• A numerical solution strategy for dynamic simulation of post-combustion CO2 capture 

      Enaasen, Nina; Tobiesen, Finn Andrew; Kvamsdal, Hanne Marie; Hillestad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      This paper describes in detail the numerical solution of a dynamic process developed for post-combustion absorption based CO2 capture. The method used in this work is sequential modular integration. This means that each ...
    • Demonstration of non-linear model predictive control for optimal flexible operation of a CO2 capture plant 

      Mejdell, Thor; Kvamsdal, Hanne Marie; Hauger, S.O.; Gjertsen, Fredrik; Tobiesen, Finn Andrew; Hillestad, Magne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Due to the penetration of renewable intermittent energy, there is a need for coal and natural gas power plants to operate flexibly with variable load. This has resulted in an increasing interest in flexible and operational ...
    • Demonstration of non-linear model predictive control of post-combustion CO2 capture processes 

      Hauger, Svein Olav; Flø, Nina Enaasen; Kvamsdal, Hanne Marie; Gjertsen, Fredrik; Mejdell, Thor; Hillestad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Nonlinear model predictive control applications have been deployed on two large pilot plants for post combustion CO2 capture. The control objective is formulated in such a way that the CO2 capture ratio is controlled at a ...
    • Dynamic modeling of the solvent regeneration part of a CO2 capture plant 

      Enaasen, Nina; Tobiesen, Finn Andrew; Kvamsdal, Hanne Marie; Hillestad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      In this work, a system of unit operations is modeled and implemented in MATLAB for dynamic simulation of the regeneration part of the CO2 capture process. The system consists of a stripper, a reboiler and a condenser, and ...
