“…The initial 16 months of operations involved the testing of monoethanolamine and a new ACC solvent after which tests were run by the TCM partners. de Koeijer et al (2011) indicate that for TCM, the quality and quantity of emissions from the absorber to air became top priority, which represented a health and environmental uncertainty, mainly due to the lack of reliable and accessible experimental data. Some results from this demonstration plant were presented during GHGT-12 in Austin, Texas (Maxson et al, 2014;Hamborg et al, 2014a,b;FalkPedersen et al, 2014;Brigman et al, 2014;Morken et al, 2014a,b;Gorset et al, 2014a,b).…”

“…TCM aims to increase knowledge on carbon capture technologies, in order to reduce technical and financial risk, and accelerate the development of qualified technologies capable of wide scale international deployment. According to de Koeijer et al (2011), TCM consists of two large post-combustion CO 2 capture demonstration plants near the Statoil operated Mongstad refinery, located at the Norwegian west coast north of Bergen. Also, according to de Koeijer et al (2011), the amine plant was designed and constructed based on the CO 2 capture technology provided by Aker Clean Carbon (ACC).…”

An amine plant campaign has been performed at the CO 2 Technology Centre Mongstad applying the aqueous 30 wt% and 40 wt% monoethanolamine (MEA) solvent systems for treatment of flue gas from a combined heat and power (CHP) plant. CHP flue gas flow rates were ranging from about 40.000 Sm 3 /h to 60.000 Sm 3 /h and the CO 2 content was about 3.5 vol%.Minimum specific reboiler duties (SRD) of respectively 4.0 MJ/kg CO 2 and 3.7 MJ/kg CO 2 were obtained for the aqueous 30 wt% MEA solvent system without and with the addition of anti-foam solution. A minimum SRD of 3.4 MJ/kg CO 2 was obtained for the aqueous 40 wt% MEA solvent system. Lower SRD and absorber liquid to gas (L/G) ratios were obtained with higher concentration MEA solvents.Increased absorber packing heights resulted in lower SRD. Variation in flue gas supply flow rates and corresponding variations in solvent flow rates, i.e. constant L/G ratios, did not yield any significant variations in SRD. Decreased flue gas supply temperatures resulted in lower SRD.For any future large scale post-combustion capture (PCC) amine plant, engineering aspects such as the flue gas supply temperature and instrumentation monitoring CO 2 content in the flue gas must be evaluated to avoid the chemical equilibrium pinch behavior. Engineering and environmental aspects related to the use of anti-foam solutions for future large scale PCC amine plants must also be considered.

“…The emission exhaust gases without CO2 is not a stream which DCCP installation adds to the general balance, but emission from the power plant, and cannot exceed the values determined in regulations. According to the regulation [16], emission standards for existing power plant, for which the building permit was established before 1st of July 1987, with nominal thermal power of Łaziska power plant -196 MW are (for hard coal combustion, with 6% O2): -250 mg/mu 3 for SO2, -25 mg/mu 3 [18], for the abovementioned instalation following design emissions were defined respectively 2.5 and 3.6 mg/mu 3 . It is expected, that the actual emissions will be 1.3 and 1.8 mg/mu 3 .…”

Abstract. The scope of this publication is a presentation of environmental issues and process risks connected with operation an installation for carbon capture from waste gas. General technological assumptions, typical for demonstration plant for carbon capture from waste gas (DCCP) with application of two different solutions -30% water solution of monoethanoloamine (MEA) and water solution with 30% AMP (2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol) and 10% piperazine have been described. The concept of DCCP installation was made for Łaziska Power Plant in Łaziska Górne owned by TAURON Wytwarzanie S.A. Main hazardous substances, typical for such installation, which can be dangerous for human life and health or for the environment have been presented. Pollution emission to the air, noise emission, waste water and solid waste management have been described. The environmental impact of the released substances has been stated. Reference to emission standards specified in regulations for considered substances has been done. Principles of risk analysis have been presented and main hazards in carbon dioxide absorption node and regeneration node have been evaluated.
