The objective of this National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) study is to evaluate the costs associated with capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial processes. Only those processes with effluent streams containing CO2 concentrations higher than those found in flue gas from coal-fired power plants (CFPP, ~17 mol %) were considered. The following nine processes were chosen due to either the high purity or large quantity of CO2 available. The processes are categorized based on CO2 purity.
