Introduction
The U.S. Department of Energy and its National Energy Technology Laboratory
(NETL) is organizing the Annual NETL CO2 Capture Technology for Existing
Plants R&D Meeting in Pittsburgh, PA, March 24-26, 2009. This meeting will
provide a showcase for the CO2 capture related projects currently funded by the
DOE/NETL Existing Plants program. This meeting will include project updates for
ongoing research efforts along with overviews of recently awarded projects.
The DOE/NETL Existing Plants program has recently been refocused to focus on
technologies capable of capturing greater than 90% of the CO2 from existing
coal-fired power plants at less than a 35% increase in the cost of electrical
services. These technologies are envisioned to be ready for commercial
deployment by 2020.
FOCUS AREAS
Presentations will cover research from external partners and NETL Office of
Research and Development in the following areas:
|
- Post Combustion Capture:
- Membranes
- Sorbents
- Solvents
- Oxycombustion & Chemical
- CO2 Compression
