“…Gao et al [40] concluded that a higher mass flow rate increases the pipeline diameter, which in turn increases the pipeline capital cost. Some cost models based the investment cost equation only on CO2 flow rate and length of pipeline [48,49].…”

“…The pressure drop along a pipeline would be greater for longer pipelines than for shorter ones with similar characteristics. Gao et al [40] concluded that longer pipelines also require larger pipeline diameters thereby increasing the capital and levelised costs. It is therefore desirable to reduce the length of the pipeline as much as possible but this is constrained by the requirements for an optimum route.…”

“…The pipeline route thus controls the cost of pipeline transport as it affects the length, material, number and degree of bends and the number of booster stations to be installed [39,40]. Even the pipeline pressure drop is dependent among other factors on the length of the pipeline [41].…”

CO2 Pipeline Design: A Review

There is a need to accurately design pipelines to meet the expected increase in the construction of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) pipelines after the signing of the Paris Climate Agreement. CO 2 pipelines are usually designed with the assumption of a pure CO 2 fluid, even though it usually contains impurities, which affect the critical pressure, critical temperature, phase behaviour, and pressure and temperature changes in the pipeline. The design of CO 2 pipelines and the calculation of process parameters and fluid properties is not quite accurate with the assumption of pure CO 2 fluids. This paper reviews the design of rich CO 2 pipelines including pipeline route selection, length and right of way, fluid flow rates and velocities, need for single point-to-point or trunk pipelines, pipeline operating pressures and temperatures, pipeline wall thickness, fluid stream composition, fluid phases, and pipeline diameter and pressure drop calculations. The performance of a hypothetical pipeline was simulated using gPROMS (ver. 4.2.0) and Aspen HYSYS (ver.10.1) and the results of both software were compared to validate equations. Pressure loss due to fluid acceleration was ignored in the development of the diameter/pressure drop equations. Work is ongoing to incorporate fluid acceleration effect and the effects of impurities to improve the current models.

“…In the literature there are several models which describe the costs for CO 2 pipelines, divided into five categories: linear models [27], [23], [28], models based on the weight of the pipeline [26], [34], quadratic equations [35], [36], the CMU 180 model [29] and models based on flowrates [30], [7], [5]. All of these models are based on natural gas pipelines cost calculations and assume that the only pure CO 2 will be transported, i.e., the models do not account for the impact of impurities in the CO 2 stream.…”

“…It involves burning coal in nearly pure oxygen. The main advantage of the oxy-fuel CO 2 capture technique is that the flue gas is available at a high CO 2 concentration of approximately 75.7 mol%, thereby reducing compression costs and facilitating efficient CO 2 removal [90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99][100][101][102][103][104]. Although this technology appears promising if implemented for CO 2 capture in power plants, its possibility of implementation in the South African coal-fired power plants is quite slim because burning coal in pure oxygen instead of air on a large scale is very expensive.…”

Abstract:The global atmospheric concentration of anthropogenic gases, such as carbon dioxide, has increased substantially over the past few decades due to the high level of industrialization and urbanization that is occurring in developing countries, like South Africa. This has escalated the challenges of global warming. In South Africa, carbon capture and storage (CCS) from coal-fired power plants is attracting increasing attention as an alternative approach towards the mitigation of carbon dioxide emission. Therefore, innovative strategies and process optimization of CCS systems is essential in order to improve the process efficiency of this technology in South Africa. This review assesses the potential of CCS as an alternative approach to reducing the amount CO 2 emitted from the South African coal-fired power plants. It examines the various CCS processes that could be used for capturing the emitted CO 2 . Finally, it proposes the use of new adsorbents that could be incorporated towards the improvement of CCS technology.
