DOE awards $7M to eight oxy-combustion coal technology projects; carbon capture, utilization and storage

Green Car Congress

The oxy-combustion process replaces the air used for combustion with a mixture of oxygen and recycled plant emissions (flue gas) and/or water for temperature control. Gas Technology Institute. The boiler concept should allow for a more compact combustor with reduced gas-phase heat exchanger surface area.
