1. Introduction
CarbonCaptureandStorage(CCS)isrecognisedasoneofasuite ofsolutions required toreducecarbon dioxide(CO2)emissions
intotheatmosphereandcontributetowardsglobalclimatechange mitigation.InCCSschemes,CO2 is capturedfrompowerplants
orotherlargestationarysourcesandtransportedtoappropriate geological sites either for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) or for storage.Unlessthecaptureandstoragesitesareco-located,allCCS schemeswillinvolvethetransportationofCO2fromthecapture

thereforeanurgentrequirementtoreducethecostsofCCSinorder
that theimplementationof largescaleCCSschemesbecomes a
moreviableandattractiveoptionpostdemonstration(Sweeney, 2012).StudiesofthecostsofthefullCCSchainindicatethatthe largestcosts(whetherthatbeintermsoftheincreasedcostof elec-tricityorthecostpertonneofcapturedCO2)areassociatedwith
thecaptureprocess(MiddletonandBielicki,2009;Yanetal.,2008; ZEP,2011).However,withinthatchain,thecostoftransportation hastobeconsideredandcostreductionssoughtwherepossible
(GCCSI,2011).
Thecostofthepipelinesystemhasbeenshowntobeprimarily influencedbycapitalexpenditure(CAPEX)andtobeapproximately proportional tothe lengthof the network (ZEP, 2011; Knoope, 2013).Consequently,many studieshave investigatedthe
devel-opment of modelsto provide an optimaldesign for a pipeline
networkthatminimisesthepresentvalueforthecapitaland oper-atingcostsofthesystem(Brunsvoldetal.,2012;Kazmierczaketal.,

thattherearesevenparametersthatshouldbeoptimised simulta-neouslyinacomprehensivenetworkmodel;theamountofCO2to
becaptured;thelocationofthesources;therouteofthepipeline; thepipelinedimensions;thelocationofthesinks;theinjection volumeateachsinkandthedistributionoftheCO2inthepipeline
network.Howeveranotherkeyparameterthatneedstobe consid-eredisthepurityoftheCO2.
PreliminarystudieshaveindicatedthatthepurityoftheCO2
has a significant impact on pipeline transport costs
particu-larlyat lowerflowrates andlongerdistances(Yanet al.,2008) and, on this basis, it could be considered to be insufficientto
consider the stream as pure CO2 when conducting hydraulic
calculations. This paper investigates the effect of the purity of
theCO2 onpipelinecapacityandnetworkdevelopmentinmore
detail.
2. EffectOfImpuritiesOnPipelineHydraulics

4.1. EffectofImpuritiesonPipelineDiameterandInletPressure
Theresultsfortheeffectofimpurityonpipelineinternal diam-eter,relative to pureCO2,are represented diagrammatically in
Fig.10.Thisfigureindicatesthat,withtheadditionofupto4mol% ofN2,O2,Ar,CO,H2,H2SandCH4,theimpurityhasnoeffectonthe
calculationoftheoptimumdiametersizei.e.theinternaldiameter specifiedforthebinarycombinationofCO2withimpurityisexactly

isnorequirementtoincreasetheexternaldiameterofthepipeline overthatwhichwouldbespecifiedforpureCO2.However,forH2
inparticular,theadditionof15mol%increasestheinternal diam-eterby4.6%overpureCO2,buttheexternaldiameterisincreased
by6.2% over pure CO2. The reason for this is that the relative
cricondenbarandthereforetheinletpressure(Pi)forthe15%H2
mixture is significantly higher than for the other binary
com-ponents (Fig. 12).Consequently, based onEquation 2, thewall
thickness (and therefore the external diameter) needs to be
increasedforthesamepipelinematerial.Thisresultindicatesthat externalratherthaninternaldiametershouldbeusedincost calcu-lationsformoreimpurestreamstotakethecostofthisadditional materialintoaccount.
Fig. 12 also illustrates the relative effect of the types and amountsofdifferentimpuritiesontheinletpressureandallows thedifferent impurities tobe rankedin terms of theirefficacy
in increasinginletpressure. Therefore it canbeconcluded that atthe2mol%level,allimpuritieshaveasimilareffectonraising
the inlet pressure by 3% on average over pure CO2.
How-ever, the addition of 15mol% H2 doubles the inlet pressure
required compared to the 2mol% mixture, whereas the
addi-tion of 15% H2S has very little effect compared to the 2mol%
mixture.

Asmentionedpreviously,thecostcalculationsindicatedabove donottakeintoaccounttheinletpressureofthepipeline,which willaffectthestressinthepipelineandconsequentlythewall thick-nessrequirement.Increasinginletpressurewillalsoaffectthecost ofcompression.
The relative inlet pressure (i.e. the inlet pressure for each pipelinerelativetopureCO2)hasbeencalculatedforeach
composi-tionandeachnetworkcase.TheresultsarepresentedinFigs.17–19. Theresultsindicatethat,forallcases,theoxyfuel1compositionhas thehighestrelativeinletpressure.Thisstreamisthemostimpure stream,containingupto15mol%impurities,andbasedonthe anal-ysispresented inFig.12,thehigherthelevel ofimpurities,the highertheinletpressurehastobetomaintainthefluidinthedense phase.Similarlythepost-combustionstream,whichcontainsless than0.2mol%impurities,hasthelowestinletpressureforallcases. Itisof particularinteresttoobservetheresultsforthe oxy-fuel1andthepre-combustioncompositions,whichbothcontain 2mol%impurities.ForCases1and3,thepre-combustionstream resultsinhigherinletpressuresthantheoxyfuel2composition.In ordertoaccountforthis,comparisonneedstobemadebetweenthe breakdownofimpuritiesinthestreaminTable3andtheresultsof

5. Conclusions
As CCS projects start to move from preliminary design to
detaileddesignandtoeventualcommercialprojects,the compo-sitionoftheCO2streamwillbecomeofincreasingimportancein
realisingcostreductionsinboththecaptureandtransportpartsof thechain.Theaimofthisworkhasbeentoanalysetheeffectsof thecompositiononpipelinecostandnetworkdesignforadense phasepipelinenetworkandseveralkeyconclusionscanbedrawn toinformtheprocessofspecifyingtheCO2purityonthebasisof
hydraulicdesign.
Inbinary combinationin singlepipelines,additions ofupto 4mol%ofimpuritiesdonotaffectthediameterandwallthicknessof pipelinethatwouldbespecifiedduetotheuseofdiscretepipeline sizesinthisanalysis.Inanetworksituationwithmultiple impuri-tiespresent,thecompositionofthe“non-CO2”partofthestream
doesbecomeimportant.Theanalysispresentedinthispaper indi-catesthatimpurityadditionsupto2mol%didnotaffecttherelative cost/kmforthenetworksintermsofthepipelineinternaldiameter andlength.However,theinletpressureisincreasedforallofthe compositionsstudiedandthiswillaffectthecompression require-mentsandthereforeoperationalcost.Inthisrespect,ithasbeen shownthatthelevelsofH2andN2inparticularshouldbelimited.
Onthebasisoftheworkconducted,evenlevelsofH2upto1mol%
wereincreasingtherequiredinletpressurebyover6%.
Aninterestingconclusioncanbedrawnfromtherelativeinlet pressureanalysisforCase2.Inthiscase,therelativeinletpressures
forthe98% purestreams(oxyfuel 2and pre-combustion)were
almostidentical.Therefore,ithasbeenpossibletonegatetheeffect oftheH2inthepre-combustionstreamcompositionbydecreasing
thelengthsofthepipelines.Itisrecognisedthatthisoptionmight notalwaysbepossibleduetootherconstraintsofrouteingcaused byterrainandriskcriteriabutitisachoicethatcouldbeconsidered. Anotherkeyobservationfromthisworkrelatestotheoperation ofnetworkswithmultipleemitters.Ifanumberofemittersareto beincorporatedintoanetworkitisimportanttoconsiderthe rela-tivecontributionsofeachoftheemitterstotheflowrate.Ifthereis onelargeemitterinthenetworkandthisemitterisnotinputting
into thesystem,for whatever reason, then thewhole network
couldbecomeunstabledependingontheoverallcontributionthat thisemittermakestotheflowrate.Thisscenariocouldarisedue
toplannedor unplannedmaintenance atthe source,but could
alsooccurintheinitialstagesofstartingupanetwork.Ithasbeen suggestedthatonescenarioforinfrastructuredevelopmentcould betooversizetrunklinesintheanticipationoffutureadditions

Althoughthisstudyhasconcentratedontheeffectofimpurities onthehydraulicanalysisofpipelinesandnetworks,itis reiter-atedthat,whendeterminingapipelineCO2streamspecification,
theeffectsonallaspectsofpipelinedesignandoperationmustbe considered.Inparticularitisimportanttorecognisethatfracture
