1. Background.

The 2nd International Oxy-Combustion Network Meeting was jointly organised by IEA GHG and Alstom Power. It was held at Windsor , Connecticut , USA on the 25th and 26th of January 2007.

The 2nd meeting of the Oxy-Combustion Network followed on from the discussions at the Inaugural Meeting held in November 2005 at the head office of Vattenfall Europe AG in Cottbus, Germany . The outcome of the launch meeting offered a series of presentations and discussions on the development of Oxy-Coal Combustion technology for the power generation industry.  

The agenda for the second meeting also included development in future novel oxy-combustion processes such as oxy-CFB, chemical looping combustion, membrane technologies and development in oxy-gas combustion for power generation industry.

2. Workshop Aims and Objectives:

The meeting presented an opportunity to review the progress of various research and development activities in oxy-combustion technologies for power generation industry.

The workshop looked at the current status of knowledge on the development of oxy-PC and oxy-CFB technologies and then provided an insight and overview to future novel technologies.

The meeting aimed to identify areas of gaps in knowledge in the development of oxy-combustion through a series of discussions on various issues.

Finally the meeting planned the future direction of the network.

3. Workshop Outcomes:

  • Provided scene setting overviews
  • Feedback from participants
  • Review of new initiatives on oxy-combustion R&D activities.
