Oxy-Fuel Research Center Hammond Test Facility

Since 2007, Jupiter Oxygen has operated a 15 MWthermal oxy-fuel test boiler in its research center in Hammond, Indiana. This oxy-fuel test boiler is Jupiter’s 3rd generation oxy-fuel development unit. The unit and testing are supported through federal funding and conducted with the DOE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL).

The development work is based upon Jupiter’s unique oxy-fuel combustion technology and NETL’s Integrated Pollution Removal [IPR] system. This development facility utilizes a 50 MMBtu high flame temperature oxy-fuel burner that serves a 5 MWe equivalent test unit.

Jupiter Oxygen’s research center is leading the application of this oxy-fuel technology worldwide and provides developmental engineering for oxy-combustion power plant retrofits as well as new build plants.
