Motivation and recent work to develop Surface Acoustic Wave devices and related systems for in-situ gas monitoring and corrosion by proxy.
In order to improve the long-term performance of post-combustion carbon capture technologies, improvements to the detection of solvent degradation or reduction in CO2 capture efficiency are necessary. A pair of sensors were deployed to the National Carbon Capture Center’s (NCCC) to monitor CO2 capture and solvent degradation. The CO2 sensors were located to measure before capture and after capture concentrations of CO2 to measure the capture efficiency of the solvent system. Amine degradation sensors were located at four locations along the main solvent lines corresponding to CO2 loading and temperature: hot rich, cold rich, hot lean, and cold lean. Experimental results from laboratory tests using the sensors are shown, along with prototype designs that were deployed to the field site.
