A simulated H2O/CO2 condenser design for oxy-fuel CO2 capture process

Development of Semiclosed Cycle Gas Turbine for Oxy-Fuel IGCC Power Generation with CO2 Capture

Qualitative and Quantitative Comparison of Two Promising Oxy-fuel Power Cycles for Co2 Capture

Since the Kyoto conference there is a broad consensus that the human emission of greenhouse gases, mainly CO2, has to be reduced. In the power generation sector there are three main alternatives which are currently studied world wide. Among them oxy-fuel cycles with internal combustion with pure oxygen are a very promising technology. Within the European project ENCAP – ENhanced CO2 CAPture the...

Two novel oxy-fuel power cycles integrated with natural gas reforming and CO2 capture

Two novel system configurations were proposed for oxy-fuel natural gas turbine systems with integrated steam reforming and CO2 capture and separation. The steam reforming heat is obtained from the available turbine exhaust heat, and the produced syngas is used as fuel with oxygen as the oxidizer. Internal combustion is used, which allows a very high heat input temperature. Moreover, the turbine...

Materials Performance of Structural Alloys in Simulated Oxy-fuel Environments*

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy is intensely promoting research and development of oxy-fuel combustion systems that employ oxygen, instead of air, for burning the fuel. The resulting flue gas primarily consists of H2O and CO2 that facilitates sequestration of CO2 or use it in a turbine to generate electricity, thereby leading to reduction in CO2 emissions. Also, as t...

Functionalized Polymeric Membranes 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 ...
