2. 1. CO2 capture from oxy-fuel combustion power plants

   Author : Yukun Hu; Jinyue Yan; Erik Dahlquist; Mats Westermark; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO2 capture; oxy-fuel combustion; flue gas recycle; evaporative gas turbine; techno- economic evaluation;

   Abstract : To mitigate the global greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions, carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (CCS) has the potential to play a significant role for reaching mitigation target. Oxy-fuel combustion is a promising technology for CO2 capture in power plants. READ MORE

4. 2. A Thermoeconomic Evaluation of CO2 Capture with Focus on Gas Turbine-Based Power Plants

   Author : Björn Fredriksson Möller; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Termisk teknik; climate change; optimisation; genetic algorithms; applied thermodynamics; Thermal engineering; AZEP; GTPOM; gas turbine; CO2 capture; thermoeconomy; termodynamik;

   Abstract : The increasing emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning are today thought to be one of the main contributors to global warming. At the same time, developing countries are striving for an increased welfare and burning more fossil fuel, which in turn is augmenting the greenhouse gas effect. READ MORE

5. 3. Thermodynamic Properties of CO2 Mixtures and Their Applications in Advanced Power Cycles with CO2 Capture Processes

   Author : Hailong Li; Jinyue Yan; Umberto Desideri; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermodynamic property; vapour liquid equilibrium; density; equation of state; interaction parameter; CO2 mixtures; evaporative gas turbine; chemical absorption; oxy-fuel combustion; cost evaluation; CO2 capture and storage; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : The thermodynamic properties of CO2-mixtures are essential for the design and operation of CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) systems. A better understanding of the thermodynamic properties of CO2 mixtures could provide a scientific basis to define a proper guideline of CO2 purity and impure components for the CCS processes according to technical, safety and environmental requirements.

6. 4. The chemical nature of CO2 adsorption in zeolite A

   Author : Przemyslaw Rzepka; Niklas Hedin; Webley Paul; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CO2 adsorption; flue gas CO2 capture; biogas upgrading; zeolite |NaK|-A; physisorption; chemisorption; kinetic separation; in situ diffraction; synchrotron XRD; NPD; NMR; IR; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

   Abstract : The climate changes are accelerated by increasing levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere connected to the fossil-fuel-based energy system. Substantial reforms of the system are needed immediately and could include the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. READ MORE

7. 5. Post-Combustion CO2 Capture in Kraft Pulp Mills - Technical, Economic and System Aspects

   Author : Erik Hektor; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical absorption; Excess heat; Post-combustion; Chilled ammonia; Process integration; Mono-ethanolamine; Pulp and paper; CO2 capture;

   Abstract : As a result of increasing concerns about climate change, there is considerable research and activities around CO2 capture and storage. In this thesis it is studied what role the pulp and paper industry can play in mitigating climate change through CO2 capture and storage. READ MORE
