Abstract
Carbon Capture (CC) technologies present a promising, complementary approach to achieving net zero emissions and mitigating climate change. Chemical absorption is a widely used method on an industrial scale, but it faces significant challenges due to high capital expenditure (CAPEX) associated with large columns and high operational expenditure (OPEX) driven by high energy demand. The Gas-Liquid Vortex Reactor (GLVR) has demonstrated enhanced performance in intensifying CO2 capture within absorption and desorption processes, leading to high potential for cost reductions. This work focuses on developing a customized onedimensional model of GLVR, conceptualizing the reactor as a series of consecutive packed columns coupled with user-defined hydraulic correlations. The model is validated against experimental data, while the number of columns in series and the chosen liquid layer thickness correlation are evaluated. A validated process model of this intensified reactor holds significant potential for developing a complete absorption-desorption system for CO2 capture applications, enabling the assessment of the proposed technology's economic feasibility.
