High capacity sorbents and optimization of existing pollution control technologies for mercury capture in industrial combustion systems (MERCURYCAP)
Start date: Oct 1, 2007, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
This proposal addresses the global problem of mercury (Hg) emissions from coal-fired plants and the current position of conventional air pollution control devices (APCDs) only providing partial solution for oxidized Hg capture, particularly for low-rank coals.Our previous work has shown that (1) low-cost gasification chars have superior mercury capture performance than current benchmark carbons; a ...

Development of postcombustion CO2 capture with CaO in a large testing facility: “CaOling” (CaOling)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2013,
This project is aiming at the scaling-up of one of the most promising concepts for CO2 capture from coal power plants: postcombustion carbonate looping systems. This project focuses on the experimental pilot testing and scaling up of the process at scales in the 1 MW range. The 1 Mw carbonate looping pilot will be built in the Hunosa 50 Mwe CFB coal power plant of “La Pereda”, using a side stream ...
