EMERGING CO2 CAPTURE TECHNOLOGIES WORKSHOP «MemCCC-Membrane Based CO2 Capture at the Cement Industry» Part1: «The Fixed-Site-Carrier Membrane – Background» Presenter: May-Britt Hägg – Professor NTNU Part 2: «Air Products and the MemCCC project» Presenters: Tom Cantero – General Manager / Air Products Svein G. Nodeland – Process Manager / Air Products

26th – 27th January – CLIMIT / Scandic Oslo Airport

Part I: The Fixed-Site-Carrier-Membrane - Background A composite membrane; PVAm (polyvinylamine) on PSf (polysulfone) • Facilitated CO2-transport is the dominating mechanism

For best performance: • Presence of water is needed • Driving force by using vacuum on permeate side • High feed flow rate

CO2  H 2O   H 2CO3

H 2 CO3  NH 2   H CO3  NH3

The long road forward - FSC-Membrane / a review • From lab to pilot 2000 – 2016:  4th step (-> 2013): preparing for hollow fiber module in lab

1st step (2008): Lab, d=5-7 cm

2nd step (2011): benchpilot, Flat sheets, 0.5 m2 3rd step (2012 2014): Small pilot, Flat sheets –> 2m2 Power plant + Cement factory

Commercial type HF modules (AP)

 5th step (2013current): joining forces with Air Products in two projects, preparing:  2013: Rig at Tiller  2015: Rig at NORCEM  Hollow fibers,  4,2 – 10 m2

Meanwhile: Testing the membrane for flue gas at EDP’s coal fired power plant in Sines -Portugal EU-project NanoGloWa 2007-12  Exposure time: ~8 months  No detoriation of the membranes detected  Membrane regained performance after outages of plant  When temperature control failed, RH and performance went down, but was regained with temperature control in place  When FDG and SCR fell out at short intervals, the membrane could tolerate this increase in SO2 and NOx content

Most important lesson learnt: Durability of membrane was fine over this exposure time!

Flat Sheets - Membrane Area: 1,5 m2 Flue Gas Composition: 12% CO2, 6% O2, saturated H2O (at 50 C) SO2 < 200 mg/Nm3 (with FGD) NOx < 200 mg/Nm3 (with SCR)

Testing the membrane for flue gas at NORCEM 2014 – flat sheet module System – one membrane stage: • Remotely monitored container • Temperature and humidity control • Pretreatment (filters) • Prototype membrane flat sheet module • Vacuum system • Analytics: T, P, RH, flow, composition Consortium:DNV-KEMA, Yodfat, Sintef, NTNU Most important Lessons Learnt:  The permeate CO2-conc reached > 70vol%  The membrane tolerated plant outages  Temp.control important to avoid condens.  System robustness needs improvement  The flat sheet module does not give optimum flow patters for separation – hollow fibers or spiral-wound next stage

Going from Flat Sheets to Hollow Fibers  2012 – NTNU invests in a fairly large spinning – coating machine for hollow fibers  2013 – proudly showing the in-house made modules containing 250 PVAm coated PSf hollow fibers   -but quickly we understand we cannot do this scaling up by ourselves…but it was great learning!

Scaling up – with Hollow Fiber Modules Steep learning curve! • 2013: realizing we need professional help, and we join forces with Air Products, US

Challenging: • The modules are delivered with fibers ready mounted in the modules – at NTNU we slowly develop the technique with «in-situ» coating – • With the aim of obtaining suitable thickness selective layer, and avoid the fibers stick together

Slowly moving from 0,8  4,2  10 m2 (here Arne & Maria)

2015: Air Products, Norway, joins  MemCCC project started 2015; with AP as coordinator  Part 2 of presentation
