Joint R&D Activity on CCS Technology

摘要

Fortum and Metso have joined forces in exploring oxyfuel combustion technology. Oxyfuel combustion is part of a technical concept which enables carbon capture in power and heat generation. The three-year R&D project is partly funded by Tekes, the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation.rnFortum and Metso agreed a R&D co-operation to determine how oxyfuel combustion technology could be implemented in an industrial-sized power plant using circulating fluidized bed technology. A key feature of such boilers is that they can be operated on a wide selection of fuels, like coal and biomass separately or together as any mixture.
