Objetivo
ENCAP aims at technologies that meet the target of at least 90% CO2-capture rate and 50% Co2-capture-cost reduction. A group of 33 legal entities comprising 6 large European fossil fuel end users, 11 leading technology providers, and 16 high ranked RTD providers has agreed to establish the ENCAP consortium.
ENCAP is organised as an integrated project (IP) having an impact of the results on the medium to longer term. The objective is to develop new pre-combustion CO2-capture technologies and processes for power generation based on fossil fuels - mainly hard coal, lignite and natural gas - that are conceived as affordable and clean, and which can be integrated with sustainable energy systems.
The RTD activities are structured in 6 sub-projects that directly meet the stated objectives of the Work Programme (WP).
These sub-projects are:
SP1 Process and Power Systems
SP2 Pre-Combustion Decarbonisation Technologies
SP3 OxyFuel Boiler Technologies
SP4 Chemical Looping Combustion
SP5 High-Temperature Oxygen Generation for Power Cycles
SP6 Novel Pre-Combustion Capture Concepts
ENCAP will, in compliance with the stated objectives of the WP perform research and development on pre-combustion CO2 capture (incl. pre-normative and socio-economic impacts) and validate by testing technical and economic feasibility of concepts, and also interact with research-related networks and carry out training and dissemination. The project will deliver results that have the potential for a wide commercial exploitation with a time horizon 2015-2020. ENCAP will generate knowledge and results that enable power companies to decide to launch a new design project by 2008-2010 aimed at a large-scale demonstration plant. Main risks are scientific and technological. The work will enhance the competitiveness of European industry and contribute to the creation of a European Research Area for CO2 capture.
