Cost of Capturing CO 2 from Industrial Sources

The objective of this study is to provide an estimate of the cost to capture carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from select industrial processes (ammonia, ethylene oxide, ethanol, natural gas processing, coal-to-liquids, gas-to-liquids, refinery hydrogen, cement, iron/steel, and pulp/paper). Each of the ten processes were chosen for analysis due to either the high purity of the CO 2 emission source (99–100 mole percent CO 2 ) or the large quantity of CO 2 potentially available. For each industrial process considered, available plant information, such as existing average plant size, projected new development plant size, or existing plant operations data was used to develop a reference plant for this study.

User Guide for the Public Industrial CO2 Capture Retrofit Database Models

OBSOLETE CCRD – SUPERSEDED<p>The National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) user manual accompanies the carbon capture retrofit database (CCRD) model that allows users to evaluate the cost of carbon capture on industrial sources (ammonia, cement, ethanol, hydrogen, and natural gas processing). The model was created by the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) based on the technical report titled "Cost of Capturing CO2 from Industrial Sources" (NETL/DOE-2022/3319). Revised 12/21/22.</p>

Cost of Capturing CO 2 from Industrial Sources

This systems analysis by the National Energy Technology Laboratory's Strategic Systems Analysis and Engineering directorate) evaluates the cost and performance impacts of capturing CO 2 emissions from nine industrial sources (ammonia, ethylene oxide, and ethanol production, natural gas process, coal- and gas-to-liquids, refinery hydrogen production, iron and steel, and cement manufacturing). The industrial sectors examined are segregated according to the CO 2 purity level of the flue gas stream, prior to treatment. Certain sectors naturally produce a gas stream that is inherently high in CO 2 purity, and these sectors can achieve 99-100% removal. Other sectors produce a lower purity CO 2 flue gas stream and achieving 90-99% removal requires deeper levels of treatment, adding cost. In addition to the report that documents the analysis, a Carbon Capture Retrofit Database tool was also created that allows users to apply CO 2 capture to selected industries, to evaluate the cost of capture and compare across multiple plants, as well as across different industries. Users have the ability to change select input parameters (such as fuel price, capture rate, and financing assumptions) to evaluate the impact on industrial CO 2 capture economics.
