Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) is a key United Kingdom Government strategy for reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to combat the potentially catastrophic effects of climate change. The UK aims to capture and store 10 million tonnes of CO2 each year by 2030.Across the entire CCUS value chain, each of the stages require accurate measurement of CO2 at temperatures, pressures, flow rates and fluid phases that must be validated through a credible traceability chain for flow. This traceability chain would provide the underpinning confidence in meter performance, financial and fiscal transactions and, critically, environmental compliance. The UK-adopted version of the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) has specified an uncertainty value for CO2 flow measurement that must be adhered to. Accordingly, the provision of accurate and traceable flow measurement of CO2 in the UK and internationally will be essential for the successful operation of CCUS.Unfortunately, there are currently no CO2 flow measurement facilities in the world that are capable of traceable flow calibrations of gas phase, liquid/dense phase and supercritical phase CO2 that replicate real-world CCUS conditions. The absence of traceable CO2 gas and liquid flow measurement facilities and accompanying national or international flow measurement standards could seriously impede the widespread deployment of CCUS. These significant barriers could potentially jeopardise the successful implementation of CCUS projects worldwide, not least because these will be governed by legislation and environmental regulations requiring traceable measurement. This paper presents an overview of the current traceability chain for CO2 flow measurement in the UK and globally. Current challenges will be detailed along with potential solutions and opportunities for the measurement community.

“…68 The uncertainty of a Coriolis flowmeter has been reported as 0.11% by mass using a rig based on gravimetric calibration at Heriot-Watt University and flowing pure CO 2 in the liquid phase. 22,69 The performance of the Coriolis flowmeter was also investigated using the same flow rig and in the presence of mixtures of CO 2 and impurities representing the captured streams from pre-combustion, post-combustion and oxyfuel technologies. Tests were conducted in the steady state and transient conditions at temperature and pressure conditions expected in industrial CO 2 transport pipelines.…”

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power stations and industrial plants are seen as major contributors to what is known as the greenhouse gas (GHG) effect. Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) is one technology which may reduce the quantity of CO2 released into the atmosphere but development of CCS has slowed due to the absence of a viable financial model. Metering technology is a prerequisite in enabling realistic financial decisions to be taken; however, there is currently a paucity of research into the types of flowmeters which would be suitable for incorporating into CCS transportation chains. This paper reviews and summarizes existing metering technologies with a view to establishing their suitability for measuring high mass flowrate, supercritical CO2. Open channel, differential pressure, velocity measurement, direct mass measurement, and electrical, magnetic, thermal, sonic, and radiation technologies are all considered. The challenges associated with each generic group are described, and recommendations made regarding the practicalities of using particular types of meter for CO2 transport in CCS applications. © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
