Ohio State University (OSU) will develop cost-effective design and fabrication methods for a novel amine-containing membrane to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from coal gasification-derived syngas. The membrane is to be used in a single stage membrane process utilizing modules in commercial spiral-wound configuration with a minimal pressure drop. Work towards optimization and scaleup of transformational membranes with high CO2/hydrogen (H2) selectivity and CO2 permeance, along with testing of spiral-wound membrane modules using simulated syngas, will make progress towards CO2 capture with improved performance to meet U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) targets for cost of electricity and efficiency in advanced power generation plants.
