The University of Sheffield awarded a contract to Newcastle University for the supply of a Rotating Packed Bed (RPB) CO2 capture system for the National Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC).

The system will separate CO2 from flue gases generated by coal, biomass, and gas-fired combustion systems and industrial sources, supporting research, development, and deployment activities in bioenergy, renewable energy, and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS).

The captured CO2 will be integrated into an on-site Fischer-Tropsch plant with renewable hydrogen to produce green fuel for full-chain CCUS demonstration.

The contract value is £290,000.
