Extensive research and projections have suggested that DAC has tremendous potential to achieve global climate change mitigation goals. The feasibility of DAC is proven but work is required to bridge gaps in DAC research to make it affordable and scalable. Process modelling is an approach used to address these concerns. Current DAC research in system design and modelling is discrete and existing models have limited use cases. This thesis is focused on the development of a generalized process mass transfer model for the capture stage of solid sorbent DAC contactors.
