MATESA

Advanced Materials and Electric Swing Adsorption Process for CO₂ Capture

The vision of MATESA is to develop a new-generation high-efficiency capture process based on selective adsorption of CO₂ on hybrid honeycomb monoliths.

Accumulation of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere is directly linked to the increased global warming.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one of the technological solutions to decarbonize the energy market while providing secure energy supply in the short-middle term.

It is expected that the cost of capture can be reduced to values lower than €30 per ton of CO₂ avoided.

Due to the fast and efficient regeneration of the adsorbent, ESA has been pointed out as one of the most promising technologies for CCS.
