membrane contactors; physical separation Will need to consider how to integrate with SOx, NOx, particulates controls and possibly mercury removal © IEA Clean Coal Centre www.iea-coal.org.uk Technologies - PCC-ZETs … (2) CO2 caputre – oxygen firing with recycle flue gas (oxycoal firing): • • • • • • • Demonstrated for power generation from coal only in pilot test rigs Feasibility study for retrofit 30 MWe coal unit in Australia Large pilot plant planned by Vatenfall next to SchwarzePumpe power station in Germany Efficiency penalty appears similar to chemical scrubbing New oxygen production technology would reduce penalty Potential issues: corrosion, deposition, in-leakage of air Co-disposal with other captured pollutants may allow close to true zero emissions © IEA Clean Coal Centre www.iea-coal.org.uk Possible pathway to PCC-ZETs to 2025 2015 2005 Advanced USC PCC demo non-CO2 capture Hg activities: removal methods characterisation SO2, NOx, particulates control: reduce cost of systems S/C PCC First commercial sales PCC-ZETs retrofits and new 2025 Advanced USC PCC commercial non-CO2 capture Advanced PCC-ZETs CO2 capture: Large plant chemical scrubbing demo CO2 capture R&D activities: New solvents, heat integration Other absorbents Membrane contactors Adsorption Oxy-coal test programmes Oxy-coal large plant demo Oxy-coal demo © IEA Clean Coal Centre ITM oxygen plants commercial www.iea-coal.org.uk R&D needs – PCC and PCC-ZETs • • • • • • Ferritic materials and nickel alloys for higher steam conditions Widen range of deep SO2 removal systems Develop SCR for deep NOx removal from coal-fired plants Develop mercury removal and measurement systems CO2 capture by flue gas scrubbing - new solvents CO2 capture from flue gas using membrane contactors and adsorption techniques • Oxy-coal: develop NOx removal from CO2 disposal stream • Oxy-coal: develop mercury removal from CO2 disposal stream • Oxy-coal combustion: explore process implications of co• • disposal Oxy-coal: testing of materials for high steam parameters Scale up ion transport membranes for oxygen production © IEA Clean Coal Centre www.iea-coal.org.uk CO2 pre-combustion capture for IGCC - ZETs Hydrogen to gas turbine Coal plus oxygen Gasification and solids removal Shift Steam © IEA Clean Coal Centre Acid gas removal system CO2 to storage Hydrogen sulphide to sulphur recovery www.iea-coal.org.uk IGCC - ZETs CO2 capture – pre-combustion: • • • • For CO2 capture, syngas would be shifted to CO2 plus additional H2, CO2 separated and the H2 burnt in the gas turbine CO2 in relatively high concentration, capture with lower efficiency penalty compared with PCC plant Experience of E-class GTs on 95% H2. F-turbines under development Syngas shift requires steam - quench gasifier simplifies and reduces cost Integrating enhanced abatement of conventional emissions: • • • • • SO2 - already very low levels.

Continued focus on Carbon Capture and Storage Re-introduction of Clean Coal Technology in recognition of the drive for greater efficiency whilst CCS is developed and deployed Technology Platform to advise on strategy and direction of these two elements - P Dechamps – Nov 2004 - 22 Directorate General for Research Conclusions • ZETs needed to maintain power security • Targets are suggested for emissions of conventional pollutants and mercury as well as for CO2 for ZETs • As platforms for ZETs, supercritical PCC and IGCC most likely to dominate future markets • Incentives needed for conventional IGCC demonstrations also as a foundation for IGCC-ZETs • Concentrate on increased efficiency and lower emissions of conventional pollutants whilst developing and deploying CCS technologies • Does Poland and other Central European states need to become more engaged in the drive towards ZETs? © IEA Clean Coal Centre www.iea-coal.org.uk
