IGCC & CO₂ Separation/Recovery Technology

CCS (Carbon Capture & Storage) technology plays a key role in using coal in an environmentally-friendly manner.

The combination of coal gasification and CO₂ separation/recovery technology is a challenging field in order to reduce the CO₂ emissions from the coal-fired thermal power plants.

On the other hand, the CO₂ separation/recovery technology has been widely commercialized in the fields of refining, petrochemical and gas processing industries.

This study reported the present status of applicable technologies and the subjects to be investigated further to incorporating IGCC facilities.
