EXHAUST GAS PROCESSING EQUIPMENT AND GAS TURBINE PLANT

This exhaust gas processing equipment is provided with an exhaust line through which exhaust gas discharged from a boiler circulates, a carbon dioxide recovering device for recovering carbon dioxide included in the exhaust gas, and an exhaust gas heating device provided downstream of the carbon dioxide recovering device to heat the exhaust gas. The carbon dioxide recovering device includes a first medium line through which a first medium circulates, and a second medium line through which a second medium higher in temperature than the first medium circulates. The exhaust gas heating device includes a first heating unit for heating the exhaust gas by means of heat exchange with the first medium, and a second heating unit for heating the exhaust gas passing through the first heating unit even more by heat exchange with the second medium.

HYDROCARBON RECLAMATOR
20230020768 · 2023-01-19 ·

A hydrocarbon reclamator consists of a closed chamber having an exhaust inlet port, a hydrogen inlet port, and a hydrocarbon outlet port. A magnetic flux is generated at the base of the closed chamber and a rotor is suspended by the magnetic flux within the closed chamber. The rotor is formed as a Tesla turbine having axially spaced discs concentrically mounted on a central shaft, a catalyst is formed on surfaces of the discs, and flow holes are formed through the discs. Venturi forces direct gas to release kinetic energy against the discs, so that hydrogen entering the chamber combines with carbon entering the chamber to form a hydrocarbon that exits the chamber via the hydrocarbon outlet port.

Control schemes for thermal management of power production systems and methods

The present invention relates to systems and methods for controlling a power production plant and optionally providing a one or more product streams for an end use thereof. Control of a power production plant specifically can include executing one or more functions effective for adjusting a heat profile of a heat exchange unit (HEU) operating with a plurality of streams passing therethrough. This can include implementing a control function that alters a flow of one or more of the plurality of streams by adding flow to or withdrawing flow one or more of the plurality of streams at an intermediate temperature range within the HEU at a point that is positioned between a first end and a second end of the HEU.
