CO2 Condenser - Preliminary Market Engagement

The following summary is not intended as a complete or definitive specification of the requirement. A purpose of this engagement notice is to seek information from the market to help refine our understanding and aid the development of a future specification.

UKIFS is seeking experts to support the design and development of a CO2 condenser that is part of the STEP power cycle. This is because a high-performance CO2 condenser is critical to the efficiency of the STEP powerplant (supercritical and/or transcritical CO2 power generation cycles are currently the preferred concept for the STEP prototypic plant). The proposed technical and operating conditions of the proposed CO2 condenser are:

•Operating pressure is between ca. 60-100 bar for the CO2 stream

•Operating inlet temperature will be between ca. 50 - 110°C. The outlet temperature will be between ca. 20-25 °C for the CO2 stream.

•Thermal duty is in the range of 1-2 GWth.

•The equipment must comply with UK pressure equipment regulations.

Note: both wet and dry cooling options are of interest, as are both existing and novel technologies or design approaches.
