Abstract
The application of the post combustion CO2 capture technology in the industry, a large amount of research need to be addressed in order to decrease the cost. The purpose of the pilot plants or demonstration plants is to find the issues which may not observed in the fundamental research. Another purpose of this study is to confirm the stimulation of process configuration. A pilot and demonstration plant study for the CO2 capture process is a vital step to go to the commercial step. The critical information generated from those plants could provide the guideline to build the commercial plant. Thus, a lot of research on pilot have been conducted in the past decades for different amines solvents in the different process configurations. In this chapter, the summary of the recent study on the pilot plant are discussed in term of capacity, region, solvent technology, and status. In addition, the demonstration plants in terms of size, feedstock, solvent, status, and CO2 fate are provided as well in this chapter.
