This paper proposes a novel CO 2 capture technology from the integration of partial oxycombustion and the Calcium Looping capture process based on the multicycle carbonation/calcination of limestone derived CaO. The concentration of CO 2 in the carbonator reactor is increased by means of partial oxy-combustion, which enhances the multicycle CaO conversion according to Thermogravimetric analysis results carried out in our work, thus improving the CO 2 capture efficiency. On the other hand, energy consumption for partial oxycombustion is substantially reduced as compared to total oxy-combustion. All in all, process simulations indicate that the integration of both processes has potential advantages mainly regarding power plant flexibility whereas the overall energy penalty is not increased. Thus, the resulting energy consumption per kilogram of CO 2 avoided is kept below 4 MJ/kg CO 2 , which remains below the typical values reported for total oxy-combustion and amine based CO 2 capture systems whereas CO 2 capture efficiency is enhanced in comparison with the Calcium Looping process.
