## Energy Procedia. Volume 63, 2014, Pages 18-26. # CO2 Capture and Storage from Fossil Fuel Power Plants☆. Author links open overlay panel, ,. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.egypro.2014.11.003Get rights and content. Under a Creative Commons license. ## Abstract. Fossil fuel power plants generate significant amounts of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, which are believed to be the main cause of climate change. Among CO2 mitigation options, carbon capture and storage is considered the only technology that can significantly reduce the emissions of CO2 from fossil fuel combustion sources. There are mainly three technological routes for CO2 capture from power plants: post-combustion, pre-combustion and oxy-fuel combustion. Unfortunately, their application may reduce the net efficiency of a plant by up to 14% points and increase the cost of electricity by 30-70%. This paper briefly reviews the performance of power plants with carbon capture, and presents current research and development, and demonstration activities on CCS. ## Keywords. : Peer-review under responsibility of the Organizing Committee of GHGT-12.

The program sponsors technology development ranging in scale from laboratory projects using simulated gases, to engineering-scale projects (up to 12 megawatt-electric [MWe]) testing technologies at operating power plants on actual flue gas, to front-end engineering and design (FEED) studies focusing on carbon capture systems integrated into specific operating power plants combined with long duration carbon storage or conversion of the CO2 into long lived products in preparation for future commercial demonstration. To facilitate wide-scale deployment of carbon capture systems, the Point Source Carbon Capture Program supports the execution of **FEED studies** to provide estimates of the capital and operating costs for installing commercial-scale, advanced post-combustion CO2 capture technologies that have achieved a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of at least 6 at new or existing power plants. In addition to supporting the testing of integrated CO2 capture systems at operating power plants, NETL partners with Technology Centre Mongstad (TCM) in Norway, the world’s largest open access test center for carbon capture technologies, to conduct engineering-scale test campaigns under actual flue gas conditions.

In the near and medium term, retrofitting the power sector with carbon capture technologies addresses emissions from the existing fossil-fuelled fleet of power plants. Of the remaining coal-fired power generation, 40% comes from plants fitted with carbon capture technologies. The IEA has outlined options to address the emissions of the existing coal-fired power plant fleet featuring three pillars: a) the retrofit of plants with carbon capture technologies, b) the repurposing of coal plants to provide flexibility, and c) the gradual phase-out of plants where carbon capture is not possible. Within the power sector, generators that utilise bioenergy with carbon capture have the potential to offset emissions from the use of (for example) gas-fired peaking power plants, which play a key role in supporting the cost-effective integration of renewables but are incompatible with a net-zero power system. The unique ability to achieve negative emissions through carbon capture technologies may also open up the possibility of allowing these plants to run at high capacity factors even in a power system with high renewable shares.

These terms are widely used in the industry, and we decided to adapt them for the main categories in our overview of carbon capture technologies in CaptureMap. However when we looked into the details we started running into issues linked to different definitions and criteria for categorising capture projects. Our take on it is that those capture technology categories were mostly defined at a time where power plants were the main targets for carbon capture, and therefore combustion was the main process to be considered. Next on our overview of carbon capture technologies we will talk about oxy-fuel, since it is, in our view, the category most related to post-combustion. > Pre-combustion carbon capture converts fuel into a mixture of hydrogen, CO2 and other gases, through gasification or reforming processes. As mentioned earlier, most of the capacity for carbon capture projects already in operations is concentrated within inherent process capture and pre-combustion. This indicates that the actual capture technology is likely to be inherent process capture or pre-combustion, increasing further the share of capture projects capacities within those categories.

* Carbon capture, use, and storage technologies can capture more than 90 percent of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power plants and industrial facilities. This natural gas processing plant serves ExxonMobil, Chevron, and Anadarko Petroleum carbon dioxide pipeline systems to oil fields in Wyoming and Colorado and is the largest commercial carbon capture facility in the world at 7 million tons of capacity annually. The first ethanol plant to deploy carbon capture, it supplies 170,000 tons of carbon dioxide per year to Chaparral Energy, which uses it for EOR in Texas oil fields. Carbon dioxide from a gas processing plant owned by DTE Energy is captured at a rate of approximately 1,000 tons per day and injected into a nearby oil field operated by Core Energy in the Northern Reef Trend of the Michigan Basin. This project involves capturing carbon dioxide from natural gas processing for use in enhanced oil recovery in the Lula and Sapinhoá oil fields.

But it’s possible to remove the climate-warming CO 2 from flue gas before it’s vented, using a technology called [carbon capture and storage](https://climate.mit.edu/explainers/carbon-capture) (CCS). Because some energy goes to run the capture equipment—energy that operators can’t then sell to the [electric grid](https://climate.mit.edu/explainers/electric-grid)—the plant must charge more for the energy it _does_ sell to make a profit.
