► The idea of freezing CO2 out of flue gas makes use of Stirling coolers is novel. ► The novel capture system can achieve above 80% recovery with 3.4MJ/kg CO2. ► The system avoids regeneration and pressure issues in other technologies. In previous research, a cryogenic system based on Stirling coole...
