• CCS expected to cut 25 % of emissions • Contribution from 2030

TCM is the world’s largest

facility for testing and

improving CO2 capture.

Knowledge gained will prepare

the ground for CO2 capture

initiatives to combat climate

change.

Building the

Biggest!

Mobile Test Unit

Test concept

• Determine emissions and discharges from the test facilities

• Verify safe and stable continuous operation

• Determine design limits

• Minimise energy demand

• Identify and assess critical equipment

• Develop control philosophy and train advanced control system

• Develop and validate modelling tools

• Measure and compare overall test results against reference cases

• Assess cost efficiencies

• Establish cost models
