Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership Water Working Group
All currently available carbon capture technologies require additional water for exhaust gas processing, equipment cooling, and replacement power generation (large-scale capture and compression are expected to consume 30% or more of a facilitys power output and associated water usage). More efficient use of available resources (water recycling), improving various capture process efficiencies, and increased use of alternative cooling technologies (such as dry cooling) are under development to meet this challenge. The Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (RCSP) Water Working Group (WWG) is focused on addressing the challenges and opportunities at the nexus of carbon capture and storage and water and is working to find technically and economically feasible answers to these questions.View/Download Document
