A European Research & Innovation Project
C2FUEL project aims to develop energy-efficient, economically and environmentally viable CO2 conversion technologies for the displacement of fossils fuels emission through a concept of industrial symbiosis between carbon intensive industries, power production, and local economy. Running for four years from 2019 to 2023, C2FUEL partnership gathers the whole value chain necessary for CO2 conversion into carbon-captured energy carriers : carbon captured supply, renewable hydrogen and fuel development, integration to power plant and operation, so as end-users and international promoters. The concept will be demonstrated at Dunkirk between DK6 combined cycle power plant, Arcelor Mittal steel factory and one of the major European harbor, a showcase for future replication. The project has received €4m of funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 838014.

C2FUEL is happy to announce, after minor technical difficulties and a global pandemic, that the first 1000-hour degradation campaign of a CO2 capture solvent (30wt% MEA) with industrial blast-furnace gas has been achieved. The demonstration – using a minipilot conceived by ENGIE Lab CRIGEN and CNRS-LRGP – was conducted on the DK6 site in Dunkirk, …
