Tóm tắt

 The study focuses on the Basin Electric Dry Fork Power Station (DFS), the newest coal-fired power plant operating in the lower 48 states. DFS began operation in 2011 and has an operating lifetime of approximately 80 years, is a 420 MW plant, and emits roughly 3.3 million metric tonnes (Mt) of CO<

The objectives of the prefeasibility study were as follows: (1) to establish a CCS coordination team capable of achieving a successful implementation of commercial-scale CCS for the Dry Fork Power Station
  (2) to develop site-specific business and execution strategies
  and (3) to identify and describe promising saline storage sites capable of storing 50 million metric tons of CO<
