technology pre-combustion carbon capture technology is proven Pre-combustion carbon capture is the removal of the carbon content of a fossil fuel before burning it. This is done through: 1. Conversion of fossil fuels into hydrogen + carbon dioxide in a reformer or gasifier, followed by a shift reaction • There are 133 large gasifiers in operation around the world, available from 5 major global manufacturers 2. Burning Hydrogen as a clean fuel 22 gasifiers for power (Integrated Gasifier • Many gas turbines around the world Combined Cycle – IGCC – plants) are already are already burning hydrogen in a producing about 7700MWe in total, without syngas mix capturing their CO 2.
technology geologic carbon storage technology is proven The Carbon Dioxide captured from the plant is compressed, then transported and stored securely in underground formations • More than 30 million tonnes of CO 2 is currently injected for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) into oil fields in the United States alone annually, and has been since the early 1970s. • BP has been injecting and storing some one million tonnes of CO 2 each year at In Salah in Algeria since 2002. Oil and gas fields are the obvious initial CO 2 storage sites. Their geology is thoroughly understood, and the effectiveness has been proven through the containment of oil and gas over millions of years.
