Description
The mission of DOE's Fossil Energy R&D Program is to ensure the nation can continue to rely on traditional resources for clean, secure and affordable energy while enhancing environmental protection. The Carbon Capture program focuses on developing technologies to control emissions from either post-combustion units (e.g., pulverized coal) or pre-combustion (e.g., Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle, or IGCC). First Generation technologies (i.e. those that are currently being demonstrated or that are commercially available) exist, and Second Generation Technologies (i.e., those that include technology components currently in R&D and are expected to be ready for demonstration in the 2020-2025 timeframe) have shown potential for improvement towards an economic goal for cost of capture at less than $40/tonne, but are still cost prohibitive for broad deployment to the existing coal fleet. For Fiscal Year (FY) 2018, the Carbon Capture Program will solicit applications under this FOA to develop technologies in the area of pre-combustion carbon capture. Approaches that look at either hydrogen (H2) separation or carbon dioxide (CO2) separation will be accepted. The carbon capture technologies developed through this FOA will have direct application to coal gasification processes where coal derived synthesis gas or hydrogen are produced. Additionally, because gasification technology is often used to produce industrial chemicals, the technologies developed through this FOA will also be directly applicable to industrial gasifiers. Finally, as these technologies are successfully developed, they can represent an export opportunity to other countries that have a larger installed base of gasifiers than the U.S. Coal or petcoke derived syngas may be proposed, but if the fuel source isn’t coal, the Applicant must show the applicability to a coal-based system. The technologies developed through this FOA will help the United States maintain expertise in the area of gas separations and be prepared in the event that coal gasification-based power generation returns to the U.S. due to increased natural gas prices.
Catch-all / unrestricted eligibility mark · DE-FOA-0001830
Grants.gov marks Transformational Pre-combustion Carbon Captur… with a catch-all / unrestricted eligibility code (Unrestricted / see official listing). Read the official announcement text for the real applicant filter — the code alone is not a door list. Applicant cost-sharing is required on the Grants.gov extract. Instrument: Cooperative Agreement. Funding-activity codes span Energy · Science and Technology / R&D (EN;ST). This eligibility-code string dominates the National Energy Technology Laboratory book (410 peers, 77% of 531).
- Code 99
