The UKCCSRC, with IEAGHG, is hosting a virtual conference: 6th Post Combustion Capture Conference (PCCC-6) on 19–21 October 2021.

The IEAGHG Post Combustion Capture Conference (PCCC) series has established itself as the world’s leading conference series addressing post combustion CO₂ capture. Each conference is dedicated to sharing and publicising progress on all aspects of the technology, from innovative research to demonstration and beyond, from new and improved solvents to novel separation technologies, from technology cost to environmental impact. Given the recognition it has achieved, the conference series has become a magnet for the presentation of high calibre papers and posters and, as a consequence, for all those wishing simply for an update on the global status of post combustion capture.
