Abstract
Thermochemical processing of sustainable biomass paired with carbon capture and storage has the potential to provide 1/7th of the emission mitigations necessary for the world to meet net-zero targets by 2050 while also providing carbon-negative fuel, electricity, and economic development. This work has developed coating solutions to mitigate the hot corrosion that occurs when biomass is processed in boilers, gasifiers, and other thermal conversion equipment, in addition to coating solutions to mitigate solid particle erosion that occurs when steam turbines are used for aggressive load following. Analysis of 66 hot corrosion coatings and 75 solid particle erosion coatings reveals unique mechanisms that enable significantly improved performance relative to conventional coatings used today without increasing material cost. Implications of this work to fuel flexibility, process efficiency, and lessons learned utilizing ICME will also be discussed. This material is based upon work supported by the Department of Energy under Award Number DE-FE0031911.
