3. 3
Questions on sustainable energy
• Out look of CO2 emission, energy consumption and
generation
• How can we make a sustainable energy plan
• We need to get off fossil fuel
– Numbers not adjectives
– Not easy, but possible
• All renewable energy is diffuse
– To make a difference, renewable energy facility has to be country-sized.

How much is a gigaton (Gt)?
• One billion metric
tons (1012 kg)
• It is about 2750
Empire state
buildings.
• Global CO2
emissions related to
energy are about
36.3 Gt as of 2012.

We Still Rely on Fossil Fuels
• Fossil fuels
(coal, gas and oil)
represent 80%
of the global energy
supply
• Renewables supply
only account for 13%
of our total energy supply
11. 11

… and will Continue to do so
for Decades to Come
By 2030 Renewables
could make upto 30%
of the global energy supply
• But fossil fuels will remain
our main source of energy
for decades to come

Fossil Fuels Power the
Largest Emitters of CO2….
Fossil fuels power plants,
heavy industry and refineries
account for 52% of the world’s
current CO2 emissions
(15 billion tonnes CO2 emissions/year)

How do we Meet this Challenge?
• We need to cut CO2 emissions fast…
… as energy consumption continues to rise
…Our climate depends on it
15. 15

CCS alone will provide
up to 20% of the CO2 emission
reductions we need
to make by 2050.
Here’s how it works...

What Is Carbon Capture and
Sequestration (Storage)
Three stage process:
i. Capturing CO2 at
Large & stationary
point sources
ii. Transporting the CO2 from source to
sink,
iii. Injecting the CO2 in suited geological reservoir or
sinks

Separation principles
1.Adsorption: attachment
of fluid to a solid surface
– Solid sorbents :Lime,
zeolite, activated carbon
2.Absorption: fluid
dissolves or permeates
into a liquid
– Solvents :Aqueous
amines and salts
Chemical Adsorption Physical Adsorption
Chemical Absorption Physical Absorption

Olav Bolland,
MEA scrubbing
Energy consumption (3.8 MJ/kgCO2),
energy penalty: 10-14%
Large uncertainty on health issues
relating to emission of amines
Uncertainty of handing waste amines
relating to degradation
28. 28
Carbonate looping
Energy penalty of CO2 capture is about 5% << other techniques
CO2 capture: 87-90%

Pre-combustion
•Technology of large scale hydrogen
production is commercially available
•Turbine needed to be modified for
combustion of hydrogen
•Complex processes

Sorption Enhanced SMR or WGS
• Reforming: CH4 + H2O CO + 3H2
• WGS: CO + H2O CO2 + H2
• Overall: CH4 + 2H2O CO2 + 4H2
• Capture: MO + CO2 MCO3
• CO2 acceptor installed together with the catalyst
• Shift in the equilibrium
