Disclosed is a hybrid power generation facility. The hybrid power generation facility includes a gas turbine including a compressor configured to compress air introduced from an outside, a combustor configured to mix the compressed air with fuel and to combust the air and fuel mixture, and a turbine configured to produce power with first combustion gas discharged from the combustor, a boiler including a combustion chamber and a burner installed in the combustion chamber and into which the first combustion gas discharged from the turbine of the gas turbine is introduced, a steam turbine through which steam generated in the combustion chamber passes, a first GT (gas turbine) pipeline connected between the turbine of the gas turbine and the burner, a first air pipeline connected to the first GT pipeline to supply oxygen to the burner, a first oxygen sensor installed at an inlet of the burner to measure an oxygen concentration of a fluid flowing into the burner, and a first GT damper installed in the first GT pipeline to control a flow rate of the fluid flowing through the first GT pipeline according to the oxygen concentration measured by the first oxygen sensor.

A plant and a method for the production of hydrogen and bicarbonate. The plant includes a gasifier, a reformer, a direct contact exchanger and an apparatus for the production of bicarbonate. The plant is suitable for receiving fuel, oxygen, water, carbonate, brine at the inlet and for producing hydrogen, bicarbonate and calcium chloride at the outlet. The plant uses a self-cleaning direct contact heat exchanger to cool the syngas downstream of the reformer and to produce the superheated steam that feeds the gasifier: this heat exchanger allows the production of hydrogen at low costs and in modular plants.

A chemical looping combustion (CLC) based power generation, particularly using liquid fuel, ensures substantially complete fuel combustion and provides electrical efficiency without exposing metal oxide based oxygen carrier to high temperature redox process. An integrated fuel gasification (reforming)-CLC-followed by power generation model is provided involving (i) a gasification island, (ii) CLC island, (iii) heat recovery unit, and (iv) power generation system. To improve electrical efficiency, a fraction of the gasified fuel may be directly fed, or bypass the CLC, to a combustor upstream of one or more gas turbines. This splitting approach ensures higher temperature (efficiency) in the gas turbine inlet. The inert mass ratio, air flow rate to the oxidation reactor, and pressure of the system may be tailored to affect the performance of the integrated CLC system and process.

A method for gasifying carbon-containing materials in which the material for gasification and oxygen, usually in the form of air, are supplied to a gas generator where the gasification takes place in a fixed bed reactor. The product gas is drawn off via a product gas line and introduced into a hot gas filter. A filter, preferably provided with filter candles, removes solids such as particles not yet gasified, ash and foreign bodies, while clean gas passes through and is taken off via a clean gas line. An outlet is provided in the bottom region of the hot gas filter to remove residual solids. The hot gas filter is supplied through a line with oxygen, preferably in the form of air, in its middle height region, between the filter bottom and the outlet.

A heat recovery steam generator includes an exhaust-gas channel with an economizer heating surface and evaporator heating surface. The heating surfaces are connected to one another such that, on a feed water side, the economizer heating surface is upstream of the evaporator heating surface. A water/steam separator is arranged on the feed water side downstream of the evaporator heating surface. An excess pipe length system is outside the exhaust-gas channel and is designed in such a way that, after a complete filling of the economizer heating surface, feed water, in a riser of the excess pipe length system, reaches an overflow and thus passes into the evaporator heating surface via a down pipe. A vent line branches off the overflow of the excess pipe length system. A first filling line and a first valve are arranged between an economizer filling outlet and the evaporator outlet of the evaporator heating surface.

Provided is a boiler plant including a carbon dioxide capture system. The carbon dioxide capture system has an absorbing-liquid regeneration device and an absorber. The absorbing-liquid regeneration device includes a regenerator, a first circulation line in which the absorbing liquid is taken out from the regenerator and is returned to the regenerator, and a second circulation line in which the absorbing liquid is taken out from the regenerator and is returned to the regenerator, a heat exchanger, a heater, and a switcher. The heat exchanger heats the absorbing liquid by exchanging heat between the absorbing liquid flowing through the first circulation line and steam from the boiler. The heater heats the absorbing liquid flowing in the second circulation line. The switcher switches between a first heating state in which the absorbing liquid flows in the first circulation line and a second heating state in which the absorbing liquid flows in the second circulation line.

A compact cooling and boosting gas turbine system provides combined cooling, heating, and electrical power with high energy efficiency. The system has a pressure booster and a turbo-compressor. The pressure booster includes a fuel inlet, a fuel outlet, and a piston, and is in fluid communication with a gas turbine engine. The pressure booster also includes a coolant inlet, a coolant chamber, and a coolant outlet, and is in fluid communication with a closed pressurized coolant flow. The turbo-compressor includes a compressor and a turbine, and is in fluid communication with a water input flow and with the closed pressurized coolant flow. A coolant flow control valve controls the closed pressurized coolant flow. The system is configured to provide a cold water flow for a first position of the flow control valve and to provide a hot water flow for a second position of the flow control valve.
