據烴加工新聞3月24日消息稱，該3D工業試驗展示了從工業活動中捕獲二氧化碳的創新流程，目前正在安賽樂米塔爾敦克爾克工廠進行。在歐盟“地平線2020研究和創新計劃”的支持下，該項目旨在驗證可復制的碳捕獲技術解決方案。該由道達爾能源、ArcelorMittal、Axens和IFP Energies Nouvelles (IFPEN)等財團推動的3D項目，是向脫碳行業邁出的重要一步，這些行業排放的二氧化碳很高，如煉鋼。

碳捕獲研究人員面臨的挑戰是，如何提高碳捕獲過程的競爭力，降低能源消耗。這個工業試驗應該可以驗證DMXTM碳捕集工藝在過去十年中在IFPEN實驗室中開發的性能。

該項目于 2019 年 5 月啟動，并在 Axens 的監督下于 2020 年開始建造演示器。2021 年 12 月，試驗的主要模塊，包括一個 22米高的塔，在安賽樂米塔爾位于敦刻爾克的工廠交付和組裝。建造試驗裝置并將其與工廠連接的階段現已完成，該裝置已準備好啟動。

這次演示計劃持續12-18個月，是該技術全面部署之前的最后階段。

碳捕集設施將處理煉鋼氣體:它將通過將二氧化碳從其他氣體中分離出來以證明碳捕集過程的有效性。在演示階段，它每小時將捕獲0.5噸二氧化碳，即超過4000噸/年。

TotalEnergies launches carbon capture pilot project in Dunkirk

The 3D industrial pilot to demonstrate an innovative process for capturing CO2 from industrial activities is now running at ArcelorMittal’s Dunkirk site. With support from the EU’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation programme, the project aims to validate replicable technical solutions for carbon capture. The 3D project, driven by a consortium including TotalEnergies, ArcelorMittal, Axens and IFP Energies Nouvelles (IFPEN), is a major step towards decarbonising industries that are highly emissive of CO2, such as steelmaking.

The challenge for carbon capture researchers is making the processes more competitive and less energy intensive. This industrial pilot should allow the performance of the DMXTM carbon capture process developed in IFPEN’s labs over the last ten years to be verified.

The project was launched in May 2019, and the building of the demonstrator began in 2020 under Axens’ supervision. In December 2021, the pilot’s main modules, including a 22 m tower, were delivered and assembled at ArcelorMittal’s site in Dunkirk. The phases of building the pilot and connecting it to the plant have now been completed, and the unit is ready for start-up.

This demonstration, which is scheduled to last for 12 – 18 months, is the final stage before the technology’s full-scale deployment.

The carbon capture facility will process steelmaking gases: it will demonstrate the effectiveness of the carbon capture process by separating the CO2 from other gases. During the demonstration stage, it will capture 0.5 t of CO2 an hour, i.e. more than 4000 tpy.
