Current status of CO2 chemical absorption research applied to CCS: Towards full deployment at industrial scale

A CO2 recovery apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes: a CO2 absorber that brings flue gas containing CO2 into contact with CO2 absorbing liquid to reduce CO2 in the flue gas; a regenerator that reduces CO2 in CO2 absorbing liquid (rich solvent) that has absorbed the CO2 in the CO2 absorber to regenerate the CO2 absorbing liquid, so that the regenerated absorbing liquid (lean solvent), having CO2 reduced in the regenerator, is reused in the CO2 absorber; a first compressor to a fourth compressor that compress the CO2 gas released from the regenerator; and an O2 reducing apparatus arranged between the second compressor and a second cooler to reduce O2 in the CO2 gas.

Co2 recovery apparatus and co2 recovery method

Carbon capture from large sources and ambient air is one of the most promising strategies to curb the deleterious effect of greenhouse gases. Among different technologies, CO2 adsorption has drawn widespread attention mostly because of its low energy requirements. Considering that water vapor is a ubiquitous component in air and almost all CO2-rich industrial gas streams, understanding its impact on CO2 adsorption is of critical importance. Owing to the large diversity of adsorbents, water plays many different roles from a severe inhibitor of CO2 adsorption to an excellent promoter. Water may also increase the rate of CO2 capture or have the opposite effect. In the presence of amine-containing adsorbents, water is even necessary for their long-term stability. The current contribution is a comprehensive review of the effects of water whether in the gas feed or as adsorbent moisture on CO2 adsorption. For convenience, we discuss the effect of water vapor on CO2 adsorption over four broadly defined groups of materials separately, namely (i) physical adsorbents, including carbons, zeolites and MOFs, (ii) amine-functionalized adsorbents, and (iii) reactive adsorbents, including metal carbonates and oxides. For each category, the effects of humidity level on CO2 uptake, selectivity, and adsorption kinetics under different operational conditions are discussed. Whenever possible, findings from different sources are compared, paying particular attention to both similarities and inconsistencies. For completeness, the effect of water on membrane CO2 separation is also discussed, albeit briefly.

[Object] To further reduce the concentrations of basic amine compounds remaining in decarbonated flue gas. [Means of Solution] A CO2 recovery system includes an absorber 2 and a regenerator 3. The absorber 2 includes a CO2 absorbing section 21 and at least one water-washing section 22. The CO2 absorbing section 21 allows flue gas 101 to come into contact with a basic amine compound absorbent 103 so that the basic amine compound absorbent 103 absorbs CO2 in the flue gas 101. The at least one water-washing section 22 allows the decarbonated flue gas 101A in which the amount of CO2 has been reduced in the CO2 absorbing section 21 to come into contact with wash water 104A and 104B to reduce the amounts of the basic amine compounds entrained in the decarbonated flue gas 101A. The regenerator 3 releases the CO2 from the basic amine compound absorbent 103 containing CO2 absorbed therein. This CO2 recovery system further includes an absorbent-treating section 23 disposed downstream of the at least one water-washing section 22 through which the decarbonated flue gas 101A flows. The absorbent-treating section 23 allows the decarbonated flue gas 101A to come into contact with circulating acidic water 105 to further reduce the amounts of the basic amine compounds entrained in the decarbonated flue gas 101A.

An apparatus for recovering CO2 having an absorbing tower (13) for contacting a CO2-containing gas (11) containing CO2 with a CO2-absorbing fluid (12) absorbing CO2, for the removal of CO2, and a regenerating tower (15) for regenerating a rich solution (14) having absorbed CO2, and reutilizing, in the absorbing tower (13), a lean solution (16) having been removed of CO2 in said regenerating tower (15), which comprises a regeneration heater (18) for withdrawing a lean solution (16) recovered in the vicinity of the bottom of the regenerating tower (15) to the outside thereof and subjecting the lean solution to the heat-exchange with a high temperature steam (17), and a steam-condensed water heat exchanger (21) being provided in a rich solution supplying line (20) supplying a rich solution (14) to the regenerating tower (15) from the absorbing tower (13) for heating said rich solution (14) by the use of the remaining heat of the steam-condensed water (19) from the above regeneration heater (18).

Apparatus and method for recovering co2

A CO2 recovery system includes an absorption tower and a regeneration tower. A CO2 rich solution is produced in the absorption tower by absorbing CO2 from a CO2-containing gas. The CO2 rich solution is conveyed to the regeneration tower where a lean solution is produced from the rich solution by removing CO2. A regeneration heater heats the lean solution that accumulates near a bottom portion of the regeneration tower with saturated steam thereby producing steam condensate from the saturated steam. A steam-condensate heat exchanger heats the rich solution conveyed from the absorption tower to the regeneration tower with the steam condensate.
