摘要:
The present invention relates to systems and methods for providing steam to a gas recovery unit 130 based on changes to steam flow to and/or power generated by a power generation unit 119. The gas recovery unit 130 may part of a thermal power generation unit 100 and may be an amine based CO2 recovery unit including two or more regenerator columns 153.
摘要:
A system (100) for regenerating an absorbent solution, including: steam (128) produced by a boiler (130); a set of pressure turbines (132) fluidly coupled to the boiler; a siphoning mechanism (134) for siphoning at least a portion of the steam produced by the boiler; and a regenerating system (118) fluidly coupled to the siphoning mechanism, wherein siphoned steam is utilized as a heat source for the regenerating system.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of controlling a power plant, which power plant comprises: a boiler being adapted for combusting an organic fuel and for generating steam and a process gas comprising carbon dioxide; a steam system being; and a carbon dioxide capture system being adapted to remove at least a portion of the carbon dioxide from the process gas by contacting a carbon dioxide absorbent solution with the process gas, the method comprising: forwarding a portion of the steam produced by the power plant boiler to a regenerator of the carbon dioxide capture system; regenerating the absorbent solution in said regenerator through heating of said carbon dioxide absorbent solution by means of the forwarded steam; and automatically controlling the operation of the carbon capture system by means of at least one automatic controller. The invention also relates to a power plant including a carbon dioxide capture system.
摘要:
A method for managing an amount of energy utilized by a carbon dioxide capture system that includes providing a fuel and a feed stream including oxygen to a combustion system. The feed stream includes a portion of a flue gas stream generated upon combustion of the fuel in the combustion system. The flue gas stream is subjected to a carbon dioxide capture system to remove carbon dioxide therefrom and an amount of at least one of an oxygen stream or the portion of the flue gas stream introduced to the feed stream is adjusted such that the feed stream maintains an oxygen concentration in a range of between 10% to 90% by volume and the carbon dioxide capture system operates at an energy load between about 1.4 GJ/ton of carbon dioxide and about 3.0 GJ/ton of carbon dioxide.

A method is provided for managing an amount of energy utilized by a carbon dioxide capture system. The method includes providing a fuel and a feed stream to a combustion system. The feed stream includes oxygen and a portion of a flue gas stream generated upon combustion of the fuel. The method also includes subjecting the flue gas stream to a carbon dioxide capture system to remove carbon dioxide therefrom, measuring a concentration of oxygen present in the feed stream, and selectively adjusting an amount of the flue gas stream included in the feed stream based on the measured concentration of oxygen in the feed stream. The selective adjustment is performed such that the feed stream maintains an oxygen concentration in a range of between about 10% to 90% by volume and the carbon dioxide capture system operates at an energy load between 1.4 GJ/ton of carbon dioxide and 3.0 GJ/ton of carbon dioxide.
