Tender description

With co-funding from the European Regional Development Fund, the University of Sheffield is establishing a flagship national Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC) to provide a multi-technology, integrated research, development and deployment platform, encompassing a portfolio of facilities focusing on low-carbon energy generation and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies, integrated together with an overarching smart energy management system. To establish the centre, the University of Sheffield is looking to procure a wide range of equipment focusing on bioenergy, renewable energy and CCUS technologies – with an extensive supporting infrastructure of a suite of analytical facilities. This tender document is specifically focused on the procurement of an inductively coupled plasma (ICP), which will be used online to assess the species and levels of entrained metal aerosols in the flue gases from on-site various systems. With co-funding from the European Regional Development Fund, the University of Sheffield is establishing a flagship national Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC) to provide a multi-technology, integrated research, development and deployment platform, encompassing a portfolio of facilities focusing on low-carbon energy generation and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies, integrated together with an overarching smart energy management system. The centre will promote and support research, innovation and demonstration of individual and integrated technologies with the purpose of encouraging and accelerating technology development, validation and demonstration and ultimately technology commercialisation and uptake. Part of the Centre’s remit is also to explore how different technologies can be combined into integrated systems in the most effective and complementary manner.
