Description

Call funded under the AURIGA project (“Unveiling the RIddles of GAs–liquid fluid dynamics: towards novel carbon dioxide absorption systems”). Project code FIS-2023-00204, CUP D53C25000730001, funded under the FIS2 call (Decreto Direttoriale n. 1236 del 1-08-2023). The research programme falls within the activities of the AURIGA project and focuses on the theoretical and experimental investigation of mass transfer, the modelling of multiphase reactors using ionic liquids for CO₂ absorption, and the integration of such reactors at system level. First, experimental campaigns for the investigation of mass transfer will be designed and supervised. Second, a multiphase reactor model will be developed and integrated at system level, with the aim of optimising reactor design and performing a techno-economic comparison with conventional technologies. Subsequently, real case studies will be identified and analysed.
