  • Publication number: 20230134034
    Abstract: An evaluation method capable of evaluating whether or not waste plastic-derived porous carbon can be applied on an industrial scale, according to the present disclosure, may include the steps of evaluating CO2 capture performance using a 5-step temperature vacuum swing adsorption (TVSA) process, assessing economic feasibility in an industry using a techno-economic assessment (TEA) method, and quantifying environmental impacts of the porous carbon production pathway and global warming potential (GWP) using cradle-to-gate life-cycle assessment (LCA). A method for manufacturing porous carbon, according to the present disclosure, may include the steps of carbonizing a polyethylene terephthalate plastic, activating the carbonized plastic with CO2, and performing cooling.

  • Patent number: 11581066
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for reducing the complexity of bio-crudes. The method includes (a) obtaining experimental data of quantitative and qualitative analyses for the bio-crudes, (b) grouping compounds contained in the bio-crudes according to a predetermined basis based on the experimental data, (c) selecting representative compounds from among the compounds belonging to the same group, and (d) reconstituting the bio-crudes as a mixture of the representative compounds.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20190362050
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for reducing the complexity of bio-crudes. The method includes (a) obtaining experimental data of quantitative and qualitative analyses for the bio-crudes, (b) grouping compounds contained in the bio-crudes according to a predetermined basis based on the experimental data, (c) selecting representative compounds from among the compounds belonging to the same group, and (d) reconstituting the bio-crudes as a mixture of the representative compounds. In the method for reducing the complexity of the bio-crudes for process simulation according to the present invention, the number of constituent compounds of the bio-crudes is minimized and the physical properties of the bio-crudes are accurately represented using only experimental data obtained through GC-MS, thereby enabling accurate and efficient process simulation of the bio-crudes.
