This report summarizes work performed by Dresser-Rand, A Siemens Business and subcontractors, under DOE award number DE-FE0026727, in pursuit of the design, construction and test of a 10:1 pressure ratio “Low Pressure” (LP) supersonic CO2 compressor suitable for use as a first stage in a two stage 100:1 compression system. This LP compressor, in conjunction with a corresponding 10:1 high pressure compressor, provide the overall 100:1 compression ratio required to compress CO2 from 22 psia (as generated by a CO2 capture system) to the 2215 psia required to transport CO2 via a pipeline to a suitable sequestration site. The compressor demonstrates application of Dresser-Rand’s supersonic compression technology at an industrial scale using CO2 in a closed-loop testing facility. This scope of this technical report is to summarize all phases of the program executed from August 5, 2015 to the June 30, 2018. This program included the final testing of a “high pressure” (HP) compressor that had previously been built by Dresser-Rand and the design, fabrication, assembly and test of a corresponding LP compressor. In summary, the LP compressor exceeded the target pressure ratio and efficiency goals for the program at CO2 flowrates suitable for those expected in coal fired power plant carbon capture systems. Initial and Final Techno-Economic Analysis reports were generated to show the value this compression solution brings to carbon capture and sequestration (CC&S) systems for the Case B12B coal fired power plant model. Integration of the DATUM S compression technology into a carbon capture and sequestration system was shown to result in a 27% reduction in the Cost of Electricity for the compression system, as well as a 21,500 gallon per hour reduction in required cooling water flow for the plant.
