QUEENSLAND POST-COMBUSTION TECHNOLOGY TRIAL

摘要

Queensland's Tarong power station captured carbon dioxide (CO_2) for the first time in December 2010 using post-combustion capture (PCC) technology. The pilot plant is designed to capture approximately 1000 tonnes of CO_2 per annum. It will evaluate the effectiveness of CO_2 capture using amine-based solvents and inform the development of efficient and economical PCC technology at commercial scale.
