As oxy-fuel power generation is currently on the pre-demonstration stage of development many studies dealing with optimization and simulation aspects are still in progress. This paper is focused on the development of a simulation model of the integrated oxy-fuel system and cumulative energy...

The thermal reactivity and kinetics of five coal chars, a biomass char, and two coal/biomass char blends in an oxy-fuel combustion atmosphere (30%O2–70%CO2) were studied using the non-isothermal thermogravimetric method at three heating rates. Fuel chars were obtained by devolatilization in an...

The ignition temperature, burnout and NO emissions of blends of a semi-anthracite and a high-volatile bituminous coal with 10 and 20 wt.% of olive waste were studied under oxy-fuel combustion conditions in an entrained flow reactor (EFR). The results obtained under several oxy-fuel atmospheres...

Conventional two-channel ITM (ion transport membrane) reactors applied to oxy-combustion, face the potential drawback of high thermal gradients and high local temperatures, which can result in membrane damage. In such reactors, air flows on the feed side and fuel are introduced on the permeate...

High CO2 purity products can be obtained from oxy-combustion power plants through a CO2 CPU (compression and purification unit) based on phase separation method. To ensure that CPU (with double flash separators) can be operated under optimal conditions, this paper focuses on single variable...

There are four strategies to combating global warming, namely by directly reducing greenhouse gas emissions, or indirectly through expanding renewable energy employment, more efficient use of energy, or a wide range of climate policies. This study reports a bibliometric analysis of direct carbon...

The effect of varying the fuel and oxidizer composition on flame characteristics in a non-premixed oxy-methane flame was experimentally investigated in a lab-scale furnace with a slot-type burner. The fuel composition was varied in the range of XF,CH4 = 70∼100%, XF,H2 = 0∼15%,...

There are four strategies to combating global warming, namely by directly reducing greenhouse gas emissions, or indirectly through expanding renewable energy employment, more efficient use of energy, or a wide range of climate policies. This study reports a bibliometric analysis of direct carbon...

Oxy-fuel combustion is one of the clean coal combustion technologies for CO2 capture. However, post-combustion capture is studied as a challenged technology against oxy-fuel combustion. This paper presented the life cycle assessment (LCA) of these two CO2 capture technologies used in the 300 MW...

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...
