COLLATE – CO2 Liquid Laboratory Testing.
Project COLLATE is focusing on developing/ optimizing methods, competencies, and equipment for analysis and simulation related to CCUS. The overall aim of the project is to support the growing CCUS industry by ensuring a Danish-based lab, containing industrial and commercially viable tools, is made available to the growing industry. This aimed to be commercialized and utilized by the different stakeholders related to the CCUS industry both nationally and abroad.
There will be several parallel tracks actively running within the project. Two separate tracks focussing on scientific research of different materials, and simultaneous development of smaller lab equipment. These tracks will be run by DTU and GEUS (in cooperation with Winthershall DEA) respectively. The other track will focus on developing and building a larger sized lab system which will be benchmarked against smaller lab-scale trials and ongoing research results (OTS/EMS). Several additional activities will also be completed in cooperation between the project partners, including sparring and ongoing dialogue with relevant problem owners and industrial stakeholders (INEOS and Wintershall DEA). The administrative tasks will mainly be undertaken by ECD.
The COLLATE project will mainly consist of three parallel tracks.
Track A)
In WP5 (GEUS lead) our aim is to produce cement samples and rock samples, define brine compositions, conduct experiments to test experimental procedures and benchmark the performance of the Ocean Teams cement reactors, outline test protocols, and obtain novel knowledge about cement reactivity to predict behaviour when exposed to CCS conditions.
Track B)
The aim of WP4 (DTU lead) work package is to benchmark the capability of the OTS test rig for testing metallic materials in connection with CCS and validate the outcome while understanding the corrosion of different materials. Combination of laboratory scale testing (at DTU-MEK) and actual condition simulation tests (using OTS test rig) will be carried out.
Track C)
In close cooperation with both WP4 & 5 OTS will built upon already known technology and methods previously utilized by OTS in a co-funded (DHRTC) feasibility study, which demonstrated the functionality of an early prototype setup. A new and better flow-loop/ CCUS simulator will be designed, built, and tested. This will be benchmarked up against results found in the small-scale lab experiments conducted by GEUS and DTU.
