Performance and Modelling of the Pre-combustion Capture Pilot Plant at the Buggenum IGCC

This paper summarizes the final results of the pilot plant operation and R&D programme of the CO2 Catch-up project (2008- 2013). The objective of the CO2 Catch-up project is to demonstrate pre-combustion CO2 capture at the pilot plant in Buggenum, the Netherlands, in order to verify the technology performance and to generate knowledge in the form of validated models and operational experience
