Z phase strengthened steels for ultra-supercritical power plants (Z-ultra)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2016,
The aim is to develop a heat resistant steel with a 100 000 hour creep strength of 100 MPa at 650°C. This allows increasing the thermal efficiency of fossil power plants to over 50%, which is 30% higher than the present standard in most existing power plants. The CO2 emissions are reduced accordingly. The consortium combines the expertise of a steelmaker, two utility companies, an engineering cons ...

Meeting the Materials and Manufacturing Challenge for Ultra High Efficiency PF Power Plants with CCS (NEXTGENPOWER)
Date du début: 1 mai 2010, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,
Carbon Capture and Sequestration has become an important technology to comply with the CO2 reduction targets set by the EC. However CCS has the drawback that the electrical efficiency of the coal fired power plant will drop significantly. To overcome this drawback, one has to increase the base efficiency of the power plant or increase the biomass co-firing share as this is a CO2 neutral energy sou ...
