Post-combustion CCS: what energy penalties?
…energy penalties? We define CCS energy penalties as the loss of useful energy across an end-to-end CCS value chain, versus the useful energy that would have been available without using…
Hot potassium carbonate CCS: energy economics?
…for more background, please see our overview of thermodynamics and CCS energy penalties). Energy penalties for CCS using hot potassium carbonate in percent kg per kWh and GJ per ton…
MHI CCS technology: performance, costs and emissions?
…three decades, by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, from solvents through to entire CCS plants. This data file aggregates useful reference data-points for decision-makers who care about parameters like CCS economics, energy…
CCS challenges: by any amines necessary?
…2050, of which one half, or 3 GTpa is conventional CCS. Data are given for the costs and energy penalties of conventional CCS — spanning across amine plants, CO2 pipelines,…
Entropy CCS: natural gas CCS breakthrough?
Advantage Energy is a Montney gas and oil producer, which recently sourced a $300M investment from Brookfield to scale up its Entropy23 amine blend for natural-gas CCS. Entropy CCS technology…
Post-combustion CCS: what energy penalties?
…the other 55-65%? Accessing this waste heat can mean the difference between 20% and 60% energy penalties for post-combustion CCS. This 10-page note explores how much heat can be recaptured….
CCS absorbers: unit sizing and residence times?
Post-combustion CCS plants flow CO2 into an absorber unit, where it will react with a solvent, usually a cocktail of amines. This data-file quantifies operating parameters for CCS absorbers, such…
CANSOLV: CCS amine case study?
…and 1MTpa CCS project. Although net output at the CCS-linked unit has reduced from 160MW to 110MW by running CCS. And performance has been erratic. The annual run rate for…
Costs of CCS with the amine process?
…This note is worth reading. Energy penalties of post-combustion CCS are also calculated in the data-file, as a function of electricity uses (kWh/ton), amine regeneration energy (GJ/ton), different fuel types,…
Carbon capture and storage: research conclusions?
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) prevents CO2 from entering the atmosphere. Options include the amine process, blue hydrogen, novel combustion technologies and cutting edge sorbents and membranes. Total CCS costs…
