The Carbon Capture Simulation Initiative (CCSI), led by the Office of Fossil Energy’s (FE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), released the CCSI Toolset as open source software.
The CCSI Toolset is the nation’s only suite of computational tools and models designed to help maximize learning and reduce cost and risk during the scale-up process for carbon capture technologies. The toolset is critically important to perform much of the design and calculations, thus reducing the cost of both pilot projects and commercial facilities.
The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Fossil Energy (FE) has announced up to $7 million in federal funding for cost-shared research and development (R&D) projects under the funding opportunity announcement (FOA) DE-FOA-0001830, Transformational Pre-Combustion Carbon Capture Technologies.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has selected six projects to receive $17.6 million in federal funding under the Office of Fossil Energy’s Novel and Enabling Carbon Capture Transformational Technologies funding opportunity announcement.
A patented technology from NETL inventors offers a cost-effective way to enable low-carbon electricity generation and efficient fuel processing, among other benefits.
A new technology invented by NETL researchers is changing the game for carbon capture by offering an effective way to separate carbon dioxide (CO2) from flue gas.
A large-scale project, made possible through NETL support, is capturing about one million tons of carbon dioxide per year from a state-of-the-art hydrogen production facility in Texas and forging a successful new direction for hydrogen production technology.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has collaborated with industry in cost-sharing arrangements to advance the next generation of technologies that will capture carbon from industrial sources and either store or beneficially re-use them. Some of these technologies have advanced to a scale that can be readily replicated and deployed into industry.
Petra Nova, a joint venture between NRG Energy Inc. (NRG) and JX Nippon Oil and Gas Exploration Corporation (JX Nippon) is wrapping up a hugely successful first year of operations, culminating in being named POWER magazine’s plant of the year.
Petra Nova began commercial operation at the W. A. Parish Plant in Thompsons, Texas, southwest of Houston January 10, 2017. The project is designed to capture 1.6 million tons of carbon per year using the Kansai Mitsubishi Carbon Dioxide Recovery (KM-CDR) Process©.
The world’s largest post-combustion carbon capture system has reached a major milestone, capturing more than 1 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) for use in enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
