A New FP7 Project Demonstrating CO2 Capture Technologies

Abstract

The OCTAVIUS project (Optimisation of CO2 Capture Technology Allowing Verification and Implementation at Utility Scale) has started on March 1st 2012 for a period of 5 years, as part of the 7th Framework Programme of the European Commission. Gathering 15 European and 2 South African partners, OCTAVIUS was conceived as contributing to demonstration of integrated concepts for zero emission power plants covering all the components needed for power generation as well as CO2 post-combustion capture and compression facilities.

This paper presents the objectives of the project, its main expected outcomes and the results obtained within the first six months period.
