Description

•Design, Build and Commence Operation of a Solvent-Based Post Combustion Carbon Capture Technology to Separate Carbon Emissions from an Emissions Stream at the Cane Run Generating Station (Approximately 67,000 TONNE-CO2/YEAR) and Validate at Least 90% Carbon Capture Efficiency and 95% CO2 Purity Under Real Exhaust Conditions. •Complete at Least One (1) Year of Large-Scale Pilot Testing of a Carbon Capture Technology Under Real Exhaust Conditions (E.g., Normal Steady-State and Flexible Operations) Covering the Full Spectrum of Performance Conditions, Meeting Key Technical Performance Targets, and Collect Required Data to Quantify Other Project Benefits or Negative Impacts. •De-Risk CO2 Capture for Natural Gas Combined Cycle Commercial Scale Application by Designing, Building, Operating, and Analyzing the University of Kentucky Advanced Heat-Integrated CO2 Capture Technology from Natural Gas Combined Cycle Flue Gas. •Validate the University of Kentucky CO2 Capture Process Under a Variety of Dynamic, Real World Operating Conditions from a Natural Gas Combined Cycle Unit. Process Validation Includes But Is Not Limited to Performance Analysis on Dynamic Responsiveness, Solvent Kinetics, and Operational Flexibility.
