METHODS FOR CAPTURING CO2 FROM DILUTE CO2 STREAMS OF VARYING HUMIDITY, INCLUDING NATURAL GAS COMBINE CYCLE EXHAUST STREAMS AND AMBIENT AIR STREAMS USING KAUST-7 BASED PHYSISORBENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18060092 titled 'METHODS FOR CAPTURING CO2 FROM DILUTE CO2 STREAMS OF VARYING HUMIDITY, INCLUDING NATURAL GAS COMBINE CYCLE EXHAUST STREAMS AND AMBIENT AIR STREAMS USING KAUST-7 BASED PHYSISORBENTS
Simplified Explanation
The method described in the patent application involves capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from a humid gas stream using a metal organic framework (MOF) material called KAUST-7. The captured CO2 generates a CO2-concentrated gas stream containing approximately 1-30% of CO2.
- Metal organic framework (MOF) material KAUST-7 is used to capture CO2 from a humid gas stream.
- The humid gas stream can be a humid natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) exhaust stream or a humid air stream.
- The captured CO2 generates a CO2-concentrated gas stream containing approximately 1-30% of CO2.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in industries where capturing CO2 from humid gas streams is necessary, such as power plants, refineries, and chemical processing plants.
Problems Solved
This technology helps in reducing greenhouse gas emissions by capturing CO2 from humid gas streams, contributing to environmental protection and sustainability efforts.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include reducing CO2 emissions, improving air quality, and promoting cleaner energy production processes.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology can be commercially applied in carbon capture and storage projects, emission reduction initiatives, and sustainable energy production processes.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art in this field is the use of amine-based solvents for CO2 capture from gas streams. However, the use of MOF materials like KAUST-7 for this purpose may offer advantages such as higher selectivity and efficiency in capturing CO2.
Unanswered Questions

The patent application does not provide specific data or comparisons regarding the efficiency of CO2 capture using KAUST-7 compared to other existing methods. Further research or testing may be needed to determine the performance metrics of this technology.
What are the potential challenges or limitations of implementing this technology on an industrial scale?
The patent application does not address the potential challenges or limitations of implementing this technology on an industrial scale, such as cost-effectiveness, scalability, or operational complexities. Additional studies or pilot projects may be required to assess the feasibility of large-scale deployment.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method for capturing carbon dioxide (CO) from a humid gas stream is provided. In certain embodiments, the gas stream is a humid natural gas combine cycle (NGCC) exhaust stream. In certain embodiments, the gas stream is a humid air stream. The humid gas stream comprises COand oxygen (O). In the method, the humid gas stream is contacted with a metal organic framework (MOF) material KAUST-7. The COfrom the humid gas stream is captured with the KAUST-7 MOF material to generate a CO-concentrated gas stream comprising approximately 1-30% of CO.
