TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present experimental results from a pilot built to demonstrate the concept at the MWth scale, which treats 1/150 of the flue gases of an existing CFBC power plant (la Pereda) and it has been operated in steady state for hundreds of hours of accumulated experimental time.

TL;DR: In this paper, an emerging technology that involves the separation of CO 2 using the reversible carbonation reaction of CaO to capture CO 2 from the flue gas, and the calcination of CaCO 3 to regenerate the sorbent and produce concentrated CO 2 for storage is described.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the design of a 1MW th pilot plant to capture 70-95% of the CO 2 contained in the flue gas from a 1/150 side stream emitted by an existing 50MW e CFB power plant.

TL;DR: In this article, the first results from a pilot plant designed to demonstrate the viability of postcombustion capture of CO 2 using CaL under conditions comparable to those expected in a large scale plant are reported.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results obtained from a series of experimental campaigns carried out in La Pereda 1.7 MW pilot plant to test a novel reactivation process based on the "recarbonation" principle, where the CO 2 carrying capacity of the sorbent is enhanced by placing the carbonated solid stream coming from the carbonator reactor in contact with concentrated CO 2.
