SOCAAR is pleased to announce our special Summer Seminar:
Wednesday July 13, 2016
3 – 4 PM
200 College Street, WB 407
Britain’s Path Towards Carbon Capture & Storage
Dr. Carolina Font Palma
Lecturer in Chemical Engineering
Faculty of Science and Engineering
University of Chester
Low carbon emission technologies, such as carbon capture and storage (CCS), are needed to limit the global temperature rise of 2°C. This talk will introduce
the two main technologies proposed for commercial demonstration in the UK, that is, post-combustion and oxy-combustion. Post-combustion benefits of being an end-of-pipe technology, which does not require modifications to the boiler as oxy-combustion does.
On the other hand, oxy-combustion produces a flue gas with high CO2 concentration that makes the CO2 capture process easier. Progress on the deployment of these technologies will be discussed, as well as the factors preventing their development.
If you are unable to join us for the seminar in person, we will be broadcasting the presentations live during the seminar using GoToMeeting software. Please feel free to join us online using
