The question is how to anchor PRCFD models to real-world fixed-bed reactors. This review focuses on approaches to that question, including developing the ability to obtain more useful PRCFD models by increasing the number of particles or including more realistic reaction kinetics, improving PRCFD methodology, applying PRCFD to new reactor configurations and non-spherical particle shapes, and using PRCFD to provide a fundamental understanding that can be transferred into effective continuum models at the full reactor scale. Future directions are discussed, including the use of tools such as machine learning to extend the capabilities of PRCFD modeling.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":292,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering","volume":"51 ","pages":"Article 101225"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146022527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work critically examines the current landscape of solid sorbents for DAC, focusing on their performance, durability, and environmental impact. Key sorbent classes — amine-functionalized materials, carbonates, zeolites, and metal-organic frameworks — are evaluated in terms of CO₂ uptake, energy requirements, and life cycle emissions. A novel exergetic efficiency metric is introduced, incorporating sorbent degradation to better reflect real-world performance. Structured supports such as laminates and monoliths are discussed for their role in enhancing mass transfer and reducing pressure drop, though often at increased cost and environmental burden. Life cycle assessment (LCA) results highlight that energy consumption dominates DAC’s carbon footprint, with sorbent-related impacts becoming significant only for short-lived or energy-intensive materials. Emerging materials like hydroxylated activated carbon, along with alternative processes such as moisture swing adsorption and electrochemical DAC, offer promising pathways to reduce energy demand and improve sustainability. The work underscores the need for integrated assessments that link sorbent properties, process design, and environmental metrics from early development stages. Future research should prioritise sorbent longevity, comprehensive kinetic data, and inclusion of support structures in LCA models to enable cost-effective and climate-positive DAC deployment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":292,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering","volume":"50 ","pages":"Article 101195"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145412648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It serves two key roles: (a) when integrated with Carbon Capture and Storage (DAC-CCS), it enables permanent CO₂ removal to offset emissions from hard-to-abate sources like aviation; and (b) when combined with Carbon Capture and Utilization (DAC-CCU), it provides non-fossil CO₂ for producing defossilized fuels and zero-carbon chemicals. To fulfill these roles, DAC systems must be scalable and economically viable. While academic studies often focus on assessing sorbent performance under a limited range of weather conditions and for limited periods, we advocate that industrial scale deployment demands DAC systems with additional key features such as low pressure drop, high reliability for long periods (years) in a wide range of weather conditions (temperature, relative humidity), resistance to fouling from particulates in air, and without loss of performance by reingestion of CO2 depleted air. These key features are more commonly addressed in patent literature by companies nearing commercialization rather than in academic publications.
