Decarbonisation of Fermentation Processes by a Patented Solid Sorbent-L2M

就治疗而言，癌症并不是一种单一的疾病，同样，碳捕获一词也包含了许多不同的挑战，这取决于二氧化碳被去除的气体流，以及将这种成分与再生过程结合起来的最佳选择。证明任何碳捕获技术的一个关键障碍是，捕获的二氧化碳的命运也必须考虑在内。对于寻求在较小范围内降低风险的新技术，靠近封存地点或管道通常不是一个选择。发酵源提供了一个独特的机会，因为捕获的二氧化碳可以简单地在现场重复使用，比如在啤酒厂进行碳酸化。该项目将使用一种获得专利的二氧化碳吸附剂，这种吸附剂来自被称为金属有机骨架（mof）的多孔固体，并有可能用于发酵气体的碳捕获。卡尔加里大学发现的专利MOF是独一无二的，因为它是世界上第一个用于燃烧后碳捕获的工业MOF。捕集机制允许二氧化碳先于水在孔隙中凝结。此外，MOF具有高度稳定性和可扩展性（Science 2021）。

Much like cancer does not represent a single disease in terms of finding a cure, the term carbon capture encompasses many different challenges depending on the gas stream the CO2 is being removed from and the optimal options to integrate that composition with a regenerating process. A key hurdle to demonstrate any carbon capture technology is that the fate of the captured CO2 must also be considered. For new technologies seeking to be derisked on a smaller scale, proximity to a sequestration site or pipeline is often not an option. Fermentation sources present a unique opportunity as the captured CO2 can simply be reused onsite say at a brewery for carbonation. This project will use a patented CO2 sorbent from the class of porous solids known as metal-organic rrameworks (MOFs) and derisk for fermentation gas carbon capture. The patented MOF, discovered atthe University of Calgary, is unique in that it is the first MOF in the world deployed industrially for post-combustion carbon capture. The capture mechanism allows CO2 to condense in pores before water. Moreover, the MOF is highly stable and scalable (Science 2021).
