Oxyfuel combustion as CO2 capture technology advancing for practical use - Callide oxyfuel project

Abstract

CCS, CO2 capture and storage, is one of the ways to keep CO 2 concentration in atmosphere to be under certain value in order to mitigate the global warming and expectation for its practical use soars all over the world. IHI have developed the oxyfuel combustion technology as CO 2 capture technology since 1989 and we have been going forward the Callide oxyfuel Project in Australia since 2008. In this paper, we introduce the progress of the Callide oxyfuel Project and the action toward the practical use of the oxyfuel combustion technology.
