Project: Innovative methods for chemical looping carbon dioxide capture applied to energy conversion processes for decarbonised energyvectors poly-generation;
Finaciar support: Romanian National Authority for Scientific Research, CNCS - UEFISCDI
Project code: PN-II-ID-PCE-2011-3-0028
Contract number: 95/2011
Period: 2011 - 2016

       This project has as main aim to propose and evaluate from techno-economical and environmental impact perspectives innovative chemical looping methods for CO₂ capture applied to various energy conversion processes (combustion, gasification, catalytic reforming etc.) of fossil fuels and renewable energy sources (e.g. biomass). Evaluated energy conversion processes will poly-generate decarbonised energy vectors emphasizing systems for hydrogen and power co-generation with CCS with following main characteristics: plant capacity 400 – 500 MW net electricity and up to 200 MW hydrogen (LHV), 0 – 100 % flexibility degree in hydrogen and power co-generation ratio, min. 90 % carbon capture rate.
