Coal is currently responsible for 40% of global electricity generation, which is increasing, largely due to the expanding economies of Asia, particularly China where a new coal-fired power station comes on stream every week. Indeed, it is generally recognised that the long-term future of coal for power generation must be linked to the drive towards near-zero emission power plant, with Lord Stern stating recently We need to get better at carbon capture and sequestration very quickly . To address this challenge, the proposed collaborative research programme aims to aid the development of new approaches to integrate carbon capture and multi-pollutant control technologies in pulverised fuel (PF) coal combustion to achieve near zero emissions more effectively. These technologies are based on a range of novel regenerable adsorbent materials being developed by the partners, which are capable of achieving the simultaneous removal of SOx, NOx, HCl, HF, and toxic metals, particularly mercury. This will be achieved either immediately prior to CO2 capture or simultaneously in CO2 capture through the successful development and integration of the novel sorbent materials to provide high purity CO2 streams ready for compression. The overall aim of the proposed collaborative research programme is to conduct the underpinning research to accelerate the development and demonstration of novel integrated carbon capture & simultaneous multi-pollutant control technologies, with the ultimate goal of reducing the cost of near zero emission coal plant considerably so that the new technologies can impact of the implementation of the next generation of carbon capture plants in the 2020s after the first demonstrations and commercial deployment with existing technology being achieved by 2020. Further, the new technologies can also be easily adapted to various scales of other coal-fired industrial boilers across China.The proposal builds upon a series of earlier UK-China collaborative activities organised and/or attended by the 5 partners and produces synergies between the complimentary R & D strengths of internationally leading UK and Chinese institutions in clean coal technology. The UK partners have visited China recently to identify areas and opportunities for collaboration and these visits include Prof. Guo, Prof. Snape, Dr Sun and Dr Liu to NSFC, MOST CAS and Southeast University, as well as and Chinese energy industries. Indeed, the current research funding obtained by the Chinese partners for next 5 years is in excess of RMB 50M under the CAS, NSFC, 863 and 973 Programmes, which will underpin their activities in the research programme as confirmed in the letters of support. Major collaborative activities include extensive materials development encompassing characterisation and modelling, understanding their performance at scale and also addressing all the underlying critical fundamental issues associated with materials and process development. Examples to demonstrate the two way exchange of ideas, the close working relationships and the mutual benefits that will be obtained include: (i) A range of advanced materials, including grafted nano-porous materials and carbon composite materials and carbon/metal oxides hybrid materials will be exchanged between ICC-CAS, Nottingham, UCL and Tsinghua to facilitate full characterisation and modelling of their absorption performance and selected new materials will be synthesised to gain an understanding of their performance at scale over realistic lifetimes in the facilities at Tsinghua and Southeast Universities. (ii) The flexible manganese oxides developed at Nottingham will be circulated to other partners for identifying other applications, including trapping arsenic and,, then prepared at scale for lifetime and regeneration tests in the pilot facilities at ICC-CAS, Tsinghua and Southeast Universities.

目前，煤炭发电量占全球发电量的 40%，而且这一比例还在不断增加，这主要是由于亚洲经济的不断扩张，尤其是中国，每周都有新的燃煤发电站投产。事实上，人们普遍认识到，煤炭发电的长期未来必须与近零排放发电厂的发展联系起来，斯特恩勋爵最近表示，我们需要很快在碳捕获和封存方面取得更好的进展。为了应对这一挑战，拟议的合作研究计划旨在帮助开发新方法，将碳捕获和多污染物控制技术整合到粉状燃料（PF）煤燃烧中，以更有效地实现接近零排放。这些技术基于合作伙伴开发的一系列新型可再生吸附材料，能够同时去除SOx、NOx、HCl、HF和有毒金属，特别是汞。这将在二氧化碳捕获之前或在二氧化碳捕获同时通过新型吸附剂材料的成功开发和集成来实现，以提供可供压缩的高纯度二氧化碳流。拟议合作研究计划的总体目标是进行基础研究，以加速新型综合碳捕获和同时多污染物控制技术的开发和示范，最终目标是大幅降低近零排放燃煤电厂的成本，从而实现在现有技术到 2020 年实现首次示范和商业部署后，新技术可以影响 2020 年代下一代碳捕集工厂的实施。此外，新技术还可以轻松适应其他各种规模的碳捕集工厂。该提案建立在之前由 5 个合作伙伴组织和/或参加的一系列英中合作活动的基础上，并在国际领先的英国和中国洁净煤机构的研发优势之间产生协同效应技术。英国合作伙伴最近访问了中国，以确定合作领域和机会，其中包括郭教授、斯内普教授、孙博士和刘博士访问国家自然科学基金委员会、中国科学院科技部和东南大学以及中国能源行业。事实上，目前中方合作伙伴在中科院、国家自然科学基金、863和973计划下获得的未来5年的研究经费超过5000万元人民币，这将支持他们在支持信中确认的研究计划活动。主要合作活动包括广泛的材料开发，包括表征和建模、大规模了解其性能以及解决与材料和工艺开发相关的所有潜在关键基本问题。展示双向思想交流、密切工作关系和互惠互利的例子包括： (i) 一系列先进材料，包括接枝纳米多孔材料和碳复合材料以及碳/金属氧化物杂化材料ICC-CAS、诺丁汉大学、伦敦大学学院和清华大学之间将进行交换，以促进其吸收性能的全面表征和建模，并且将合成选定的新材料，以了解其在清华大学和东南大学的设施中在实际使用寿命内的大规模性能大学。 (ii) 诺丁汉开发的柔性锰氧化物将分发给其他合作伙伴，以确定其他应用，包括捕集砷，然后在 ICC-CAS、清华大学和东南大学的试点设施中进行大规模的寿命和再生测试。
