oxy-fuel

WRT CCS, the hard thing is capturing the CO2 from the exhaust stream of coal-burning plants, but it's not that hard in oxy-fuel or other high efficiency systems where the exhaust stream is pure enough.

Currently, three main approaches are available to capture CO2 from large scale industrial facilities or power plants: (1) post-combustion capture, (2) pre-combustion capture, and (3) oxy-fuel combustion capture.

Cost estimates for CCS typically present a range of values and depend on many variables, such as the type of capture technology (post-combustion, pre-combustion, oxy-fuel), whether the plant represents new construction or is a retrofit to an existing plant, whether the CCS project is in a demonstration or a commercial stage, and a variety of other factors.

Schwarze-Pumpe 30 MW oxy-fuel pilot plant in Germany has been operating since mid-2008.

Thermal sprays include high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) and plasma sprays.

In more modern furnaces, oxygen is also lanced into the scrap, combusting or cutting the steel and burning out carbon, and sometimes chemical heat is provided by wall-mounted oxy-fuel burners.

Moreover, oxy-fuel combustion technology may be able to be retro-fitted to existing power plants.

Combined with carbon sequestration, oxy-fuel combustion holds promise for achieving near zero emissions from coal-based electricity generation.

For example, extensive work is being undertaken in Australia and elsewhere on the proving of oxy-fuel combustion for coal-based power stations which involves the burning of coal with added oxygen.
