Abstract |
The paper describes a combined cycle power plant with carbon capture installation in a post-combustion
technology. Carbon dioxide is separated from flue gas by using a chemical absorption method with
monoethanolamine (MEA) as a sorbent. Separated carbon dioxide is compressed in order to prepare for
transportation to the storage place. This paper identifies the electric efficiencies and other characteristic
parameters of power plants before and after implementation of CO2 capture installation, as well as the power
plant efficiency drop, and the improvement of ecological characteristics related to the implementation of this
installation. The implementation of the installation described herein is associated with the efficiency loss
caused by the auxiliary power for additional installations. The CO2 separation installation is powered by heat
energy required for reclaiming the sorbent. This energy is taken in the form of steam extracted from the steam
cycle, thus reducing the steam turbine power output, while the CO2 compression installation is powered by
electric energy. |
