To meter and mix component gases: CO2, N2, CA, to generate representative flue /process gas mixtures or to modulate real flue/process gases, whereby the CO2 is fed from:

• the wet scrubber after demister and Dryer or
• the dry scrubber or
• bulk CO2 from site supply for subsequent scrubbing the wet /dry scrubber, as a standalone gas or as part of the overall synthetic/real flue/process gas mixture

The skid (within its monitoring and control capability) would also meter flue gas/air flowrate and control the flue gas VSD fan as well as the inlet probe and diverter

Optionally the skid will also incorporate an additional line for O2 flow metering and control for direct injection into the flue gas where O2 levels are too low , where the O2 will likely be supplied from onsite electrolysis.

For emergency stop the skid should also have a separate fixed flow N2 supply (Flow setting TBC) from site services supply (7-8.5bar, 22mm, 10000L/min shared supply) for cathode supply train purge (covering Fuel cell module, cathode superheater, and recuperator.
