Accelerating Energy Sector Decarbonization through Waste-Derived Fuels and CCS Technology

Accelerating the decarbonization of the energy sector requires innovative solutions. This webinar will explore the substitution of fossil fuels with waste-derived alternatives and the application of carbon capture technologies oxyfuel and chemical looping combustion. Researchers and industry experts discuss the viability of oxyfuel for retrofitting and chemical looping combustion as a highly efficient CCS process, focusing on recent large-scale pilot testing, further technology scale-up, challenges and potentials in terms of corrosion, and impact assessments (TEA/LCA). Additionally, the webinar will feature an operator’s perspective and an outlook on the further experimental upscaling of chemical looping.
