Deliverables
Work Package 1: DISPLACE process for reheating ovens
WP1 is centred on the TRL7 demonstration of the DISPLACE CO₂ capture technology. This is pursued through the detailed design, construction, and commissioning of the DISPLACE pilot, expanding the use of already existing infrastructure at Swerim’s site in Luleå (Sweden).
Public deliverables:
D1.10 Public report on DISPLACE technology (forthcoming)
Work Package 2: CASOH process for blast furnace gas
WP2 is centred on the detailed design, construction, and commissioning of the CASOH TRL7 prototype. The pilot operates at ArcelorMittal’s Gas Lab Site (Asturias, Spain) and uses real Blast Furnace Gas from ArcelorMittal Asturias.
Public deliverables:
D2.4 Factory acceptance test results of the CASOH pilot
D2.6 Experimental results of alternative reactor schemes for CASOH process
D2.5 Experimental results from the TRL7 CASOH pilot: screening test results and tuned reactor models
Work Package 3: Integrating CO2 capture technologies in a steel plant
WP3 seeks to design and model the C4U capture technologies at industrial scale and assess the energy and costs of the integrated process in the steelwork plant operation. This WP will determine the KPIs of the C4U technologies and help identify their optimal integration into the steel plant.
Public deliverables:
D3.4 Parametric performance of the C4U technologies for the cluster optimization
D3.6 Techno-economic assessment of the C4U technologies within the steel plant (forthcoming)
Work Package 4: Integrating CO2 capture in industrial CCUS clusters
WP4 assesses the impact of the captured CO₂’s quality for the safety and operation of the transportation and storage infrastructure, based on the integration of the C4U capture technologies into the North Sea Port CCUS industrial cluster. The WP also performs Life Cycle Assessment methods to determine the environmental impact of the C4U capture technologies.
Public deliverables:
D4.2 CO2 pipeline operability and safety impacts
D4.3 Validation of the pipeline decompression flow model against experimental data
D4.6 Report on “Numerical study of the impact of impure CO2 on storage in a depleted gas field in the North Sea” (forthcoming)
D4.8 Report on techno-economic evaluation of the 2030 North Sea Port cluster
D4.9 Report on operational risks of the 2050 North Sea Port cluster
D4.10 Life cycle assessment of capture technologies
D4.11 Method to address technology scaling
D4.12 Life cycle assessment and method to assess North Sea port cluster (forthcoming)
(Within D7.4) Policy brief on the optimisation of CCUS technologies at the cluster level
Work Package 5: Public Perception and Societal Readiness for CCUS
CCUS will not materialise in the EU without overcoming social-economic barriers. WP5 explores societal readiness through research and engagement with relevant end-users, local stakeholders, and policy makers.
Public deliverables:
D5.1 Submitted journal paper on just transitions and CCUS and how policy can include this
D5.3 Report on comparative analysis of industrial CCUS policy instrumentation
D5.4 Policy brief on how to incentivise CCUS in a societally acceptable way in industrial clusters
(Within D7.4) Policy brief on how to incentivise CCUS in a societally acceptable way in industrial clusters
Work Package 6: Business Models for CCUS
The greatest barriers to the development of CCUS in Europe are commercial rather than technological. WP6 will develop novel business models to ease deployment. C⁴U aims to establish the long-term business case for CCUS by considering stakeholder concerns and identifying optimal scenarios for overcoming financial risks.
Public deliverables:
D6.2 Report summarising learnings from the UK
D6.4 Report describing business model innovation framework design and scenario-analysis results
D6.5 Report describing short-listed business models in detail
(Within D7.4) Policy brief on business models to deploy industrial CCS infrastructure
Work Package 7: Dissemination through knowledge sharing and public engagement
C4U is the first project to consider technology development alongside societal, business, and policy considerations for a real industrial cluster. WP7 seeks to effectively engage with key communities and stakeholders in and beyond the North Sea Port, raising awareness over the project’s research and disseminating its results.
Public deliverables:
D7.1 Full Plan for Dissemination and Exploitation of Results (PEDR) including success metrics
D7.3 Stakeholder-tailored engagement (workshops and meetings) and summary report
D7.4 Policy briefs on: how to incentivise CCUS in a societally acceptable way in industrial clusters
D7.5 Website and social media channels (Twitter, LinkedIn)
D7.6 Media articles
