Download or read book Absorption Based Post Combustion Capture of Carbon Dioxide written by Paul Feron and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-27 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Absorption-Based Post-Combustion Capture of Carbon Dioxide provides a comprehensive and authoritative review of the use of absorbents for post-combustion capture of carbon dioxide. As fossil fuel-based power generation technologies are likely to remain key in the future, at least in the short- and medium-term, carbon capture and storage will be a critical greenhouse gas reduction technique. Post-combustion capture involves the removal of carbon dioxide from flue gases after fuel combustion, meaning that carbon dioxide can then be compressed and cooled to form a safely transportable liquid that can be stored underground. - Provides researchers in academia and industry with an authoritative overview of the amine-based methods for carbon dioxide capture from flue gases and related processes - Editors and contributors are well known experts in the field - Presents the first book on this specific topic

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The methodology of life cycle assessment has been applied in order to evaluate the environmental performance of the Saskatchewan lignite Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) based electricity generation with and without pre-combustion carbon dioxide (CO2) capture process from a full life cycle perspective. The emphasis is put on environmental performance of the comparison between IGCC systems (with and without CO2 capture) and the competing lignite pulverized coal electricity generating station in order to reveal which technology offers the most positive environmental effects. Moreover, ambient air pollutant modeling, the human health benefit (health outcomes) and human health risk assessment are also conducted to determine the impact on human health contributed by the level of pollutants emitted from four different electricity generating stations. This study assumes that all stations are located in Estevan. The results showed a significant reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by applying both post-combustion and pre-combustion CO2 capture process. The GHG emissions were found to be reduced by 27%-86%, IGCC systems were found to compare favorably to pulverized coal systems. However, in other environmental impacts categories, some of them have multiple environmental trade-offs depending on the capture technology. In the case of post-combustion capture, it was observed that the environmental impact was shifted from the air compartment to the soil and water compartments. IGCC systems, on the other hand, showed the same tendency with the conventional coal-fired electricity generation systems, but to a lower degree. This is because the IGCC system is a cleaner technology which produces lower pollutant emission levels from the electricity generating station process, thus the benefits of capture are reduced on a comparative basis. The health benefits assessment indicated that by implementing IGCC and IGCC with CO2 capture will result in significant health benefits for people living in the Estevan area and the magnitude of the benefit will also increase substantially by 2020. However, results indicated the reduction in health benefits when implementing a post combustion CO2 capture process to conventional coal-fired electricity generating station. The reduction in health benefits on "PC with Capture" scenario was mainly due to the high level of PM2.5 air concentration due to implementing post combustion CO2 capture process. The frequency of negative health impacts due to air pollution emitted from IGCC and IGCC with pre-combustion capture plant was predicted to be reduced by the improvement in air quality. The results from health risk assessment (HRA) showed no possibility of developing either cancer or non-cancer health impacts from IGCC systems. For both conventional coal-fired pulverized electricity generating stations with and without post-combustion CO2 capture process, the results of carcinogenic health risk showed a potential for adverse health effects existing during short-term dispersion of Chromium whereas long-term dispersion showed an acceptable level of pollutant concentration. For non-carcinogenic health risk on both conventional coal-fired pulverized electricity generating stations, the results indicate that the heavy metals dispersions were unlikely to cause health risk to population residing within 10 km (area 20 km x 20 km) radius from the studied area.

Book excerpt: Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is widely seen as a critical strategy for limiting atmospheric emissions of carbon dioxide from power plants and other large industrial sources. The future use of coal in the United States will depend on whether and how CCS is deployed if legislative and regulatory actions curtail future carbon dioxide emissions. This report assesses prospects for improved, lower-cost technologies for each of the three current approaches to capturing carbon dioxide atmospheric emissions: post-combustion capture; pre-combustion capture; and oxy-combustion capture.

Download or read book 23 European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering written by Grégoire Léonard and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamic model of a post-combustion capture pilot plant is developed using Aspen Plus Dynamics. An innovative process control strategy is studied for regulating the water balance of the process. A washing section where the flue gas from the absorber is washed with cold water is included to the process in order to reduce the emissions of amine to the air. Control of the water balance in the solvent loop is successfully achieved by changing the washing water temperature. In previous publications regarding CO2 capture pilot plants, the regulation of the water balance always required a water make-up flow which appears here as unnecessary. Rejection of disturbances and different load reduction scenarios are tested to confirm the efficiency of this strategy. Potential operational problems of this control strategy are identified and solved.

Download or read book Negative Emissions Technologies and Reliable Sequestration written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To achieve goals for climate and economic growth, "negative emissions technologies" (NETs) that remove and sequester carbon dioxide from the air will need to play a significant role in mitigating climate change. Unlike carbon capture and storage technologies that remove carbon dioxide emissions directly from large point sources such as coal power plants, NETs remove carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere or enhance natural carbon sinks. Storing the carbon dioxide from NETs has the same impact on the atmosphere and climate as simultaneously preventing an equal amount of carbon dioxide from being emitted. Recent analyses found that deploying NETs may be less expensive and less disruptive than reducing some emissions, such as a substantial portion of agricultural and land-use emissions and some transportation emissions. In 2015, the National Academies published Climate Intervention: Carbon Dioxide Removal and Reliable Sequestration, which described and initially assessed NETs and sequestration technologies. This report acknowledged the relative paucity of research on NETs and recommended development of a research agenda that covers all aspects of NETs from fundamental science to full-scale deployment. To address this need, Negative Emissions Technologies and Reliable Sequestration: A Research Agenda assesses the benefits, risks, and "sustainable scale potential" for NETs and sequestration. This report also defines the essential components of a research and development program, including its estimated costs and potential impact.
