The project will develop the potential of RF heating for process integration and/or enhancement in sorption/desorption technologies for CO2 capture, considering its energy savings, temperature control, flexibility, faster response, benefits over selectivities/conversions and less sintering on sorbents and the utilization of the desorbed CO2 in plasma reactor.
