Project Description

Type of Project: Analysis
Category: Cross-Cutting, Macro-Economic
Objectives: Provide models for estimating the engineering requirements and costs of carbon capture and storage infrastructure; Describe a set of simple correlations for estimating the density and viscosity of CO2 within the range of operating temperatures and pressures that might be encountered in carbon capture and storage applications; Illustrate an approach that is used to compare several recent techno-economic models for estimating CO2 pipeline size and costs
Technologies Considered: Carbon capture and storage
Models Used: Kinder Morgan property data; Ogden Models; MIT Models; Ecofys Models; IEA GHG PH4/6 Models; IEA GHG 2005/2 Models; IEA GHG 2005/3 Models; Parker Models
Outputs: Costs of carbon capture and storage infrastructure; density and viscosity of CO2; CO2 pipeline sizes and costs
