Deliverables

Documents, reports (6)

Map and quantification of all inputs and outputs for integrated SABR-TCR plant

Map and quantification of all inputs and outputs for integrated SABR-TCR plant. This will use data collected from demonstration-scale facilities (WP 3 and 4) to quantify relevant energy and material inputs and outputs of the SABR-TCR system and create an inventory referred to the functional unit. To be completed between M10 and M15. Refers to task 6.3.

Feedstock composition and system mass/energy balance

To determine feedstock composition and mass/energy balances to inform design specifications and reactor design limits. This task will also establish mass and energybalances for the system to understand flowrates, and process heat/cooling demands. Results and operational experience from dedicated pilot plant facilities at SUS UK and GF will be used as guidelines for the design. To be carried out until M4. Refers to task 2.1.

Design of flue gas infrastructure from defined syngas treatment requirements

Design of flue gas infrastructure from defined syngas treatment requirements. To be completedby M3. Refers to task 2.3

Map of scenarios for alternative use of feedstocks

Map of scenarios for alternative use of feedstocks. Scenarios analysing of alternative uses of the feedstock will be generated together with the feedstock suppliers. To be completed between M10 and M15. Refers to task 6.3.

Catalogue of regulatory issues

Catalogue of regulatory issues. An intelligence and preparatory action aimed at collecting and sharing specific knowledge to better implement project actions and successful solutions delivered by the project in the follow up. The final output is a document and a highly informative, easy to use and simple database. To be completed in M3 and M14. Refers to task 8.4.

State of the art LCA model for SABR-TCR application selected

State of the art LCA model for SABR-TCR application selected. Establishment of state of the art LCA approaches applied to bio-refinery systems will be assessed and taken into consideration for the selection process. To be completed between M1 and M6. Refers to task 6.1.

Demonstrators, pilots, prototypes (1)

Utility connections and site buildings prepared

Utility connections and site buildings prepared. Preparation of the groundwork at Berkeley, UK to accommodate the demonstrator plant. This includes planning detailed structures and operations, and finalisation of a notification procedure to inform local authorities. To be completed between M12 and 49. Refers to task 2.6.

Other (1)

Branding materials

Visual identity and project branding material. All partners will be provided with these materials and will be asked to distribute it at events, workshops and all other opportunities to raise awareness on the project. To be completed between M1 and M4. Refers to task 9.2.

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Website and social media feeds online

A project’s website will be published by month 3, in order to raise awarenessabout the project’s activities. All the website content will be promoted via social media (mainly linkedin and twitter) and electronic newsletter Social media engagement will be sought also through the launch of initiatives such as hashtags to engage with the general public, surveys and spontaneous public consultations among social media users (mainly Linkedin, Twitter). This will be completed between months 1 and 3. Refers to task 9.3.
