PRE-COMBUSTION CARBON CAPTURE TECHNOLOGIES--Topic Area 4: Advanced Separation Devices for Separating CO2 or H2 from Shifted Syngas and Novel Approaches for Pre-Combustion Removal and Capture of the Carbon Content of: NOTE: This descriptive area provides an overview of Topic Area of Interest 4 only. YOU MUST READ THE ENTIRE FUNDING OPPORTUNITY ANNOUNCEMENT DOCUMENT FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, EVALUATION CRITERIA AND INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PREPARE AN APPLICATION UNDER A SPECIFIC TECHNICAL TOPIC AREA OF INTEREST. Please scroll to the bottom of this page to access the Funding Opportunity Announcement. Topic Area 4 - Advanced separation devices for separating CO2 or H2 from shifted syngas and novel approaches for pre-combustion removal and capture for storage of the carbon content of fuels, other than Topic Areas 1, 2, and 3: Topic Area 4 solicits novel ideas on advanced separation devices that can separate hydrogen from the water gas shift mixtures; CO2 remaining as the retentate, i.e., on the feed side of the separation device at high pressure, or vice versa, i.e., separation of the CO2 stream and leaving hydrogen as the retentate. In either option, the hydrogen must be available for the IGCC-CCS plant's combustion turbine at practical rates and purity. Topic Area 4 is also open to combinations of capture components, e.g., a hybrid capture system, if the systems can be shown to have superior performance and lower cost projections. The scale of the equipment to be tested will be sufficient to extrapolate the data to sub-engineering scale prototypes via successful intermediate scale-up steps and, ultimately, to full-scale commercial systems. The experimental protocol shall include separation tests with simulated shifted syngas mixtures at operating conditions that are appropriate for a commercial coal gasification system. The report shall include raw and reduced data, data interpretation and analyses, and results emphasizing the accomplishments towards achieving the Carbon Sequestration program objectives, device design and engineering fundamental studies, as well as preliminary process economic studies indicating how the evolved technology advances the current state-of-the-art. It is expected that the R D will demonstrate, at an appropriate scale, that the separation device can successfully extract hydrogen or CO2 from typical water gas shift mixture feeds, and the hydrogen can be used in combustion turbines and the CO2 as captured can be cost-effectively transported to and stored in appropriate sites. Literature evidence and/or proof-of-principle test data validating the feasibility and scalability of the concept might enhance the application's merits. Information available in open literature includes functionalized and non- functionalized ionic liquids, chemisorbents, phase transfer sorbents (sorbents changing from solid to liquid and vice-versa following CO2 adsorption, potentially improving sorption capacity), chemical bonding to create a stable, thermodynamically-favored chemical compounds with CO2 in gas or solution phase and forming stable waste materials to be stored, CO2 mineralization with the reactant minerals providing the resource for energy requirement for separation, CO2 clathrates, as some of the variety of novel concepts for CO2 management from power plants. The literature information is given for example purpose only, and does not constitute any suggestion of any concept or combinations of concepts by DOE to the prospective applicants in support of the topic area. The proposed R D shall be conducted according to a planned approach, including but not limited to the work such as suggested below, and the technical strategy modified and work emphasis shifted as necessary to accomplish the FOA Topic Area 4 objectives: Identify and develop the most practical technical know-how and the capture/separation device, preliminary integration schemes with future commercial IGCC-CCS systems, and achieve meaningful results along the development path to qualify for continued support through successive budget periods at each decision gates, and technology validation; Perform tests on simulated water gas shift mixtures at commercially-relevant conditions and complete appropriate data analyses. The data and results must be presented in a format and engineering units suitable for scale-up and comprehensible to design and system engineers; Using the data from above, provide an analysis with details sufficient to permit an economic evaluation of the process and its scale-up and commercial potential. Topic Area 4 also encourages applicants to submit novel, path-breaking concepts for pre-combustion carbon capture in support of achieving the DOE's Carbon Sequestration Program goal. Applications should include discussions of the knowledge gap, detailed discussions on how the successful execution of the proposed tasks would unfold new knowledge and develop a technical know-how beyond current capabilities of performance and costs, justification of the technical strategy and R D approach from existing laboratory data and/or literature, analyses of the theoretical fundamentals, and planned engineering development to assess the viability of the concepts. Analyses of scalability criteria of the concepts and preliminary economic assessments, design concepts, materials availability, manufacturing assessments, operational constraints, conceptual process flow and instrument diagrams (P ID), process development algorithm, stage gates with decision points, and technical barriers identified at the concept stage, etc., are needed. In responding to the Topic Area 4, the applicant shall demonstrate a thorough understanding of the technology being proposed. The applicant shall describe the expected level of performance of the proposed technology relative to both CO2 capture and removal efficiency, recovery and regeneration approaches, if applicable, operation/regeneration cycles, how and why different from the current benchmarks, and the path forward to achieving DOE's Carbon Sequestration performance metrics. The applicant shall provide information relevant to overcoming the technical challenges anticipated during the technology R D efforts, and discuss planned systems analyses and process economic evaluation efforts as reality checks and R D guidance during the conduct of the proposed work. In support of application's merit, the applicant shall submit the technical strategy in detail and the investigation approach with logic flow to achieve the intended results. The proposed R D shall be conducted according to a planned approach, including but not limited to the work such as suggested below, and the technical strategy modified and work emphasis shifted as necessary to accomplish the FOA Topic Area 4 objectives. The applicants are advised that the Topic Area is looking for novel R D products, both new knowledge and technical know-how, which will contribute to achieving the DOE's Carbon Sequestration Program goals and road mapping exercises: Identify the concept, develop and follow appropriate technical strategy for reducing to practice, and develop preliminary integration schemes with IGCC-CCS plants, and achieve intermediate milestones along the development path, and technology validation; Perform tests on simulated WGS mixtures at commercially-relevant conditions obtain experimental data, complete data analyses, and report meaningful results; the data and test results must be presented in a format and engineering units suitable for scale-up and comprehensible to design and system engineers; Using the data from above, provide an analysis with details sufficient to permit a preliminary economic evaluation of the concept and its scale-up and commercial potential.
