Carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) is a family of methods to reduce the emission of CO2 from fossil-fueled power plants. * Pre-combustion carbon capture occurs before the combustion process (through fuel gasification with oxygen, e.g., integrated IGCC coal gasification technology). * Post-combustion carbon capture occurs after the combustion process (capturing CO2 from flue gas, e.g., using chemical absorption, physical adsorption, membrane separation, or the use of a chemical loop). * Oxy-combustion carbon capture occurs after the combustion process in an oxygen atmosphere by separating CO2 generated during the oxy-combustion process, e.g., using an oxygen gas turbine. The oxy-fuel combustion CCS technology used in the Allam cycle shows a higher efficiency of 55–59%, which is higher when compared to that of a combined cycle power plant with a carbon capture unit.

# Pre-Combustion Carbon Capture Research. Compared to post-combustion technology, which removes dilute CO2 (~5-15% CO2 concentration) from flue gas streams and is at low pressure, the shifted synthesis gas stream is rich in CO2 and at higher pressure, which allows for easier removal before the H2 is combusted. Due to the more concentrated CO2, pre-combustion capture typically is more efficient but the capital costs of the base gasification process are often more expensive than traditional pulverized coal power plants. Today’s commercially available pre-combustion carbon capture technologies generally use physical or chemical adsorption processes, and will cost around $60/tonne to capture CO2 generated by an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plant. The pre-combustion capture research activities will coordinate closely with the gasification and advanced turbine programs to ensure that pre-combustion capture technologies can be successfully integrated into an IGCC facility. Advances in those programs will also help meet the goal of limiting the cost of pre-combustion capture to $30/tonne.

There are three main methods for capturing CO2 from fossil fuel combustion:. ### **Post-combustion capture**. In post-combustion capture, fuel is burned as usual in a (more-or-less) unmodified power plant. The fact that post-combustion can be retrofitted to existing power plants means that such demonstration projects have thus far been more common than for other capture technologies. Pre-combustion capture, typically operated with Integrated Gasification Combined Cycles (IGCC), involves gasification and partial oxidisation of the fuel to produce CO2 and hydrogen which are then separated, commonly using physical absorption processes. Oxyfuel combustion separates oxygen from air using established cryogenic methods and then burns the coal or gas fuel in a mixture of that oxygen, often combined with recycled flue gas to regulate the temperature of combustion. Advantages of oxyfuel are the comparative ease with which CO2 can be separated (no solvent is required) which allows for very high capture levels, small physical size of the unit, and the possibility of retrofit to an existing plant with some alterations.
