Additional Analysis of Carbon Capture at Industrial Facilities

Abstract

This poster provides summary cost details for a technoeconomic analysis of CO2 capture from flue gas generated by cement plants, conducted by U.S. Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory and presented at the 2022 Carbon Management Project Review Meeting held in Pittsburgh, PA (August 15-19, 2022). A range of modern cement plant configurations was considered, along with different fuel types (coal, coke, and natural gas) and two levels of CO2 capture (95% and 99%). The sensitivity of capture cost to a range of modeling assumptions (such as fuel price, financing assumptions, utilization rate, and plant size) was also conducted, to show possible cost ranges that could be expected for decarbonization of typical cement plants in the U.S.
