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，煤炭占全球发电量的40%，这一比例正在增加，主要是由于亚洲经济的扩张，特别是中国，每周都有一座新的燃煤发电站投产。事实上，人们普遍认为，煤炭发电的长期未来必须与接近零排放的发电厂联系在一起，斯特恩勋爵最近表示，我们需要尽快在碳捕获和封存方面做得更好。为了应对这一挑战，拟议的合作研究计划旨在帮助开发新的方法，将碳捕获和多污染物控制技术集成到粉状燃料（PF）煤燃烧中，以更有效地实现近零排放。这些技术基于合作伙伴正在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。这将通过成功开发和整合新型吸附剂材料，在CO2捕集之前立即实现，或在CO2捕集的同时实现，以提供准备用于压缩的高纯度CO2流。拟议的合作研究计划的总体目标是进行基础研究，以加快开发和示范新型综合碳捕获和同时控制多污染物的技术，最终目标是大幅降低近零排放燃煤电厂的成本，以便新技术能够在2020年代影响下一代碳捕获电厂的实施。到2020年，现有技术将实现首次演示和商业部署。此外，新技术也可以很容易地适应中国各地不同规模的其他燃煤工业锅炉。该项目建立在5个合作伙伴组织和/或参加的一系列早期中英合作活动的基础上，并在国际领先的英国和中国机构在清洁煤技术方面的互补研发优势之间产生协同效应。英国合作伙伴最近访问了中国，以确定合作领域和机会，这些访问包括郭教授，斯内普教授，孙博士和刘博士访问了国家自然科学基金，中国科学技术部和东南大学，以及中国能源行业。事实上，中国合作伙伴在未来5年内获得的中科院、国家自然科学基金、863和973计划的研究经费超过5000万元人民币，这将支持他们在支持信中确认的研究计划中的活动。主要的合作活动包括广泛的材料开发，包括表征和建模，了解它们的大规模性能，并解决与材料和工艺开发相关的所有潜在的关键基本问题。举例说明双方的意见交流、密切的工作关系和将获得的互惠互利，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/金属氧化物混合材料，将在诺丁汉的ICC-CAS之间进行交换，UCL和清华大学，以促进其吸收性能的全面表征和建模，并将合成选定的新材料，以了解其大规模性能在清华大学和东南大学的设施中，(ii)在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。
