SCOPE to host research showcase at imperial College

Nov 10 2024


The final event of the Sustainable OPEration of Post-combustion Capture plants (SCOPE) project will be held on Dec 13 in London.

Over the past three years, SCOPE has addressed critical knowledge gaps across the entire exhaust gas purification process. The ACT-funded project aims to remove barriers to CCUS by providing plant operators, regulators and decision-makers with essential tools and data to improve understanding and regulatory processes for amine-based CO2 capture.

SCOPE has brought together a network of stakeholders through the “Stakeholder, Policy, Research, and Industry Network” (SPRINT) and hosted thematic seminars to motivate interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange. Amine-based chemical absorption is the leading technology for capturing CO2 in sectors such as cement, steel and waste incineration, but its deployment has been hindered by regulatory and data challenges. SCOPE seeks to overcome these barriers by developing guidelines, validating emissions data, and addressing environmental and societal impacts.

Agenda Highlights

The event program includes expert presentations on emission measurement, guidelines for emissions control, the impact of emissions on daily life, insights from SPRINT and regulatory perspectives from SCOPE’s partner countries. The day will conclude with a panel discussion, providing a forum for exchange between speakers and attendees.

This event offers a unique opportunity to explore advancements in CO2 capture technology and regulation, connect with leading experts, and participate in discussions shaping the future of emissions management.

Attendees who wish to attend the in-person event should email jprest@imperial.ac.uk to secure a space.
