C1Po3C - Liquid Air, CO2, Ar Liquefaction and Storage
- David Montanari (Fermi National Accelerator Lab. (US))
Liquid air energy storage (LAES) is a cryogenic energy storage technology that stores electricity in the form of liquid air, with operating temperatures as low as 80 K. Currently, LAES is still in the stage of critical technological development and exploratory demonstration applications. Its quantified environmental impacts remain unclear, and research on the carbon accounting of LAES...
The Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) located at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, South Dakota, hosts the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). This experiment employs cryostats containing nearly 70,000 metric tons of high-purity liquid argon (LAr). Ensuring LAr purity is critical for achieving the required electron lifetime, which directly impacts the...
To achieve carbon neutrality, the contribution of renewable energy to electricity generation is steadily increasing. However, renewable energy sources often experience significant output fluctuations due to varying weather conditions. Consequently, the demand for high-capacity energy storage systems is gradually rising to ensure grid stability. The Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) system...
In the global pursuit of energy transition, energy storage technologies play a pivotal role in integrating renewable energy into the grid, maintaining grid stability, and ensuring energy security. Liquid air energy storage (LAES) technology offers a scalable, cost-effective, and geographically unconstrained solution for large-scale, long-duration energy storage, making it a promising solution...
Cryogenic desublimation carbon capture (CDCC) has attracted widespread attention due to its high capture efficiency, environmental compatibility, and the production of high-purity CO2. However, limitations in cryogenic visualization technology have hindered a comprehensive understanding of CO2 desublimation characteristics in mixed gases, confining the application of CDCC to small-scale...
