The precipitating carbonate process utilizes the carbonate to bicarbonate reaction for the absorption of CO 2 followed by precipitation and concentration of part of the bicarbonate before entering the regenerator. This process can be an attractive alternative for existing carbon-capture post-combustion technologies because of its energy efficiency potential. Screening pilot plant experiments of the precipitating carbonate process have shown sufficiently high cyclic loadings and confirmed the operation at the predicted low stripping steam rates. The CO 2 vapour pressure of lean solvent entering the absorber was low enough to supply sufficient driving force for 90% removal of CO 2 from flue gas containing 4% CO 2 . This needs to be further demonstrated in a further improved pilot-plant set-up.

In order to show that a CO 2 offshore storage site is secure, it must be effectively characterized and a full understanding of any risks, and their management, must be in place. The Goldeneye candidate CO 2 storage site, centred on a depleted gas field, is used as a worked example. Two techniques for assessing the suitability and containment risks of a potential storage site were employed. A methodology based on Evidence Support Logic (ESL), as implemented in the TESLA software, is used to assess the suitability of the site, while the specific containment risk is assessed using the Bow-tie risk assessment methodology.

The objective of this development program is to assess the feasibility of retrofitting burners for oxy-firing in process heaters. A secondary objective is to confirm this feasibility assessment by conducting single burner oxy-fired testing with flue gas recycle. The CO2 Capture Project commissioned the John Zink Company to conduct oxy-fired testing on two of their conventional process heater burner

As we all know Carbon Capture and Storage is a key technology in helping to move to a less carbon intensive world. The concept is simple: capture the products of combustion that have a deleterious effect on the environment, and dispose of them safely - an elegant disposal solution being to put them back underground. The reality is less simple. There are technical challenges of scale - how to move from the lab to the giant power station - and of safety;geological challenges - how to show that it will not leak out;commercial challenges - how to fund the project, how to manage liability;and finally regulatory and societal challenges stemming from the novelty of the projects. Over the past four years a consortium of shell, National Grid and ScottishPower has been working together, sponsored by the UK Government CCS Demonstration "competition" to try to develop a commercial scale CCS project. The project that emerged from this collaboration involved a proposal to capture two million tonnes of CO2 per annum from Longannet Power Station near Edinburgh, and transport it for storage in the offshore Goldeneye depleted gas reservoir approx 400 km away in the North Sea, starting in 2015/2016. The Consortium engaged on an extensive FEED (Front End Engineering Design) programme, combined with regulatory engagement and significant commercial negotiation. This high level of maturity means that we have what we believe are well thought out answers to the challenges outlined above. This paper describes the journey and discusses the main challenges and their solutions. Copyright 2012, Carbon Management technology Conference.

In May 2011 shell announced its commitment to the development of a Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) concept by taking the Financial Investment Decision on the Prelude FLNG Project. Prelude is located in Australian offshore waters, approximately 475 km north-northeast of Broome and 825 km west of Darwin, and will be shell's and possibly the world's first FLNG development. FLNG offers a number of environmental advantages over traditional onshore LNG developments. This paper describes some of these and the associated environmental permitting/approval conditions for the project.
