Commercial application
- Pilot study has completed
- Industrial scale unit with a capacity of over 10,000 tpa is underway. Construction, commissioning, and startup will be completed by the end of 2021.
CAPEX:
40% lower than traditional amine process
OPEX:
50% lower than traditional calcium-based desulfurization + caustic scrubbing + amine-based decarbonization
Analysis basis
- 2*600 MW power plant
Flue gas data (one absorber):
- Flowrate: 2,100,000 Nm3/h, SO2: 7,000 mg/Nm³, CO2: 12%,annual operating time: 4,000 hours
SO2 content at EADS outlet: 5 mg/Nm³
SO2 content after calcium-based desulfurization: 200mg/Nm³ and SO2 content after caustic scrubbing: 5mg/Nm³
CO2 captured: 10% for producing ammonium bicarbonate and the rest for producing CO2
Note: CAPEX does not include calcium-based desulfurization and EADS
