Kedzierzyn Zero-Emission Plant

Kedzierzyn Zero-Emission Plant

The Kędzierzyn Zero-Emission Power and Chemical Complex is a proposed facility in Kędzierzyn-Koźle, Poland. It will combine power and heat generation with that of chemical products and carbon capture and storage. The project is proposed by a consortium of chemicals producer Zakłady Azotowe Kędzierzyn and electricity company Południowy Koncern Energetyczny. The plant will produce synthesis gas by gasification of hard coal. The produced gas will be used for power and heat generation or for production of chemicals. The plant will capture produced carbon dioxide (CO₂), which will be stored in natural geological reservoirs or used as a raw material for production of synthesis fuels, fertilisers or plastics.
