The present disclosure relates to systems and methods that provide a low pressure liquid CO.sub.2 stream. In particular, the present disclosure provides systems and methods wherein a high pressure CO.sub.2 stream, such as a recycle CO.sub.2 stream from a power production process using predominately CO.sub.2 as a working fluid, can be divided such that a portion thereof can be expanded and used as a cooling stream in a heat exchanger to cool the remaining portion of the high pressure CO.sub.2 stream, which can then be expanded to form a low pressure CO.sub.2 stream, which may be in a mixed form with CO.sub.2 vapor. The systems and methods can be utilized to provide net CO.sub.2 from combustion in a liquid form that is easily transportable.

Apparatuses for generating carbon particles and exhaust gas used by gas turbine systems are disclosed. One apparatus may include a decarbonization component combusting or reacting a mixture of a fuel and a mixing gas to generate the carbon particles and the exhaust gas and an exhaust conduit to receive the exhaust gas generated by the decarbonization component. The apparatus may also include a mixing duct in fluid communication with the exhaust conduit and the gas turbine system. The mixing duct may receive the exhaust gas and provide the exhaust gas to the gas turbine system to be used to produce a working fluid within the gas turbine system. The apparatus may further include a carbon particle collection component for receiving and storing the generated carbon particles.

Hydrogen-fueled gas turbine power system comprising a compressor (22), a combustor (24) and a turbine (26) as well as a fuel supply device (10). The fuel supply device (10) has the form of a hydrogen gas producing reactor system with at least one reactor (12) based on sorption enhanced steam methane reforming (SE-SMR) and/or sorption enhanced water gas shift (SE-WGS) of syngas The reactor (12) is connected in a closed loop with a regenerator (14) for circulating and regenerating a CO.sub.2 absorber between the reactor (12) and the regenerator (14). Additionally, there is a closed heat exchange loop (21) between the regenerator (14) of the hydrogen gas producing reactor system (10) and the downstream end of the combustor (24) or the upstream end of the turbine (26). A method of its use is also contemplated.

Shaft stability is enhanced and reliability is improved. In a gas turbine power generation system of an embodiment, a pressurizing unit, a rotation control unit, a diaphragm coupling, a turbine, and a generator are disposed to line up sequentially on the same shaft. A thrust bearing is provided between the turbine and the generator. The turbine is configured such that a working medium flows from the diaphragm coupling side toward the rotation control unit side.

In a system for producing power and capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) at an offshore site, separator units separate a fluid produced from an offshore vessel in fluid communication with a reservoir into water, oil, and gas. The gas is sent to oxy-firing gas turbine generator units. Air separation units separate an air into nitrogen and oxygen. The oxygen is sent to the oxy-firing gas turbine generator units. Gas compression units compress an exhaust gas from the oxy-firing gas turbine generator units. Dehydration units dehydrate the compressed exhaust gas, and a portion of the dehydrated compressed exhaust gas is recycled back to the oxy-firing gas turbine generator units. Gas pumps inject a remaining portion of the dehydrated compressed exhaust gas into the reservoir. Additionally, the oxy-firing gas turbine generator units generates electricity with the oxygen, the gas, and the portion of the dehydrated compressed exhaust gas.

An enhanced oil recovery method in which carbon dioxide is injected into a well to pressure the well or add lift a production flow from the well recaptures the injected carbon dioxide for reinjection into the well for lift or into another well in a group of for pressuring the well or adding lift to the production flow from the well. Geothermal energy in the production stream can be converted to electrical power for use in the recapturing of the carbon dioxide or other operations at the well site.
