Estimating the capital costs of life extension for fossil-fuel steam plants

Technical Report

In the past, electric utilities built new plants to meet growth in the demand for electricity or to replace old, inefficient plants. Today, utilities are considering other options for meeting future demand, such as conservation programs, load management, purchase of nonutility generation, bulk power purchases, and repowering and life extension (refurbishment) of existing plants. All of these options will play a role in utilities' efforts to meet the demand for electricity. The purpose of this report is to estimate life-extension capital costs for use by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) in its forecasting models. A methodology is developed to estimatemore »« less
Evaluation of the feasibility of low-cost carbon dioxide removal/transfer methods for fuel cell application. Final report. [Various separation processes]

Technical Report Giner, J ; Swette, L

The objective of this study has been to investigate the feasibility of removing carbon dioxide from hydrogen for two specific fuel cell system applications. In the first application, CO/sub 2/ is to be removed from H/sub 2//CO/sub 2/ mixture to produce pure hydrogen that can be used in an alkaline electrolyte fuel cell. In the second application CO/sub 2/ has to be added to the air entering the fuel cell cathode. Topics discussed include general considerations regarding hydrogen and carbon dioxide separation; specific separation methods; analysis of the alkaline fuel cell system; the molten carbonate system; experiments on hydrogen purificationmore »« less

Capital cost assessment of phosphoric acid fuel cell power plants for electric utility applications: Final report

Technical Report Hall, E W ; Handley, L M ; May, G W

This report summarizes the results of EPRI Research Project RP1777-1, Amendment 12, Task 1 through 7. The major objective of this work was to assess the capital cost potential of multi-mega-watt phosphoric acid fuel cell power plants for electric utility applications. The assessment examined the capital cost for a first-of-a-kind 11-MW demonstration unit, the estimated cost to manufacturer and install ''market-entry'' units in the 10- to 20-MW class, and the projected capital cost for larger power plant stations (up to 100 MW) made up of 25-MW and 50-MW modules. The study confirmed that near-term phosphoric acid fuel cell technology hasmore »« less
Better Enzymes for Carbon Capture: Low-Cost Biological Catalyst to Enable Efficient Carbon Dioxide Capture

Program Document

IMPACCT Project: Codexis is developing new and efficient forms of enzymes known as carbonic anhydrases to absorb CO2 more rapidly and under challenging conditions found in the gas exhaust of coal-fired power plants. Carbonic anhydrases are common and are among the fastest enzymes, but they are not robust enough to withstand the harsh environment found in the power plant exhaust steams. In this project, Codexis will be using proprietary technology to improve the enzymes’ ability to withstand high temperatures and large swings in chemical composition. The project aims to develop a carbon-capture process that uses less energy and less equipmentmore »« less
