چکیده
This paper studies different IGCC systems with CO2 recovery. In order to effectively reduce CO2 emissions from the IGCC system, several kinds of IGCC systems with quasizero CO2 emissions have been studied in this paper. The key parameters affecting the IGCC systems’ performance have been analyzed and compared. The systems’ performances have been investigated based on comparison of different IGCC systems. The obtained results show that integrating the IGCC system with an advanced thermal cycle is an effective and feasible way. The performances of the IGCC systems with O2/CO2 cycle and syngas separation are better than that with a simple semi-closed O2/CO2 cycle. The research achievements will provide valuable information for further study on IGCC systems with low CO2 emissions.

Energy and exergy analysis of chemical looping combustion technology and comparison with pre-combustion and oxy-fuel combustion technologies for CO2 capture
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from conventional coal-based power plants is a growing concern for the environment. Chemical looping combustion (CLC), pre-combustion and oxy-fuel combustion are promising CO2 capture technologies which allow clean electricity generation from coal in an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plant. This work compares the characteristics of the above thr...
متن کاملReducing life cycle greenhouse gas emissions of corn ethanol by integrating biomass to produce heat and power at ethanol plants
A life-cycle assessment (LCA) of corn ethanol was conducted to determine the reduction in the life-cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for corn ethanol compared to gasoline by integrating biomass fuels to replace fossil fuels (natural gas and grid electricity) in a U.S. Midwest dry-grind corn ethanol plant producing 0.19 hm y 1 of denatured ethanol. The biomass fuels studied are corn stover an...
متن کاملBaseload coal investment decisions under uncertain carbon legislation.
More than 50% of electricity in the U.S. is generated by coal. The U.S. has large coal resources, the cheapest fuel in most areas. Coal fired power plants are likely to continue to provide much of U.S. electricity. However, the type of power plant that should be built is unclear. Technology can reduce pollutant discharges and capture and sequester the CO2 from coal-fired generation. The U.S. En...
متن کاملComparative Assessments of Fossil Fuel Power Plants
Studies of CO2 capture and storage (CCS) costs necessarily employ a host of technical and economic assumptions regarding the particular technology or system of interest, including details regarding the capture technology design, the power plant or gas stream treated, and the methods of CO2 transport and storage. Because the specific assumptions employed can dramatically affect the results of an...
متن کاملCo2 Emission and Carbon Capture for Coal Fired Power Plants in Malaysia and Indonesia
Coal consumption in Malaysia and Indonesia is growing at the rate of 9.7 and 4.7% per year since 2002, respectively. The increase in coal utilization usually tallies fairly well with the increase in CO2 emission. The present study attempts at predicting the emissions of CO2 from coal fired power plants from 2005 until 2020. The paper also analyzes the potential of carbon capture (CC) program as...
