A method and a plant for capturing CO2 from an incoming flue gas. The flue gas can be exhaust gas from coal and gas fired power plants, cement factories or refineries. The incoming exhaust gas is cooled, mixed with air and compressed, and thereafter introduced into a combustion chamber together with gas and/or liquid fuel. Part of the combustion is achieved by separate burners with cooling/combustion air feed with a volume equal to the volume of CO2 captured. Said burners will elevate the temperature in the combustion chamber allowing combustion of exhaust gas with low oxygen content. CO2 is captured at high partial pressure before expansion by the gas turbine to produce power and generate steam in the heat recovery unit. The gas turbine will operate with high efficiency close to design parameters with respect to inlet temperature, pressure and flow.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems and methods of removing carbon dioxide from a gaseous stream using magnesium hydroxide and then regenerating the magnesium hydroxide. In some embodiments, the systems and methods can further comprise using the waste heat from one or more gas streams to provide some or all of the heat needed to drive the reactions. In some embodiments, magnesium chloride is primarily in the form of magnesium chloride dihydrate and is fed to a decomposition reactor to generate magnesium hydroxychloride, which is in turn fed to a second decomposition reactor to generate magnesium hydroxide.

A method for desulfurizing and decarbonizing a flue gas includes: feeding a boiler flue gas after denitrating and dedusting to a water cooler; cooling the boiler flue gas in the water cooler to a temperature near room temperature, and discharging condensed water; feeding a wet flue gas to a washing tower; washing and cooling the wet flue gas with a washing liquid to separate H.sub.2O, SO.sub.2 and CO.sub.2 in a solid form from the flue gas; feeding a solid-liquid mixed slurry from a bottom of the washing tower to a solid-liquid separator to separate solid H.sub.2O, SO.sub.2 and CO.sub.2 from the washing liquid; feeding the solid H.sub.2O, SO.sub.2 and CO.sub.2 to a rectification separation column; separating CO.sub.2 from SO.sub.2 and H.sub.2O by a reboiler at a bottom of the rectification separation column; and discharging CO.sub.2, SO.sub.2 and H.sub.2O.

A system for treating exhaust gas generated by combustion of biomass comprises a frame, a first cyclonic separation stage supported on the frame and comprising a plurality of parallel gas cyclones in fluidic communication with an inlet receiving the exhaust gas for removing from the exhaust gas particulate matter exceeding a first threshold size, and a second bag filtration stage supported on the frame and comprising a plurality of serially-communicated baghouses each comprising a plurality of bag filters therein for removing, from the partially treated exhaust gas received from the first cyclonic separation stage, particulate matter exceeding a second threshold size that is smaller than the first size which was passed through the first treatment stage. The gas cyclones of the first stage are arranged in a laterally extending row across the frame and the baghouses are arranged in a longitudinally extending row across the frame.

The present invention discloses an industrial solid waste incinerator and flue gas treatment apparatus, comprising a water-cooled feed hopper, a water-cooled grate and a chamber which are connected in sequence. A front arch, a rear arch and side walls which are formed of membrane water-cooled walls, are provided between the water-cooled grate and the chamber, and a dechlorination tower is arranged behind the chamber. Two sets of rear secondary air pipes, which comprise an upper set of rear secondary air pipes and a lower set of rear secondary air pipes, are arranged on the rear arch, and a dry desulfurization device is arranged between the two sets of rear secondary air pipes, so that the reaction medium and the flue gas are sufficiently disturbed and mixed, and stroke is extended.

A hybrid power plant system including a gas turbine system and a coal fired boiler system inputs high oxygen content gas turbine flue gas into the coal fired boiler system, said gas turbine flue gas also including carbon dioxide that is desired to be captured rather than released to the atmosphere. Oxygen in the gas turbine flue gas is consumed in the coal fired boiler, resulting in relatively low oxygen content boiler flue gas stream to be processed. Carbon dioxide, originally included in the gas turbine flue gas, is subsequently captured by the post combustion capture apparatus of the coal fired boiler system, along with carbon diode generated by the burning of coal. The supply of gas turbine flue gas which is input into the boiler system is controlled using dampers and/or fans by a controller based on an oxygen sensor measurement and one or more flow rate measurements.

A CO2 capture system includes an intake for CO2-rich exhaust gas to a compressor and one or more outlets for compressed, first CO2-rich gas to a manifold to a shell enclosing parts of a combustion chamber. The combustion chamber has burners to burn fuel and compressed air from a fuel line and an air supply pipe, to form a second, CO2 rich gas.

The wall in the combustion chamber has slits to let in the compressed CO2-rich gas to mix with and cool the other CO2-rich gas formed in the combustion chamber of a third CO2-rich exhaust gas. A heat exchanger operates under high pressure and heat exchanges the third, hot CO2-rich exhaust gas from the combustion chamber with returning CO2-poor exhaust gas from a CO2 extraction plant. The returned, heated CO2-poor exhaust gas is led back to an expander driving the compressor and the CO2 extraction plant.

A method for the control of nitrogen oxides content in the combustion fumes of a thermal power plant is disclosed; the method comprises the on-site production of ammonia by the steps of: electrolysis of water as a source of hydrogen; separation of air as a source of nitrogen, formation of a make-up gas and synthesis of ammonia in a suitable synthesis loop; said on-site produced ammonia, or a solution thereof, is used for a process of reduction of nitrogen oxides in the combustion fumes.
