Greencap provides a green technology for rinsing out air from CO2 and provide CO2 free air to closed systems such as storage rooms and battery factories.
The technology is based on the direct air capture process where zeolite is used as the CO2 adsorbent and delivering CO2 free air as the final product.
The presented technology involves no chemicals and provides CO2 free air with ≤10 ppm CO2.
In some cases, battery production requires dehydrated and nearly CO2 free air. GCS has developed a new application for delivering near CO2-free air.
GCS’ contribution is to remove CO2 from air that has been dehydrated by others using two sorbent beds operating alternately in adsorption and desorption mode as shown in figure to the right.
The product after adsorption is extremely low residual CO2 content of <0.5ppm. Minimum requirement for battery production is <10 ppm and known competitors have problems reaching <20ppm. Desorption step is accomplished using treated and heated air to regenerate the adsorbent bed and recover the adsorbed CO2.
