Sustainable operation of post-combustion capture plants (SCOPE)
Subcategory (under Clean Energy): CCU
Technology Readiness Level (TRL): TRL 2-3
Technology Outline (Process Description)
DST-CCUS has supported the SCOPE project under the ACT (Accelerating CCS Technology) Call 3 led by GGSIP University, New Delhi and IIT Kharagpur from the Indian side. The Indian consortium is performing a conceptual CO2 capture process design attached to a coal-fired power plant and Fertilizer plant using a benchmark Amine based CO2 capture technology and study the emissions and risks associated.
Salient Features/Advantages
The knowledge gaps and information exchange regarding the Post Combustion Carbon Capture (PCCC) technology, GGSIPU has organized the site visit at TFL Plant at Tuticorin in Tamil Nadu and also interacted with technology providers, regulatory agencies, and industry associations through the knowledge transfer Event- SPRINT (Stakeholder, Policy, Research and Industry Network).
Key Outcomes
CO2 capture utilization and storage may be employed as important pathways en route to meeting India’s Intended Nationally Determined Contributions for the reduction of GHG emissions, especially carbon dioxide. Due to knowledge gaps and available data, India’s environmental emission standards and regulations regarding CCUS (Post-combustion Carbon Capture-amine based) are lacking. The results from this work will bridge this gap firstly.
