Periodic Reporting for period 1 - NUACO2 (Nuada's novel optimised MOF reactors for CO2 capture)

Período documentado: 2025-06-01 hasta 2026-05-31

Resumen del contexto y de los objetivos generales del proyecto

Hard-to-abate industries remain major contributors to global carbon emissions, posing a significant challenge to climate goals. Traditional carbon capture methods often struggle with efficiency and deployability at scale in these sectors. The EIC-funded NUACO2 project aims to change this. Led by Belfast-based technology provider Nuada, the project is pioneering their next-generation point-source carbon capture solution tailored for foundational industries. Central to NUACO2 is the development and validation of innovative metal-organic framework reactor designs for faster and more efficient carbon capture while paving the way for upscaling to full industrial deployment. By advancing this cutting-edge technology, NUACO2 will make a crucial step forward towards significantly reducing emissions where it is most difficult to do so.

Trabajo realizado desde el comienzo del proyecto hasta el final del período abarcado por el informe y los principales resultados hasta la fecha

During the first periodic report NUADA has made great progress and is on track to deliver all project deliverables and milestones within the planned schedule.
The key activities performed include:
- Reactor design and optimisation.
- Systematic lab scale testing and validation.

Avances que van más allá del estado de la técnica e impacto potencial esperado (incluida la repercusión socioeconómica y las implicaciones sociales más amplias del proyecto hasta la fecha)

NUADA has completed the design of new MOF reactors and validated them at lab scale.
These modelling and empirical results confirm the improved performance KPIs and set the basis for scale-up tasks.
