The 2^nd Public SCARLET Workshop was held on 23 March 2017 in Darmstadt presented the results of the second phase of the project focusing on the scale-up and engineering of a 20 MW_th pilot plant including CFD simulations of the up-scaled pilot plant reactors. Integration scenarios of CCL retrofits at various full-scale reference power (hard coal, lignite) and industrial (cement, steel) plants were assessed evaluating thermodynamics, economics and environmental impact. In addition, experimental results from CCL pilot testing in a 1 MW_th pilot plant with more than 1,200 hours stable operation were presented.

We are pleased to invite you to the 2^nd Public Workshop organized in the context of the SCARLET research project. The workshop will be held on Thursday, 23 March 2017, between 09:00 and 17:00 CET at the premises of the Institute for Energy Systems and Technology (EST) at Technische Universität Darmstadt (Otto-Berndt-Str. 2, 64287 Darmstadt, Germany).

The SCARLET project acquired reliable information and tools for the scale-up of the Calcium Carbonate Looping (CCL) process and engineering of a 20 MW_th CCL plant by continuous self-sustaining pilot plant operation. The workshop will present experimental results from CCL pilot testing in a 1 MW_th pilot plant with more than 1,200 hours stable operation as well as the scale-up and engineering of a 20 MW_th pilot plant including CFD simulations of the up-scaled pilot plant reactors. Integration scenarios of CCL retrofits at various full-scale reference power (hard coal, lignite) and industrial (cement, steel) plants will be assessed evaluating thermodynamics, economics and environmental impact. Participants of the workshop will have the possibility to visit the 1 MW_th pilot plant!

The second SCARLET newsletter has been released and distributed to interested stakeholders of CCL. The newsletter can also be downloaded at the website. Further newsletters will be realeased every 6 months presenting the recent project developments. Interested parties can sign the newsletter with an email to info@project-scarlet.eu.

The update of the SCARLET Technology Implementation Plan has been released and can also be downloaded at the website.

The 1^st Public SCARLET Workshop presented the results of the first phase of the project focusing on the long-term pilot testing of the Calcium Carbonate Looping (CCL) process and the development and validation of scale-up tools:  process and 3D-CFD models. Also the possibility of a site visit of the 1 MW_th CCL pilot plant was given.

The participants were experts from the SCARLET consortium, other research insitutes and universities and industrial representatives – about 40 participants in all.
