CO2 Recovery: lowering costs and protecting the environment

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, and although significant amounts are liberated during fermentation, at the same time, many breweries purchase large amounts of CO2 for use in their own production processes. The research project “Capturing and Storage of Carbon Dioxide (CaSCaDe)” at the University of Bayreuth is investigating how and to what extent greenhouse gas emissions can be reduced with an adsorptive method for carbon dioxide recovery. In addition, the quality of the recovered carbon dioxide is evaluated. The goal of this project is to make a viable contribution to climate protection while reducing costs and enabling companies to secure their own supply of carbon dioxide [4].
