Description
The
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) through the National Energy Technology
Laboratory (NETL) has released DE-FOA-0001830 entitled “Transformational
Pre-combustion Carbon Capture Technologies“. The Carbon Capture program
focuses on developing technologies to control emissions from either
post-combustion units (e.g., pulverized coal) or pre-combustion (e.g.,
Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle, or IGCC). First Generation technologies
(i.e. those that are currently being demonstrated or that are commercially
available) exist, and Second Generation Technologies (i.e., those that include
technology components currently in R&D and are expected to be ready for
demonstration in the 2020-2025 timeframe) have shown potential for improvement
towards an economic goal for cost of capture at less than $40/tonne,
but are still cost prohibitive for broad deployment to the existing coal fleet.
For Fiscal Year (FY) 2018, the Carbon Capture Program will solicit applications
under this FOA to develop technologies in the area of pre-combustion carbon
capture. Approaches that look at either hydrogen (H2) separation or carbon
dioxide (CO2) separation will be accepted.
