Działania PGE Elektrowni Bełchatów SA w kontekście rozwoju czystych technologii węglowych. Instalacja demonstracyjna CCS
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2009) Cirkos, Bolesław; Gurgul, Marzena
The application of the best available techniques (BAT) in design and construction of the plant and all the power generation facilities guarantees the compliance with all the environment protection standards, both the national ones and the EU ones. In 2007 the Bełchatów Power Plant started the implementation of a comprehensive modernization and refurbishment programme of units no. 3-12, which will end in the year 2013. The modernizations will reduce considerably the emission of pollutants, especially nitrogen oxides and such greenhouse gases as carbon dioxide. Since 2007 the development of the low emission carbon technologies in PGE Elektrownia Bełchatów SA has resulted in the ongoing research and preparatory works on the construction of a CCS plant fully integrated into the 858 MW unit. The demonstration post combustion $CO_{2}$ capture plant of the 858 MW unit will be based on the advanced amine technology. It will capture yearly around 2.1 million tons of $CO_{2}$ from flue gases. The project execution will enable Company to obtain both the necessary engineering knowledge and experience in the design, construction and operation of CCS plant, and subsequently - their optimization and future commercial use. PGE Elektrownia Bełchatów SA has endeavoured to get qualified to the EU CCS Demonstration Programme.
