Novozymes will work in collaboration with Doosan Power Systems, University of Kentucky and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, to carry out the three-year project with total budget of about $2m.
The project will brings together expertise in enzyme technology, power generation, gas separations, and ultrasonic technology development.
The team will develop and evaluate the performance of an integrated laboratory system that uses an experimental enzyme, together with ultrasonics in a low temperature process to separate carbon dioxide from flue gas.
Novozymes vice president research and development Steen Skjold-Jorgensen said that the innovation across disciplines and integration of processes is essential to bring new technologies forward in the CO2 capture field.
