Carbon Capture Facilities

Post-combustion capture is an amine plant with a tighter energy budget.

A capture plant is an absorber, a stripper and a reboiler running the same solvent chemistry as gas sweetening. The difference is that regeneration energy decides whether the project is viable.

Calibrated on this unitSame chemistry, same fault set.

The unit we model

Absorber, water wash, lean/rich exchanger, stripper and reboiler on amine-based post-combustion capture, with the full solvent circuit.

What it finds

Solvent degradation and heat-stable salt build-up, foaming, exchanger fouling, and the slow climb in reboiler duty per tonne captured.

What it protects

Capture rate, solvent make-up, and the steam that sets your cost per tonne. Excess energy is one of the six consequences the engine prices directly.

Ten minutes in the platform beats an hour of slides.

It runs on a real amine train with thirteen days of one-minute history behind it — live diagnosis, root causes and cost per hour. Nothing on this page is a mock-up.
