OCTAVIUS: a FP7 project demonstrating CO2 capture technologies
conference paper
The OCTAVIUS project (Optimisation of CO2 Capture Technology Allowing Verification and Implementation at Utility Scale) has started on March 1st 2012 for a period of 5 years, as part of the 7th Framework Programme of the European Commission. Gathering 15 European and 2 South African partners, OCTAVIUS was conceived as contributing to demonstration of integrated concepts for zero emission power plants covering all the components needed for power generation as well as CO2 post-combustion capture and compression facilities. This paper presents the main results obtained within the first two years of the project. These results will be highlighted as follows: - evaluation of tools for steady state and dynamic simulations and cost estimation, - experimentation of the first generation processes carried out on three industrial pilot plants including emissions and degradation measurements but also test of intermittent stripping, - experimentation of the DMXTM process on mini-pilots and techno-economic evaluation of this second generation process for a full-scale application on coal-fired power station, - main dissemination actions organised by the OCTAVIUS project.
