DRIVE 1st Webinar | Deep CO₂ Removal with Thermal & Electrochemical Capture Technologies

The first official webinar of the DRIVE Project was held on July 3, 2025, showcasing breakthroughs in deep CO₂ removal through thermal and electrochemical capture technologies. Webinar Focus: "Unlocking Deep CO₂ Removal Innovations in Thermal and Electrochemical Capture Technologies" The webinar provides a comprehensive look at the technical progress, TRL advancements, and field testing results from the three key technologies under development: 🔹 CESAR1 (amine-based solvent) for thermal regeneration at RWE’s pilot plant 🔹 CODEC (direct electrochemical regeneration) developed by TNO 🔹 ZEUS (Zero Emission-Ultra Stripping) technology supported by TU/e and HOVYU Agenda Highlights: WP2 – Deep Removal via Thermal Regeneration Presented by Dr. Peter Moser (RWE) WP3 – Deep Removal via Electrochemical Regeneration Presented by Catarina Simões (TNO) and Diego Pinto (HOVYU) WP4 – Techno-Economic & Life Cycle Assessment (Upcoming) Next Steps: 🔹 6-month testing campaign on solvent degradation at RWE 🔹 CODEC/ZEUS field deployment at CEMEX site in Czech Republic 🔹 Continued process optimization, emissions control, and dissemination Funded by: The Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETP) under the 2022 joint call for research proposals, co-funded by the European Commission (Grant Agreement No. 101069750). #CarbonCapture #CO2Removal #CleanEnergy #ThermalRegeneration #ElectrochemicalCapture #AmineSolvents #Electrification #NetZero #ClimateTech #DRIVEproject #CESAR1 #CODEC #ZEUS
