O&M Cost

← Previous | Next →

This is a standard O&M cost result screen. The membrane system has the following variable cost components:

•Membrane Replacement Cost

•Electricity: The cost of electricity consumed by the membrane system.

•Caustic (NaOH): (Only shown for 2-Stage Cascade ) This is the cost of NaOH caustic used by the SO2 polisher.

•Water: (Only shown for 2-Stage Cascade ) This is the annual cost for water.

•CO2 Transport: The CO2 captured at the power plant site has to be carried to the appropriate storage/disposal site. Transport of CO2 to a storage site is assumed to be via pipeline. This is the annual cost of maintaining those pipelines.

•CO2 Storage: Once the CO2 is captured, it needs to be securely stored (sequestered). This cost is based on the option chosen on the T&S Config parameter screen .

•Auxiliary CCS Cooling System: (Only shown when an Air Cooled Condenser is configured.) This is the cost of the auxiliary cooling system needed when an Air Cooled Condenser is used as the plant cooling system.
