Cleanova Launches Customised C-clean Technology for Carbon Filtration

Filtration manufacturer Cleanova has launched C-Clean, a customized filtration technology to separate carbon within the Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) suite. This technology provides a tailored approach to carbon filtration, enhancing the efficiency of carbon capture systems.

The CCUS suite intercepts carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions at the source, either containing the CO2 to prevent it from entering the atmosphere or repurposing it for other applications. Both processes rely on advanced filtration technology like C-Clean to effectively separate CO2 from solid and liquid contaminants.

"Cleanova C-Clean enables co-development of customised carbon capture solutions using advanced filtration products that are appropriate for CCUS applications," said Chris Nixon, Cleanova’s engineering and products director. "Filtration technology plays a pivotal role at every stage in the carbon capture process, from the arrival of the feed gas through chemical absorption to final storage and transportation."

C-Clean can be tailored to specific projects, potentially saving space and using fewer resources to maximize operational performance and efficiency. This efficiency results in a significant reduction of waste, capital investment, and operational costs.

"Each filtration solution needs to be tailored to specific conditions such as CO2 concentration, the nature of the emission source, the presence of other contaminants, temperature, and pressure," said Nixon. "This means that CCUS operators and system designers need to work collaboratively with filtration experts from the outset to achieve optimal results."

The project utilizes Uniq-Max high-capacity filters, designed to prevent absorber plugging by removing suspended particles from feed gases. It also features liquid and gas coalescers to ensure solvent purity, as well as activated carbon filters to remove hydrocarbons and contaminants.

Oil mist eliminators contribute to environmental sustainability by cleaning exhaust air, aligning with the Paris Agreement’s goal to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.

"Cleanova C-Clean supports our overarching mission to enable clean environments through innovative filtration solutions," said Nixon. "Our radical new approach makes it easier for CCUS customers to access the expert advice, ongoing support, and appropriate filtration technologies they need to achieve their decarbonization ambitions."
