| description | <p dir="ltr">To promote the adoption of Direct Air Capture (DAC) systems, this paper proposes and tests a photovoltaic-powered DAC system in a generic residential building located in Qatar. The proposed DAC system can efficiently reduce CO<sub>2</sub> concentration in a living space, thus providing an incentive to individuals to adopt it. The ventilation performance of the building is determined using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, undertaken with ANSYS-CFD. The CFD model was validated using microclimate-air quality dataloggers. The simulated velocity was 1.4 m/s and the measured velocity was 1.35 m/s, which corresponds to a 3.5% error. The system decarbonizes air supplied to the building by natural ventilation or ventilation according to the ASHRAE standards. Furthermore, the performance of the photovoltaic system is analyzed using the ENERGYPLUS package of the Design Builder software. We assume that 75% of CO<sub>2</sub> is captured. In addition, a preliminary characterization of the overall system’s performance is determined. It is determined that the amount of CO<sub>2</sub> captured by the system is 0.112 tones/year per square meter of solar panel area. A solar panel area of 19 m<sup>2</sup> is required to decarbonize the building with natural ventilation, and 27 m<sup>2</sup> is required in the case of ventilation according to the ASHRAE standard.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Energies<br>License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.3390/en16145583" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.3390/en16145583</a></p> |
