| dc.title | Solar-driven indoor CO2 capture system for sustainable building performance | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | A solar-powered indoor carbon dioxide capture system for high-occupancy buildings was investigated. The purpose of this system is to improve indoor air quality and reduce energy intake of ventilation. The system uses photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) collection mechanism and metal-organic frameworks (MOF) adsorption for CO2 reduction. The performance of the system in temperate, tropical and cold regions was investigated by simulation modeling. The results show that the system can ensure effective carbon dioxide capture and save electricity cost with proper operating and maintenance. The simulation results also show that the performance of the system will be affected by seasonal changes due to the variation of solar radiation. Due to the reduction of solar radiation, the performance of the system will decline in winter. This study also analyzed the financial and ecological energy of the system, which can help achieve the carbon cycle goals. Results in this study indicate that the system is expected to become a lasting choice to improve indoor air quality of high-density buildings such as classrooms and offices. Future research could focus on making full use of weak light conditions for systematic layout, studying the utilization approaches of CO2, and debugging the system to confirm its performance. | en_US |
