An advanced oxy-fuel hybrid power system (AHPS) is proposed in this paper. Solar thermal energy is used in the AHPS to produce saturated steam as the working fluid, and natural gas is internally combusted with pure oxygen. It is in configuration close to the zero emission Graz cycle. The...

The continuous increase in energy demand and the growing attention on global warming worldwide have aroused great research interest in a novel near zero emission energy utilization system which is based on CaO sorption enhanced gasification. This paper presents the experimental results of...

Among all the CCS strategies, post-combustion capture provides a near-term solution for stationary fossil fuel-fired power plants, eliminating the need for substantial modifications to existing combustion processes and facilities. In this respect, adsorption using solid sorbents has the...

The Ca-Looping (CaL) technology, based on a dual gas-fluidized bed system of CaO/CaCO3 particles operated at high temperature, is a viable technological process for highly efficient pre-combustion and post-combustion CO2 capture. In this paper we show a lab-scale experimental study on the...
