Description
Global climate change mitigation depends on reducing the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, including decreasing new emissions and directly removing existing CO2. This paper investigates a decentralized direct air capture (DAC) solution, which is a retrofit for commercial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. The solution includes a sorbent to filter CO2, permanent conversion of gaseous CO2 to a carbonate salt, and automation for moving the byproduct outside of the building. The considerations of this system include improved indoor air quality, permanent CO2 removal, and energy savings from decreased outdoor air intake. Parameters investigated include technological considerations, system design, and preliminary results of performance including adsorption and models for energy balance and life cycle analysis.
