Selective Exhaust Gas Recycle with Membranes for CO2 Capture from Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plants

Abstract: Low natural gas prices are contributing to rapid growth in natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) power production in the United States. CO2 capture from the exhaust gas of these plants is complicated by the relatively low CO2 concentration in this flue gas (3%–4%). A membrane process using incoming combustion air as a sweep stream in a selective exhaust gas recycle configuration can be used to preconcentrate CO2 from 4% to 15%–20% with almost no energy input. Depending on the process configuration, the selective r… Show more

“…However, the EGR ratio is limited to 35-40% in practice (Li et al, 2011 andMerkel et al, 2013) as increased an increasing EGR ratio reduces the level of oxygen that is available in the air to the combustion chamber. The O 2 concentration in the inlet air to the combustion chamber should be greater than 16% to prevent the production of significant quantities of unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide (Li et al, 2011).…”

“…New process alternatives are currently being investigated to overcome these limitations and optimize CO2 capture processes in gas-fired power plants. This is the case of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) [5][6][7][8][9] and selective exhaust gas recirculation (S-EGR) [10] processes. The EGR process is shown in Figure 1.…”

“…To overcome this limitation and achieve a further increase in the CO2 content of the flue gas, Merkel et al. [10] proposed the application of selective exhaust gas recirculation. The idea behind the S-EGR concept is to selectively recirculate CO2 upstream of the post-combustion CO2 capture process, from the gas turbine exhaust back through the inlet of the engine, thus largely increasing the CO2 concentration of the flue gas sent to the capture plant.…”
