    • A new approach to the identification of high-potential materials for cost-efficient membrane-based post-combustion CO2 capture 

      Roussanaly, Simon; Anantharaman, Rahul; Lindqvist, Karl Erik Artur; Hagen, Brede Andre Larsen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Developing “good” membrane modules and materials is a key step towards reducing the cost of membrane-based CO2 capture. While this is traditionally being done through incremental development of existing and new materials, ...
    • At what Pressure Shall CO2 Be Transported by Ship? An in-Depth Cost Comparison of 7 and 15 Barg Shipping 

      Roussanaly, Simon; Deng, Han; Skaugen, Geir; Gundersen, Truls (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The pipeline has historically been the preferred means to transport CO2 due to its low cost for short distances and opportunities for economies of scale. However, interest in vessel-based transport of CO2 is growing. While ...
    • Carbon chain analysis on a coal IGCC — CCS system with flexible multi-products 

      Zhang, Xiangping; Gundersen, Truls; Roussanaly, Simon; Brunsvold, Amy; Zhang, Suojiang (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
