Abstract

The carbon capture by adsorption (CCA) is regarded as an available engineering technology because of its low energy-consumption, easy to control, and possible integration with renewable energy. The recent advances in CCA research comprises mainly about the performance improvement of adsorbents, design and optimization of engineering process. However, considering the time-consuming and intensive funding required for experimental investigation, the numerical simulation has been widely applied in CCA. In numerical simulation field of CCA, the adsorption process is commonly simplified into mathematical models group comprised of adsorption kinetics model, the adsorption equilibrium model, pressure drop model and heat transfer model. However, few studies’ focus is to provide a detailed review of the research methodology of mathematical modeling in CCA simulation.
