Oxy-combustion is a competitive technology to capture CO2. Current air separation technologies for high volume O2 production are based on cryogenic distillation. When a double-column distillation cycle is applied to produce O2 with a purity of 95 mol%, the oxygen production process is causing...

A concept of coal-fired power plant built around a supercritical CO2 Brayton power cycle and 90% post-combustion CO2 capture have been designed. The power cycle has been adapted to the coal-fired boiler thermal output, this boiler has been roughly designed in order to assess the power cycle...

In this study, system layouts for integrated gasification solid oxide fuel cell/gas turbine (IG-SOFC/GT) systems were proposed and their performance was comparatively evaluated. A baseline IGCC was simulated, and the calculation models were validated. Based on the IGCC system, two IG-SOFC/GT...

A novel methanol-based power system with Chemical-Looping Combustion (CLC) is proposed in this paper. CLC system is a promising approach to greatly decrease the energy penalty for CO2 removal, where iron oxides circulate between two reactors and an inherent CO2 separation occurs. The combustion...

Nowadays, the global warming is considered as a world problem because it influences the environment by increasing the average temperature of earth surface. One of the greenhouse gases that release from human activities and fossil fuels combustion in industry is CO2. Several technologies are...

The performance differences between the fluidized-bed and the fixed-bed operation modes were comparatively studied in a pressurized coal-fuelled chemical looping combustion (CLC) process. Pressurized thermogravimetric (TG) analysis was applied to elucidate the findings observed in pressurized...

Driven by the search for high efficiency power generation with low CO2 emissions, several works in the last years investigated the integration of gas turbine cycles and high temperature fuel cells to arrange power plants with CO2 capture.

This paper presents a power plant concept based on an oxy-fired circulating fluidized bed combustor (oxy-CFBC) combined with thermal energy storage on a large scale. The concept exploits to full advantage the large circulation flows of high temperature solids that are characteristic of these...

In this paper, we experimentally investigated the time evolution of compositions in the gas phase and the hydrate slurry during long-term operations of hydrate-based CO2 separation. We performed continuous gas separation experiments at pressure of 2.3MPa and temperature of 273.2K. We continually...
