RotaScrub® Process

Flue gas or air enters RotaScrub® at the bottom, where centrifugal forces are applied. Clean scrubbing liquid is injected. Gas moves up and liquid moves down.
CO2 bonds with the scrubbing liquid in the rotating core. Coagulated scrubbing liquid is centrifugated to the outer wall and collected.
The coagulated scrubbing liquid flows through the liquid outlet to the regenerator for stripping the CO2.

Small Footprint

10x Smaller Dimensions
RotaSep® offers exceptional performance in a package that’s up to 10 times smaller than traditional separator towers, saving valuable space at the installation site.

3x Lower Weight
The much smaller unit with similar flow and throughput results in RotaSep® being much more lightweight than alternatives, which helps with easy installation and support requirements.

Massive Performance

10x Higher Efficiency
Smaller diffusion distance in small channels leads to up to tenfold higher mass transfer efficiency (k-factor). Our rotating filter internals result in 2 to 5 times higher specific surface (m2/m3) compared to alternative solutions.

Full Compatibility
RotaScrub® is available in different sizes for both new and retrofit installations, offering a great fit with any site and highly reduced auxiliary installation material requirements. This allows for easy integration in existing plants or fit well container-sized installations on a skid.

Superior Economics

20% to 30% Lower OPEX
RotaScrub® is tenfold smaller than conventional packed bed scrubbers, requires 20% to 40% less scrubbing liquid and can use higher viscosity Amines that enable higher CO2 loading at a lower price.

Profitable Business Case
Our 20% to 25% lower CAPEX results in our ability to offer a profitable RotaScrub® Point Source Carbon Capture business case for a wide range of applications with CO2 emission volumes up to 100kTon per year.

Sustainability

Higher scrubbing and recovery efficiency
RotaScrub®’s superior technology increases absorption and capture yields; the separated material can often be reused for other purposes and processes.

Reduced emissions
RotaScrub® results in a cleaned gas stream, which in turn leads to better performance and reduced CO2, NH3, and waste gas emissions from the entire installation.

Significantly lower volume and weight
Thanks to its much smaller footprint and dimensions, the use of raw materials during construction as well as the required installation resources are significantly reduced.

Reduced maintenance of sensitive equipment
With exceptionally clean gas entering often large, sensitive equipment, RotaScrub® prevents fouling, reducing maintenance requirements increasing uptime, efficiency, and reliability.

Increased uptime
RotaScrub® is designed to be operational at full capacity for extended periods with minimal maintenance, which Increases uptime and output of the same production equipment.

No consumables
As the scrubber hardware is washed inline, it is not fouled over time and produces no waste in terms of filters, packings, or cartridges - common replacement parts for alternative solutions.
