this study investigated different concepts for natural-gas-fired power plants with the co2capture, and compared them based on the net plant efficiency and emission of co2. the cycles were based ona six oxy-fuel, one post-combustion and two pre-combustion capture concept. this paper presented theresults of an environmental evaluation performed by the application of the life cycle analysis (lca) ...

A commercial activated carbon supplied by Norit, R2030CO2, was evaluated as CO2 adsorbent under conditions relevant to post-combustion CO2 capture (ambient pressure and diluted CO2). It has been demonstrated that this carbon possesses sufficient CO2/N2 selectivity in order to efficiently separate a binary mixture composed of 17 % CO2 in N2. Moreover, this carbon was easily completely regenerate...

Greenhouse gases emission is known as the main factor of climate change, and carbon dioxide (CO2) makes up vast majority of them. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a vital technology to mitigate industrial CO2 emissions, which is mainly generated in power plants. Currently, post-combustion capture based on aqueous amine scrubbing is considered as the most suitable technology for CO2 capture. ...

Reducing CO2 emission and lowering the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has quickly become one of the most urgent environmental issues. While a variety of technologies and methods have been developed, the separation of CO2 from gas streams is still a critical issue. Apart from establishing new techniques, the exploration of membrane materials with high separation performance ...

China is the biggest coal product and consumption country around the world. Lots of coal consumption resulted huge carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, especially for coal-fired power plant in China. Oxy-fuel combustion is currently considered to be one of the major technologies for CO2 capture in power plants. The ash formation mechanism and mineral transformation in high CO2 atmosphere is different...
