Bio

Dr. Yunsong Yu is Professor at School of Chemical Engineering and Technology, Xi’an Jiaotong University, China. He is the Joint Ph.D. of The University of Queensland and XJTU. He has been granted by 20 projects including Key R&D Program of the Ministry of Science and Technology, National Natural Science Foundation of China, Natural Science Basic Research Plan in Shaanxi Province of China and etc. He has published 80 papers and reward by Excellent Doctoral Dissertations in Shaanxi, K.C. Wong Scholar, First prize of Shaanxi Petrochemical Science and Technology Award and etc. He mainly focused on carbon dioxide capture and utilization. He has developed a low energy consumption process of simultaneous carbon dioxide capture and utilization, which scaled up to 10, 000tons per year to 100 million tons per year.  He showed excellent engineering experience and cooperated with CNOOC, Sinopec and Press Metal in Malaysia.

Title

Fundamental research and scale-up technology for simultaneous carbon dioxide capture and conversion

Abstract

Carbon dioxide capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) is important for carbon neutrality. Chemical absorption and catalysis conversion are key technologies to CCUS. However, the high cost barricades the industrial application. Thus, the single atom solution has been developed to reduce the cost. The simultaneous carbon dioxide capture and conversion process by single atom solution is proposed in detail. The single atom solution showed the outstanding thermo-electrical traits, which is capable of enhancing the reaction, heat and mass transfer. The mechanism was analyzed in detail. The scale up from tons to 1000 tons per year has been studied for the future industrial application.
