The CarbonCapturEXPO & CONFERENCE has been developed during the H2020 funded project Genesis. Following the end of the project in 2022, the CarbonCapturEXPO & CONFERENCE Community has been open to the partners outside the Genesis Project and it has been constantly growing.
Genesis – High performance MOF and IPOSS enhanced membrane systems as next generation CO2 capture technologies
The GENESIS project was 4-year EU Horizon 2020 project that started in January 2018 and finished in April 2022 This project received funding from European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, under grant agreement No 760899 (9.5 € Million Grant).
This project aimed to develop and upscale some of the most promising material for CO2 capture and demonstrate their performance, durability and reliability in industrial environments. GENESIS is built upon two previous ambitious EU projects that developed IPOSS and MOF membrane systems with a great performance for CC. GENESIS takes these technologies a step further by scaling up the most promising ones by demonstrating in relevant 0.45 MWe capture process for pre-combustion and 2 post-combustion applications and achieve at least 90% of CO2 recovery at a cost of 15€/MWh in two carbon intensive industries (Schwenk & ArcelorMittal). GENESIS builds upon a multidisciplinary team of European technology centers, large enterprises, SMEs in a cross-border project. This guarantees that the successful implementation of GENESIS and ensure the ambitious objectives is achieved and impact will be realized in terms of a rapid market penetration of the developed materials and systems by overcoming technological barriers.
The GENESIS Project partners are: Leitat, TUDelft, SINTEF, UTwente, TNO, ICN2, EPFL, MOF Technologies Ltd,, Funzionano AS., CTI, Orelis Environnement, YODFAT Engineers, CEMEX Research Group AG, ArcelorMittal, Cambridge Nanomaterials Technology Ltd and SCHWENK Latvija.
