Cryogenic Carbon Capture and Use C3U

The main scope of this project is to establish well-documented and quantified technoeconomic scenarios for grid balancing by cryogenic carbon capture coupled with synthesis of transportation fuels. The project is expected to provide the foundation for a demonstration project as the next step.

Project description
The main scope of this project is to establish well-documented and quantified technoeconomic scenarios for grid balancing by cryogenic carbon capture coupled with synthesis of transportation fuels. As the first step,  site specific data will be collected to assess the process integration potential (capture and fuel synthesis) with the existing operation of the cement and CHP plants. The potential (capture and fuel synthesis) with the existing operation of the cement and CHP plants. The carbon capture will leverage a recent breakthrough in the cryogenic capture technology that has proven superior to any other capture technology in terms of energy efficiency and cost. The project will validate the capture technology for the two sides considered. Topologies for the integration and further processing of the captured CO2 to synthetic fuels will be investigated in terms of cost, energy efficiency and carbon efficiency. A central part of the project will also be to assess the feasibility og demonstration plant loacted at one of the two sites. The results from the project are expected to form the necessary foundation for this assessment.
