✦ Synopsis
11 Process heating, power and incineration (energy applications in industry) clean-up was identified as the most attractive thermochemical conversion technology, but it requires significant research and development. It was concluded that although co-firing in natural gas-fired turbines and CC has the potential to fulfill a significant portion of the main goal of the Dutch Renewable Energy Policy, CO2 reduction costs are relatively high vs. coal co-firing and the contribution to the future renewable energy based energy supply system in the Netherlands is limited due to the restricted amount of low calorific gas that can be cofired in conventional gas turbines and CC and their limited annual operating hours. By adjusting the turbine or CC, this amount can be increased; however, these adjustments involve significant investment costs and will make possible sole operation on natural gas less evident.
