(LEAD) S. Korea to start testing carbon capture pilot plant
SEOUL, March 11 (Yonhap) -- South Korea will start technical evaluation testing of a carbon capture pilot plant at a local coal-fired thermal power unit this week, the government said Thursday.
The Ministry of Education, Science and Technology said the facility set up at the plant in Hadong, located about 470 kilometers southeast of Seoul, is the first of its kind to use dry absorbents to keep carbon dioxide (CO2) gases from being released into the atmosphere.
