Project: Sustainable OPEration of post-combustion Capture plants
| Acronym | SCOPE |
| Project Topic | By addressing and closing critical knowledge gaps along the entire flow path for the exhaust gas that is being purified, this project will contribute to an accelerated decarbonisation of the industry. Amine-based chemical absorption is the leading technology for capturing and removing CO2 from certain industrial processes, such as those used in cement, metallurgical and steel industries as well as waste incineration and power plants. Although amine-based technology is not new, early adopters have struggled to secure emission permits due to the lack of data on amine emissions and lack of well-defined regulatory procedures for documenting and modelling amine emissions. As a result, the overall environmental impacts of using amine-based chemical absorption to mitigate industrial emissions over time are not well understood, which hinders the rapid commercialisation of amine-based technologies. |
