Illinois State Geological Survey Evaluation of CO2 Capture Options from Ethanol Plants. Topical Report.

Abstract The Illinois State Geological Survey and the Midwest Geological Sequestration Consortium are conducting CO2 sequestration and enhanced oil recovery testing at six different sites in the Illinois Basin. The capital and operating costs for equipment to capture and liquefy CO2 from ethanol plants in the Illinois area were evaluated so that ethanol plants could be considered as an alternate source for CO2 in the event that successful enhanced oil recovery tests create the need for additional sources of CO2 in the area. Estimated equipment and operating costs needed to capture and liquefy 68 metric tonnes/day (75 tons/day) and 272 tonnes/day (300 tons/day) of CO2 for truck delivery from an ethanol plant are provided. Estimated costs are provided for food/beverage grade CO2 and also for less purified CO2 suitable for enhanced oil recovery or sequestration. The report includes preliminary plant and equipment designs and estimates major capital and operating costs for each of the recovery options. Availability of used equipment was assessed.
