A holistic platform for accelerating sorbent-based carbon capture.

ABSTRACT: Reducing carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions urgently requires the large-scale deployment of carbon-capture technologies. These technologies must separate CO₂ from various sources and deliver it to different sinks^1,2. The quest for optimal solutions for specific source-sink pairs is a complex, multi-objective challenge involving multiple stakeholders and depends on social, economic and regional contexts. Currently, research follows a sequential approach: chemists focus on materials design³ and engineers on optimizing processes^4,5, which are then operated at a scale that impacts the economy and the environment. Assessing these impacts, such as the greenhouse gas emissions over the plant's lifetime, is typically one of the final steps^6</
