The CO2 separation and recovery plant is being established to demonstrate a CO2 capture technology in the coal gasification process which J-Power is implementing in collaboration with New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO).
This plant will incorporate a high pressure process in the next-generation of advanced integrated coal gasification combined cycle (IGCC) using more than 1,500 degrees Celsius gas turbine.
Chiyoda will enhance and develop its clean coal technology to maximize efficiency, as well as utilizing carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies to provide a system that encompasses coal gasification, power generation, products manufacturing and CCS which, by practicing its Carbon Lifecycle Engineering, will contribute to a low carbon society.
The IGCC system, through the coal gasification coupled with a combined-cycle process, is designed to provide a higher efficiency system than that of conventional coal-fired power generation.
