture cycles. A common issue with solid sorbents, including zeolites, is their low thermal conductivity, which makes them difficult to heat for regeneration without using complex and expensive heat transfer systems. This invention utilizes a modified TVSA process which utilizes the product COgas itself as the heating medium for the adsorbent bed, alone or in conjunction with internal or external heaters. The use of COas a heating medium allows efficient heating of the sorbent bed and enables high purity COproduct.
