Abstract

In the present study, we propose a new concept to capture carbon dioxide (CO₂) from gas industries using a supersonic separator. We develop and validate a computational fluid dynamics model to evaluate the effect of a real gas model on the non-equilibrium condensation CO₂ in high-pressure supersonic flows. The results show that the ideal gas equation of state under-predicts the CO₂ condensation with the predicted liquid fraction of approximately 15% of the total mass. The Redlich-Kwong equation of state incorporating with the condensing flow model shifts the onset of the CO₂ nucleation process upwards to the nozzle throat, while predicting a liquid fraction up to 28% of the total mass. The study indicates that the CO₂ condensation in supersonic flows provides an efficient way to mitigate the CO₂ emissions from gas industries.
