Optimal conception of a post-combustion CO2 capture unit with assessment of solvent degradation
The combination of growing energy demand and environmental concerns has made the development of CO2 capture and storage technologies a necessity for the near-future energy mix. Post-combustion CO2 capture is one of the most mature technologies for reducing CO2 emissions in power plants. As a next step for the technology development, large-scale demonstration capture plants have to be implemente...
متن کاملComparing post-combustion CO2 capture operation at retrofitted coal-fired power plants in the Texas and Great Britain electric grids
This work analyses the carbon dioxide (CO2) capture system operation within the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) and Great Britain (GB) electric grids using a previously developed first-order hourly electricity dispatch and pricing model. The grids are compared in their 2006 configuration with the addition of coal-based CO2 capture retrofits and emissions penalties from 0 to 100 US...
متن کاملVolatile Co2 Prices Discourage Ccs Investment
Climate policy proposals based on cap and trade mechanisms with tight caps will likely lead to highly volatile CO2 prices. This volatility is ignored in many studies, even though it can be expected to exceed that of natural gas and to exceed the wide ranges in CO2 price forecasts. Volatility will significantly increase investment risk, raise the cost of capital, and make it valuable to defer in...
متن کاملWater-gas shift (WGS) operation of pre-combustion CO2 capture pilot plant at the Buggenum IGCC
In the Nuon/Vattenfall CO2 Catch-up project, a pre-combustion CO2 capture pilot plant was built and operated at the Buggenum IGCC power plant, the Netherlands. The pilot consist of sweet water-gas shift, physical CO2 absorption and CO2 compression. The technology performance was verified and validated models were obtained. This paper describes the validation of a WGS reactor model and the excel...
متن کاملDetection of Degradation Products of Monoethanolamine- a Post-combustion Co2 Capture Solvent
Using solid phase extraction (SPE) combined with HPLCfluorescence/photodiode array (PDA) detection several low molecular-weight alkylamines (including ethylamine and propylamine) have been detected in the gas-phase, released during the oxidative/thermal degradation of monoethanolamine (MEA), an amine-based postcombustion CO2 capture solvent. In this study, a 30 wt% aqueous MEA solution was degr...
