9. 9 Benefits of Oxy-Coal Combustion Oxy-combustion is potentially the highest efficiency and lowest cost CO 2 capture technology for coal fired plants* Near Zero Emissions of criteria air pollutants (NZEP) >90% CO 2 capture at pipeline quality and purity specifications Low technology risk – plant components are primarily conventional equipment modified for operation in the oxy-mode. An oxy-plant will look and operate like a conventional power plant. Can be retrofit as easily as post combustion capture  Same existing plant equipment and space requirements  No LP steam requirement (output can be increased by heat integration)  No new chemicals or solvents Unique operating options to can maximize output during the day * DOE/NETL 2007-1291 Rev. 2, August 2008, “Pulverized Coal Oxy-combustion Power plants” DOE/NETL 2007-1281 Rev.1, August 2007 “Cost and Performance Baseline for Fossil Energy Plants”
