Cooperative Agreement
Overview
Grant Description
Engineering scale testing of a high-performance solvent for natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) flue gas carbon dioxide (CO2) capture.
The objective of the project is to test the SustenolTM solvent at the host site, National Carbon Capture Center (NCCC), using the Pilot Solvent Test Unit (PSTU) at natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) flue gas conditions to confirm and validate its carbon dioxide (CO2) capture performance (=95% CO2 capture), stability and low emissions for commercial demonstration and deployment.
And demonstrate significant progress towards achieving a 30% reduction in cost of capture versus a reference NGCC power plant with 95% carbon capture efficiency.
