Abstract:
A coal fired oxy boiler power plant is disclosed in which a steam coil oxygen preheater located on an oxygen line Air Separation Unit is thermally integrated with the condensate system. Thermal energy for the steam coil oxygen preheater is provided via an extraction line connected to a steam extraction port of an intermediate pressure steam turbine. A drain line of the steam coil oxygen preheater fluidly connects the steam coil oxygen preheater to a point of the Rankine steam cycle fluidly within the condensate system.
Abstract:
A coal fired Oxy boiler power plant with a condensate system, combustion system and post combustion CO2 capture plant configured and arranged to remove CO2 from a flue gas stream generated in the combustion system. The condensation system includes a plurality of serial low pressure heaters arranged in flow series downstream of the pump and at least one parallel low pressure heater arranged fluidly parallel to at least one of the serial low pressure heaters. Flue Gas Heat Recovery System, Flue Gas Condenser and Gas Processing unit are thermally integrated into the condensate system.
Abstract:
A coal fired Oxy boiler power plant having a combustion system configured to burn coal using an oxygen stream to produce a flue gas stream, a CO2 capture system connected to the flue gas stream and a steam cycle with serially arranged low pressure heaters forming part of a condensate system. The combustion system includes, an Air Separation Unit for removing N2 from air to produce the oxygen stream for the boiler. The Air Separation Unit includes an Air Separation Unit heat exchanger that is thermally and fluidly connected to the condensate system so as to be fluidly parallel to at least one serial low pressure heater and fluidly parallel to at least one less that the total number of serial low pressure heaters. The Flue Gas Heat Recovery System, Flue Gas Condenser and Gas Processing unit are thermally integrated into the condensate system.
