Additional Information

Agency Name: National Energy Technology Laboratory
Description: This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is
specifically focused on
developing technologies for CO2 capture and purification that can be
retrofitted to existing pulverized coal (PC) power plants. This is driven
by
the fact that existing coal-fired power plants produce a large fraction of
the
current CO2 emissions from all fossil-fuel-based sources, and only about 3
GW
of the existing coal-fired fleet is projected to retire by 2030. Therefore,
it
is possible that future climate change regulations could target a reduction
in
CO2 emissions from the existing fleet of coal boilers. To prepare for this

possibility, cost effective technologies are sought for capturing CO2 from
PC-based power plants. It is anticipated that the technologies developed
under
this funding opportunity may also have application to new PC plants as
well.
Applications are sought for bench-scale development and testing; and
slipstream
development and testing of advanced post-combustion CO2 capture
technologies.
The overall technical and cost goal of this FOA is the development of
advanced
CO2 capture and separation technologies that can achieve at least 90% CO2
removal (captured CO2 must represent at least 90% of the carbon in the fuel
fed
to the power plant) at no more than a 35% increase in cost of electricity
produced at the plant (1). A detailed background on this target can be
found
on the National Energy Technology Laboratory¿s Innovations for Existing
Plants
website: http://www.netl.doe.gov/technologies/coalpower/ewr/co2/goals.html

Carbon dioxide capture systems can be divided into three general
categories:
post-combustion, pre-combustion, and oxy-combustion/chemical looping. This
FOA
is focusing on post-combustion CO2 capture for existing boilers.
Pre-combustion CO2 capture, oxycombustion/chemical looping, biological
capture,
and CO2 compression projects are NOT being sought under this Announcement.

Specifically, applications are sought in the following Areas of Interest:
Bench-Scale Development and Testing of Post-combustion CO2 Capture
Area of Interest B1: Membranes
Area of Interest B2: Solvents
Area of Interest B3: Condensed Phase Capture

Slipstream Development and Testing of Post-combustion CO2 Capture
Area of Interest S1: Membranes
Area of Interest S2: Solvents
Area of Interest S3: Solid Sorbents

(1) The cost component includes not only the costs associated with CO2
capture, regeneration, and compression, but also includes CO2
transportation,
storage, and monitoring costs. It should be assumed that the CO2 will be
transported no more than 50 miles from the power plant and would be stored
in a
saline formation. In a typical CO2 capture system analysis, the
transportation, storage and monitoring costs represent about 4% of the
increase
in cost of energy services. Therefore, applicants should consider all costs
in
demonstrating that the proposed technology can achieve the 35% or below
cost
target.
