CFB Technolgy for Carbon Capturing

CFB Technolgy for Carbon Capturing

Foster Wheeler AG announced today that a subsidiary of its Global Power Group has been awarded a contract by Fundación Ciudad de la Energía , an institution created by the Spanish Government, for the design and supply of a circulating fluidized-bed unit for testing Foster Wheeler’s Flexi-BurnTM carbon capturing CFB technology.

Flexi-BurnTM is Foster Wheeler’s version of carbon capture technology based on oxygen combustion (commonly referred to as “oxy-combustion” or “oxy-fuel”) for coal plants. Unlike, pre-combustion (IGCC plant) or post-combustion technologies (amine CO2 scrubber placed behind conventional coal boilers), oxygen combustion technologies allow the boiler to produce a CO2 rich flue gas, thus reducing the need for expensive and energy-intensive CO2 gas separation equipment.

The CIUDEN unit will be designed to test burn a wide range of domestic (anthracite) and imported coals, as well as biomass. One of the objectives of the incorporation of this unit into the TDP is to validate Foster Wheeler’s Flexi-BurnTM CFB technology at the required scale before proceeding to a possible full-scale demonstration plant.

Unquestіonably bеlieve that whiсh you ѕaid.
Your favoritе juѕtifiсatіon
seemеd tо bе on the intеrnet the еaѕieѕt thing to be aware οf.
Ι say to yοu, I certainly get іrked while ρeοple considеr wоrrіеѕ thаt
they plаinly don't know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks
