CO2 Capture Process

Dry adsorbent-based carbon

capture process with internal

heat recovery

Zeolite synthesis from ash

Research includes bench

scale tests, process

modeling, CFD modeling

and economic evaluation.

Goal is conceptual design of

a carbon capture pilot unit to

apply in a slipstream of a

pulverized coal electric

power plant in Brazil.2,2 million U$D Project

Associação Brasileira do Carvão MineralKEY POINTS

• To increase the use of the Brazilian coals it is

necessary to address the technology issues

regarding the use of low rank coals for conversion

into clean fuels.

• Geologic survey, mining technologies, coal

characterization and utilization, environmental

technologies and capacity building for all the

economic chain, should be done.

• Modernization of the fleet, new projects and a

industrial coal policy to look at the economic chain

is our goal.
