DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0032] The present inventors have focused on a matter that, according to an exhaust gas treatment device of related art, in order to efficiently remove nitrogen oxide in the combustion exhaust gas, a temperature of the combustion exhaust gas introduced into a nitrogen oxide removal unit needs to be kept at high temperature (for example, 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower), while the facility cost increases in a case where the nitrogen oxide removal unit is provided on a front stage of each of waste heat recovery units in a plurality of exhaust gas flow paths. Then, the present inventors have conceived an idea of dividing and causing the combustion exhaust gas discharged from the power generation facility to flow as a first combustion exhaust gas from which the waste heat has been recovered by the waste heat recovery unit and a second combustion exhaust gas from which the waste heat has not been recovered and of which a temperature is higher than the first combustion exhaust gas, and thereafter, integrating the first combustion exhaust gas and the second combustion exhaust gas into an integrated combustion exhaust gas to be introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit. From this idea, the present inventors have found that it is possible to make a gas temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas a temperature suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, reduce an accumulation amount of a nitrogen oxide-derived component in a CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid in a CO.sub.2 recovery unit, and reduce increase in the facility cost, and completed the present invention.

[0033] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail while referring to the attached drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments and the present invention can be carried out by applying suitable modifications.

First Embodiment

[0034] FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating an example of an exhaust gas treatment device 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the exhaust gas treatment device 1 according to the present embodiment recovers, by a waste heat recovery boiler 11 and an integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, waste heat of a combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11 discharged from a power generation facility 10 generating the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11, and thereafter, recovers CO.sub.2 contained in an integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 by a CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. The exhaust gas treatment device 1 includes the power generation facility 10 discharging the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11, the waste heat recovery boiler 11 provided on a downstream stage of the power generation facility 10 in a flow direction of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11, the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 provided on a downstream stage of the waste heat recovery boiler 11, the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 provided on a downstream stage of the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and a CO.sub.2 compression portion 14 provided on a downstream stage of the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. A stack 15 discharging a part of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11 is provided between the waste heat recovery boiler 11 and the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12.

[0035] FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the power generation facility 10 according to the present embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the power generation facility 10 is a single-shaft type combined power generation facility (gas turbine combined cycle) in which a gas turbine 210, a steam turbine 220, and a generator 230 are configured in one shaft. The gas turbine 210 includes a compressor 211 that compresses an air A, a combustor 212 that combusts a fuel F with the air A compressed by the compressor 211, and a turbine 213 that is rotationally driven by a combustion gas generated in the combustor 212. The compressor 211 is connected to the turbine 213 via a turbine shaft 240.

[0036] The steam turbine 220 includes a low-pressure steam turbine 221 that is rotationally driven by a low-pressure steam, and a medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 222 in which a mid-pressure steam turbine 222A that is rotationally driven by a medium-pressure steam is connected to a high-pressure steam turbine 222B that is rotationally driven by a high-pressure steam. The low-pressure steam turbine 221 and the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 222 are connected to the generator 230 and the gas turbine 210 via the turbine shaft 240. The generator 230 generates power by the rotational drive of the gas turbine 210 and the steam turbine 220 via the turbine shaft 240.

[0037] The power generation facility 10 supplies the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11 generated by the power generation to the waste heat recovery boiler 11 via an exhaust gas line L.sub.11. The exhaust gas line L.sub.11 is provided with a branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B between a front stage and a downstream stage of the waste heat recovery boiler 11 in the exhaust gas line L.sub.11, the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B branching from the exhaust gas line L.sub.11. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the exhaust gas line L.sub.11 is branched into a main exhaust gas line (first exhaust gas flow path) L.sub.11A and a branch exhaust gas line (second exhaust gas flow path) L.sub.11B between the front stage and the downstream stage of the waste heat recovery boiler 11.

[0038] The exhaust gas line L.sub.11 is provided with a flow rate control valve V.sub.11A, the waste heat recovery boiler 11, and the stack 15 in this order. The flow rate control valve V.sub.11A adjusts a flow rate of the combustion exhaust gas (first combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11A flowing through the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A. The waste heat recovery boiler 11 recovers the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A flowing through the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A, and supplies the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A from which the waste heat has been recovered to the stack 15. The stack 15 discharges a part of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A to outside as needed, and supplies the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12. The branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B is provided with a flow rate control valve V.sub.11B. The flow rate control valve Vim adjusts a flow rate of the combustion exhaust gas (second combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11B flowing through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B. The branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B supplies a part or all of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11 to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 without using the waste heat recovery boiler 11 and the stack 15.

[0039] The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is supplied with the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 in which the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A flowing through the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A and the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B flowing through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B are integrated. The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 recovers the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21. The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is provided with, within thereof, a nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 that reduces and removes nitrogen oxide such as nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen dioxide contained in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21. In this way, by providing the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 within the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, the exhaust gas treatment device 1 can be reduced in size. Note that the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 may not be necessarily provided in an integrated form with the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and may be provided outside the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12.

[0040] The nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 includes a reducing agent supply unit 121 that injects a reducing agent into the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 to reduce nitrogen oxide, and a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) unit 122 that is provided on a downstream stage of the reducing agent supply unit 121 and filled with a DeNOx catalyst selectively reducing nitrogen oxide. The reducing agent in the reducing agent supply unit 121 is not specifically limited so long as it can decompose and remove nitrogen oxide such as nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen dioxide. The DeNOx catalyst in the selective catalytic reduction unit 122 is not specifically limited so long as it can decompose and remove nitrogen oxide such as nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen dioxide.

[0041] The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, in the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120, supplies the reducing agent from the reducing agent supply unit 121 to the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, and performs a decomposition treatment by the selective catalytic reduction unit 122 on nitrogen oxide supplied with the reducing agent. The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 recovers the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 of which nitrogen oxide has undergone the decomposition treatment, and supplies the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 from which the waste heat has been recovered to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13.

[0042] The CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 includes a CO.sub.2 absorbing tower that recovers carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 by the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid, and a CO.sub.2 regeneration tower that heats the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid having absorbed CO.sub.2 to release CO.sub.2 from the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid. A CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid is not specifically limited so long as it can recover carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, and an amine series absorbing liquid can be used, for example. The CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 discharges, to outside, the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 from which CO.sub.2 has been recovered, and supplies the recovered CO.sub.2 to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14. The CO.sub.2 compression portion 14 compresses and discharges CO.sub.2 supplied from the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13.

[0043] The exhaust gas treatment device 1 includes a first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 that measures a gas flow rate and temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, a second exhaust gas measurement unit 17 that measures a gas flow rate and nitrogen oxide concentration of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13, and a control unit 18 that controls a supply amount of a fuel F supplied to the power generation facility 10 and a supply amount of the reducing agent supplied from the reducing agent supply unit 121 to the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21. The control unit 18 adjusts opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11A and V.sub.11B, and the supply amount of the fuel supplied to the power generation facility 10, based on the gas flow rate and temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.1 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16. The control unit 18 controls the supply amount of the fuel F supplied to the power generation facility 10, based on the gas flow rate and nitrogen oxide concentration of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.1 measured by the second exhaust gas measurement unit 17. The measurement of the gas flow rate and the temperature by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16, and the measurement of the gas flow rate and the nitrogen oxide concentration by the second exhaust gas measurement unit 17 are performed using a publicly known method of related art.

[0044] The control unit 18 adjusts the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11A and V.sub.11B, and the supply amount of the fuel F supplied to the power generation facility 10 to control such that the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 is 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower. By such control, the exhaust gas treatment device 1 can make the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 in the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 a temperature suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, so that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be further more efficiently decomposed and removed.

[0045] In a case where the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 is lower than 300° C., the control unit 18 controls at least one of the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11A to be decreased and the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11B to be increased, so that a ratio, in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B having flowed through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B is increased with respect to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A having flowed through the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A. This can increase the ratio of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B relative to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A, where the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A is decreased because the heat thereof has been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11 and the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B is high because the heat thereof has not been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11, and therefore, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 increases. The control unit 18 may maintain the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11A and V.sub.11B to increase the feed amount of the fuel F supplied to the power generation facility 10 so as to increase the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21.

[0046] In a case where the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 exceeds 400° C., the control unit 18 controls at least one of the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11A to be increased and the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11B to be decreased, so that the ratio, in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B flowing through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B is decreased with respect to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A flowing through the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A. This can decrease the ratio of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B relative to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A, where the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A is decreased because the heat thereof has been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11, and where the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B is high because the heat thereof has not been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11, and therefore, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 decreases. The control unit 18 may maintain the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11A and V.sub.11B to decrease the feed amount of the fuel F supplied to the power generation facility 10 so as to decrease the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21.

[0047] The control unit 18 adjusts the supply amount of the reducing agent supplied from the reducing agent supply unit 121, and controls the nitrogen oxide concentration in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the second exhaust gas measurement unit 17 to be a predetermined value or less. In case that the nitrogen oxide concentration in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the second exhaust gas measurement unit 17 exceeds the predetermined value, the control unit 18 increases the supply amount of the reducing agent from the reducing agent supply unit 121. In case that the nitrogen oxide concentration in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the second exhaust gas measurement unit 17 is less than the predetermined value, the control unit 18 maintains or decreases the supply amount of the reducing agent from the reducing agent supply unit 121. By such control, the exhaust gas treatment device 1 can control the nitrogen oxide concentration in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 to be the predetermined value or less, so that it is possible to efficiently reduce the nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 after CO.sub.2 discharged from the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 is recovered.

[0048] Next, the overall operation of the exhaust gas treatment device 1 according to the present embodiment will be described. The combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11 discharged from the power generation facility 10 via the exhaust gas line L.sub.11 is branched into the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A flowing through the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A and the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B flowing through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B. The combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A flowing through the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A, with the waste heat of the gas G.sub.11A being recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11 to decrease the temperature, after a part of the gas G.sub.11A is discharged from the stack 15, is integrated in the exhaust gas line L.sub.11 with the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B flowing through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B. The combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B flowing through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B, in a state of a high temperature without via the waste heat recovery boiler 11, is integrated in the exhaust gas line L.sub.H with the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A flowing through the main exhaust gas line.

[0049] The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 in which the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A and the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B are integrated is supplied via the exhaust gas line L.sub.11 to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12. Here, the control unit 18 controls valve opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11A and V.sub.11B and the supply amount of the fuel F supplied to the power generation facility 10 as needed, such that the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 is a predetermined temperature (for example, 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower). The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is supplied with the reducing agent by the reducing agent supply unit 121 in the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120, and, after nitrogen oxide is decomposed and removed by selective catalytic reduction unit 122, is supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. Here, the control unit 18 controls an amount of the reducing agent supplied from the reducing agent supply unit 121 to the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 as needed, such that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 is a predetermined value or less. The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13, after CO.sub.2 is recovered by the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid, is discharged out of the exhaust gas treatment device 1. CO.sub.2 in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 recovered by the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid is heated to be released from the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid, and thereafter, supplied to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14, and compressed and discharged.

[0050] As described above, according to the above-described embodiment, the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11 discharged from the power generation facility 10 is branched into the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A and the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B, and thereafter, the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A is recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11 provided to the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A, while the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A after the waste heat is recovered is integrated with the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B flowing through the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B in a state of high temperature that the temperature is higher than the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A, to be the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21. This can adjust the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 to a range suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, such that nitrogen oxide in the combustion exhaust gas discharged from the power generation facility 10 can be efficiently removed. Since the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be adjusted to be in a range suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide by simply providing the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B, the increase in the facility cost can be also reduced. Therefore, the exhaust gas treatment device 1 can be achieved in which nitrogen oxide can be efficiently removed and the increase in the facility cost can be reduced.

[0051] The embodiment described above describes the configuration in which the waste heat recovery boiler 11 is provided to the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A, but the waste heat recovery boiler 11 may be configured to be provided to the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B, or the waste heat recovery boiler 11 may be configured to be provided to both the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A and the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B. In a case where waste heat recovery boiler 11 is provided to both the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A and the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B, the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be adjusted to a desired temperature by differentiating a recovery amount of the waste heat from the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11A in the waste heat recovery boiler 11 on the main exhaust gas line L.sub.11A from a recovery amount of the waste heat from the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11B in the waste heat recovery boiler 11 on the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B. The power generation facility 10 may be an existing power generation facility, or a newly built power generation facility. In a case where the power generation facility 10 is an existing power generation facility, the configuration of the exhaust gas treatment device 1 according to the above-described embodiment can be obtained by simply providing the branch exhaust gas line L.sub.11B to an existing exhaust gas line.

[0052] The configuration of the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 in the embodiment described above can be adequately modified. FIG. 3 is a schematic view illustrating another example of the exhaust gas treatment device 1 according to the above-described embodiment. In an exhaust gas treatment device 2 illustrated in FIG. 3, the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 includes a steam generation unit 123 provided on a downstream stage of the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120. The steam generation unit 123 includes a turbine-driving steam generation unit 123A provided on a downstream stage of the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 in the flow direction of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, and a CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam generation unit 123B provided on a downstream stage of the turbine-driving steam generation unit 123A.

[0053] The turbine-driving steam generation unit 123A recovers the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 from which nitrogen oxide has been removed to generate a turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 that is a low-pressure steam for driving the low-pressure steam turbine 19. The turbine-driving steam generation unit 123A supplies the generated turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 to the low-pressure steam turbine 19 via a steam supply line L.sub.12. The low-pressure steam turbine 19 may be a turbine provided outside the exhaust gas treatment device 2, or the low-pressure steam turbine 221 in the power generation facility 10 illustrated in FIG. 2. The low-pressure steam turbine 19 is rotationally driven by the turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 to generate power by a generator (not illustrated in the drawing). This allows the exhaust gas treatment device 2 to generate power by using the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 recovered by the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and therefore, the steam required for driving the low-pressure steam turbine 19 can be reduced. The low-pressure steam turbine 19 supplies the turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 after driving the turbine as a CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid-regenerating steam S.sub.2 to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 via a steam discharge line L.sub.13.

[0054] The CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam generation unit 123B recovers the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 from which nitrogen oxide has been removed to generate a CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 that is a low-pressure steam for driving the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14. The CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam generation unit 123B supplies the generated CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14 via a steam supply line L.sub.14. The CO.sub.2 compression portion 14 drives the CO.sub.2 compression portion by using the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 to compress CO.sub.2. This allows the exhaust gas treatment device 2 to compress CO.sub.2 by using the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 recovered by the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and therefore, the steam required for compressing CO.sub.2 can be reduced. The CO.sub.2 compression portion 14 supplies the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 after driving the CO.sub.2 compression portion as a CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid-regenerating steam S.sub.4 to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 via a steam discharge line L.sub.15.

[0055] The CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 supplies the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid-regenerating steams S.sub.2 and S.sub.4 to a reboiler in the CO.sub.2 regeneration tower to release CO.sub.2 from the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid having recovered CO.sub.2. This allows the exhaust gas treatment device 2 to reduce the steam used for the reboiler in the CO.sub.2 absorbing tower. The CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 supplies a condensed water W in which condensed is the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid-regenerating steams S.sub.2 and S.sub.4 having been used for the reboiler in the CO.sub.2 absorbing tower to the turbine-driving steam generation unit 123A and the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam generation unit 123B in the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12.

[0056] The control unit 18 controls a supply amount of the fuel F supplied to the combustor 212 in the power generation facility 10, a supply amount of the turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 supplied to the low-pressure steam turbine 19, and a supply amount of the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 supplied to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14, based on the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 and introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120. In a case where the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 is less than a predetermined range, the control unit 18 increases the fuel F supplied to the combustor 212 in the power generation facility 10. In a case where the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 exceeds the predetermined range, the control unit 18 decreases the fuel F supplied to the combustor 212 in the power generation facility 10. In a case where the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 is less than the predetermined range, the control unit 18 decreases an opening amount of at least one of a flow rate control valve V.sub.12 provided to the steam supply line L.sub.12 and a flow rate control valve V.sub.14 provided to the steam supply line L.sub.14 to decrease the supply amount of at least one of the turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 supplied to the low-pressure steam turbine 19 and the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 supplied to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14. In a case where the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 exceeds the predetermined range, the control unit 18 increases the opening amount of at least one of the flow rate control valve V.sub.12 provided to the steam supply line L.sub.12 and the flow rate control valve V.sub.14 provided to the steam supply line L.sub.14 to increase the supply amount of at least one of the turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 supplied to the low-pressure steam turbine 19 and the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 supplied to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14. By such control, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 can be controlled to be in a range suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, so that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be efficiently reduced.

[0057] As described above, according to the exhaust gas treatment device 2 in the above-described embodiment, by virtue of the turbine-driving steam generation unit 123A and the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam generation unit 123B in the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, the turbine-driving steam S.sub.1 required for rotationally driving the low-pressure steam turbine 19, the CO.sub.2 compression portion-driving steam S.sub.3 required for compressing CO.sub.2, and the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid-regenerating steams S.sub.2 and S.sub.4 required for regenerating the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid can be acquired, so that an amount of the steam used in the whole exhaust gas treatment device 2 can be reduced.

[0058] FIG. 4 is a schematic view illustrating another example of the exhaust gas treatment device 2 according to the above-described embodiment. In an exhaust gas treatment device 3 illustrated in FIG. 4, the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 includes, besides the steam generation unit 123 illustrated in FIG. 3, a heating unit 124 provided on a front stage of the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 where is an introducing part of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, and a steam generation unit 125 provided between the heating unit 124 and the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120. The steam generation unit 125 is provided on a downstream stage of the heating unit 124, and includes a turbine-driving steam generation unit 125A that generates a high-pressure steam for rotationally driving a high-pressure steam turbine 20A of a medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20, and a turbine-driving steam generation unit 125B that is provided on a downstream stage of the turbine-driving steam generation unit 125A and generates a medium-pressure steam for rotationally driving a mid-pressure steam turbine 20B of the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20.

[0059] The heating unit 124 heats the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 (for example, 500° C. or higher and 600° C. or lower), and supplies the heated integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 to the turbine-driving steam generation unit 125A in the steam generation unit 125. The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be heated by use of a publicly known general heating device. In a case where the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is high, the heating unit 124 may not be necessarily provided.

[0060] The turbine-driving steam generation unit 125A recovers the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 heated by the heating unit 124 to generate a turbine-driving steam S.sub.5 that is a high-pressure steam for driving the high-pressure steam turbine 20A of the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20. The turbine-driving steam generation unit 125A supplies the generated turbine-driving steam S.sub.5 to the high-pressure steam turbine 20A via a steam supply line L.sub.16. The medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20 may be that provided outside the exhaust gas treatment device 3, or the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 222 in the power generation facility 10 illustrated in FIG. 2. The high-pressure steam turbine 20A is rotationally driven by the turbine-driving steam S.sub.5 to generate power by a generator (not illustrated in the drawing). This allows the exhaust gas treatment device 3 to generate power by using the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 recovered by the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and therefore, the steam required for driving the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20 can be reduced. The high-pressure steam turbine 20A supplies a turbine-driving steam S.sub.6 after driving the turbine to the turbine-driving steam generation unit 125A via a steam discharge line L.sub.17.

[0061] The turbine-driving steam generation unit 125B recovers the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 heated by the heating unit 124 to generate a turbine-driving steam S.sub.7 that is a medium-pressure steam for driving the mid-pressure steam turbine 20B of the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20. The turbine-driving steam generation unit 125B supplies the generated turbine-driving steam S.sub.7 to the mid-pressure steam turbine 20B via a steam supply line Lis. The mid-pressure steam turbine 20B is rotationally driven by the turbine-driving steam S.sub.7 to generate power by a generator (not illustrated in the drawing). This allows the exhaust gas treatment device 3 to generate power by using the waste heat of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 recovered by the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and therefore, the steam required for driving the mid-pressure steam turbine 20B can be reduced. The mid-pressure steam turbine 20B supplies a turbine-driving steam S.sub.8 after driving the turbine to the turbine-driving steam generation unit 125B via a steam discharge line L.sub.19.

[0062] The control unit 18 controls supply amounts of the turbine-driving steams S.sub.5 and S.sub.7 supplied to the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20, based on the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 and introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120. In a case where the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 is less than a predetermined range, the control unit 18 decreases an opening amount of at least one of a flow rate control valve V.sub.16 provided to the steam supply line Lib and a flow rate control valve V.sub.18 provided to the steam supply line Lis to decrease at least one of the turbine-driving steams S.sub.5 and S.sub.7 supplied to the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20. In a case where the temperature and gas flow rate of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 exceeds a predetermined range, the control unit 18 increases the opening amount of at least one of the flow rate control valve V.sub.16 provided to the steam supply line L.sub.16 and the flow rate control valve V.sub.18 provided to the steam supply line L.sub.18 to increase at least one of the supply amounts of the turbine-driving steams S.sub.5 and S.sub.7 supplied to the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20. By such control, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 can be controlled to be in a range suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, so that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be efficiently reduced.

[0063] As described above, according to the exhaust gas treatment device 3 in the above-described embodiment, by virtue of the turbine-driving steam generation units 125A and 125B in the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, the turbine-driving steams S.sub.5 and S.sub.7 required for rotationally driving the medium-pressure/high-pressure steam turbine 20 can be acquired, so that an amount of the steam used in the whole exhaust gas treatment device 3 can be reduced.

Second Embodiment

[0064] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the following embodiment, a description is mainly given of differences from the embodiment described above to omit duplicated explanations. Note that, components the same as those in the first embodiment described above are designated by the same reference signs. Furthermore, embodiments described below can be suitably combined for implementation.

[0065] FIG. 5 is a schematic view illustrating an example of an exhaust gas treatment device 4 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 5, the exhaust gas treatment device 4 according to the present embodiment recovers waste heat of combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 respectively discharged from two power generation facilities 10-1 and 10-2 by the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and thereafter, recovers CO.sub.2 contained in the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 by the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. The exhaust gas treatment device 4 includes the power generation facility (first power generation facility) 10-1 discharging the combustion exhaust gas (first combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11-1, the power generation facility (second power generation facility) 10-2 discharging the combustion exhaust gas (second combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11-2, a waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 provided on a downstream stage of the power generation facility 10-1 in a flow direction of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1, the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 provided on a downstream stage of the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1, the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 provided on a downstream stage of the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14 provided on a downstream stage of the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. A stack 15-1 discharging a part of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 is provided between the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 and the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12.

[0066] The power generation facility 10-1 discharges the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 generated by the power generation to an exhaust gas line (first exhaust gas flow path) L.sub.11-1. The exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1 is provided with the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1, the stack 15-1, and a flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 in this order. The flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 adjusts a flow rate of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1. The waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 recovers the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 that is discharged from the power generation facility 10-1 and flows through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1, and supplies the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 from which the waste heat has been recovered to the stack 15-1. The stack 15-1 discharges a part of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 to outside as needed, and supplies the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12.

[0067] The power generation facility 10-2 discharges the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 generated by the power generation to an exhaust gas line (second exhaust gas flow path) L.sub.11-2. The exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2 is provided with a flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2. The flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2 adjusts a flow rate of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2.

[0068] The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is supplied with the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 in which the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1 and the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2 are integrated. The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is provided with the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 that reduces and removes nitrogen oxide such as nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen dioxide contained in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21.

[0069] The exhaust gas treatment device 4 includes the control unit 18 that controls opening amounts of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 and flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2, and the supply amount of the fuel supplied to the power generation facility 10, based on the gas flow rate and temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16. The control unit 18 adjusts the opening amounts of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 and flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2, and the supply amounts of the fuels F supplied to the power generation facilities 10-1 and 10-2 to control such that the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 is 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower. By such control, the exhaust gas treatment device 4 can make the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 in the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 a temperature suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, so that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be further more efficiently decomposed and removed.

[0070] In a case where the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 is lower than 300° C., the control unit 18 controls at least one of the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 to be decreased and the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2 to be increased, so that a ratio, in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2 is increased with respect to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1. This can increase the ratio of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 relative to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1, where the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 is decreased because the heat thereof has been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1, and where the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 is high because the heat thereof has not been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1, and therefore, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 increases. The control unit 18 may maintain the opening amounts of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 and flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2 to increase the supply amount of the fuel supplied to the power generation facility 10 so as to increase the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21.

[0071] In a case where the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 exceeds 400° C., the control unit 18 controls at least one of the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 to be increased and the opening amount of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2 to be decreased, so that the ratio, in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2 is decreased with respect to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1. This can decrease the ratio of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 relative to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1, where the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 is decreased because the heat thereof has been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1, and where the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 is high because the heat thereof has not been recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1, and therefore, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 decreases. The control unit 18 may maintain the opening amounts of the flow rate control valve V.sub.11-1 and flow rate control valve V.sub.11-2 to decrease the supply amount of the fuel supplied to the power generation facility 10 so as to decrease the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21. For the other components, descriptions are omitted since the other components are the same as those of the exhaust gas treatment device 1 illustrated in FIG. 1.

[0072] Next, the overall operation of the exhaust gas treatment device 4 according to the present embodiment will be described. The combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 discharged from the power generation facility 10-1, with the waste heat of the gas G.sub.11-1 being recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 via the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1 to decrease the temperature, after a part of the gas G.sub.11-1 is discharged from the stack 15-1, is supplied to an integrated exhaust gas line L.sub.21. The combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 discharged from the power generation facility 10-2 is supplied via the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2 to the integrated exhaust gas line L.sub.21. In the integrated exhaust gas line L.sub.21, the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 and the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 are integrated to obtain the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, where the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 is recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 to decrease the temperature thereof and the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 has a temperature higher relative to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1, and the resultant integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 is supplied to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12. Here, the control unit 18 controls the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1 and V.sub.11-2 and the supply amount of the fuel F supplied to the power generation facility 10 as needed, such that the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 is a predetermined temperature (for example, 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower). The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is supplied with the reducing agent by the reducing agent supply unit 121 in the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120, and, after nitrogen oxide is decomposed and removed by selective catalytic reduction unit 122, is supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. Here, the control unit 18 controls an amount of the reducing agent supplied from the reducing agent supply unit 121 to the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 as needed, such that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 is a predetermined value or less. The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13, after CO.sub.2 is recovered by the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid, is discharged out of the exhaust gas treatment device 4. CO.sub.2 in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 recovered by the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid is heated to be released from the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid, and thereafter, supplied to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14, and compressed and discharged.

[0073] As described above, according to the above-described embodiment, the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 discharged from the power generation facility 10-1 is recovered by the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 provided to the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1, while the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 after the waste heat is recovered is integrated with the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 discharged from the power generation facility 10-2 and flowing through the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2 in a state of high temperature that the temperature is higher than the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1, and then, the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 is resulted. This can adjust the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 to a range suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, such that nitrogen oxide in the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 discharged from the power generation facility 10 can be efficiently removed. Since the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2 that is one of the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2 does not need to be provided with the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120, the increase in the facility cost can be also reduced. Therefore, the exhaust gas treatment device 4 can be achieved in which nitrogen oxide can be efficiently removed and the increase in the facility cost can be reduced.

[0074] The embodiment described above describes the configuration in which the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 is provided to the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1, but the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 may be configured to be provided to the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2, or the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 may be configured to be provided to both the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1 and the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2. In a case where waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 is provided to both the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1 and the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2, the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be adjusted to a desired temperature by differentiating a recovery amount of the waste heat from the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 in the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 on the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-1 from a recovery amount of the waste heat from the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 in the waste heat recovery boiler 11 on the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2. Each of two power generation facilities 10-1 and 10-2 may be an existing power generation facility, or a newly built power generation facility. For example, in a case where the power generation facility 10-1 is an existing power generation facility, the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be adjusted to a desired temperature only by newly providing the power generation facility 10-2 and the exhaust gas line L.sub.11-2. The configuration of the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 may be the same as the configuration illustrated in FIG. 3 or FIG. 4.

[0075] FIG. 6 is a schematic view illustrating another example of the exhaust gas treatment device 4 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 6, an exhaust gas treatment device 5 according to the present embodiment recovers waste heat of combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1, G.sub.11-2, G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 respectively discharged from five power generation facilities 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5 by the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and thereafter, recovers CO.sub.2 contained in the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1, G.sub.11-2, G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 by the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. The exhaust gas treatment device 5 includes the power generation facility (first power generation facility) 10-1 discharging the combustion exhaust gas (first combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11-1, the power generation facility (first power generation facility) 10-2 discharging the combustion exhaust gas (first combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11-2, the power generation facility (second power generation facility) 10-3 discharging the combustion exhaust gas (second combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11-3, the power generation facility (second power generation facility) 10-4 discharging the combustion exhaust gas (second combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11-4, the power generation facility (second power generation facility) 10-5 discharging the combustion exhaust gas (second combustion exhaust gas) G.sub.11-5, the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 provided on a downstream stage of the power generation facility 10-1 in a flow direction of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1, a waste heat recovery boiler 11-2 provided on a downstream stage of the power generation facility 10-2 in a flow direction of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2, the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 provided on a downstream stage of the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1, the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 provided on a downstream stage of the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14 provided on a downstream stage of the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. The stack 15-1 discharging a part of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 is provided between the waste heat recovery boiler 11-1 and the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and a stack 15-2 discharging a part of the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 is provided between the waste heat recovery boiler 11-2 and the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12.

[0076] The power generation facilities 10-1 and 10-2 discharge the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 generated by the power generation to the exhaust gas lines (first exhaust gas flow path) L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2.

[0077] The exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2 are provided with respectively the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2, the stacks 15-1 and 15-2, and the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1 and V.sub.11-2 in this order. The flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1 and V.sub.11-2 adjust flow rates of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 flowing through the exhaust gases lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2, respectively. The waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2 recover the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 that are discharged from the power generation facilities 10-1 and 10-2 and flow through the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2, and supply the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 from which the waste heat has been recovered to the stacks 15-1 and 15-2, respectively. The stacks 15-1 and 15-2 supply the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12, and discharge a part of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 to outside as needed.

[0078] The power generation facilities 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5 discharge the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4 and G.sub.11-5 generated by the power generation to the exhaust gas lines (second exhaust gas flow path) L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4 and L.sub.11-5, respectively. The exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4 and L.sub.11-5 are provided with flow rate control valves V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5, respectively.

[0079] The flow rate control valves V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5 adjust flow rates of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 flowing through the exhaust gases lines L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4 and L.sub.11-5, respectively.

[0080] The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is supplied with the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 in which the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1, G.sub.11-2, G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 flowing through the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1, L.sub.11-2, L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5 are integrated. The integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is provided with, within thereof, the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 that reduces and removes nitrogen oxide such as nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen dioxide contained in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21.

[0081] The exhaust gas treatment device 5 includes the control unit 18 that controls opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1, V.sub.11-2, V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5 and supply amounts of the fuels F supplied to the power generation facilities 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5, based on the gas flow rate and temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16. The control unit 18 adjusts respectively the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1, V.sub.11-2, V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5, and the supply amounts of the fuels F supplied to the power generation facilities 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5 to control such that the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 is 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower. By such control, the exhaust gas treatment device 5 can make the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 in the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 a temperature suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, so that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be further more efficiently decomposed and removed.

[0082] In a case where the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 is lower than 300° C., the control unit 18 controls at least one of the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1 and V.sub.11-2 to be decreased and the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5 to be increased, so that a ratio, in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 flowing through the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5 is increased with respect to the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 flowing through the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2. This can increase the ratio of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 relative to the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2, where the temperatures of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 are decreased because the heats thereof have been recovered by the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2, and where the temperatures of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 are high because the heats thereof have not been recovered by the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2, and therefore, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 increases. The control unit 18 may maintain the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1, V.sub.11-2, V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5 to increase the supply amounts of the fuels F supplied to the power generation facilities 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5 so as to increase the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21.

[0083] In a case where the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 exceeds 400° C., the control unit 18 controls at least one of the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1 and V.sub.11-2 to be increased and the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5 to be decreased, so that the ratio, in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 flowing through the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5 is decreased with respect to the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 flowing through the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2. This can decrease the ratio of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 relative to the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2, where the temperatures of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 are decreased because the heats thereof have been recovered by the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2, and where the temperatures of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 are high because the heats thereof have not been recovered by the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2, and therefore, the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 measured by the first exhaust gas measurement unit 16 decreases. The control unit 18 may maintain the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1, V.sub.11-2, V.sub.11-3, V.sub.11-4, and V.sub.11-5 to decrease the supply amount of the fuel supplied to the power generation facility 10 so as to decrease the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21. For the other components, descriptions are omitted since the other components are the same as those of the exhaust gas treatment device 1 illustrated in FIG. 1.

[0084] Next, the overall operation of the exhaust gas treatment device 5 according to the present embodiment will be described. The combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 discharged from the power generation facilities 10-1 and 10-2, with the waste heat of the gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 being recovered by the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2 via the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2 to decrease the temperatures, after a part of the gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 is discharged from the stacks 15-1 and 15-2, are supplied to an integrated exhaust gas line L.sub.21. The combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 discharged from the power generation facilities 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5 are supplied via the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5 to the integrated exhaust gas line L.sub.21. In the integrated exhaust gas line L.sub.21, the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 and the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 are integrated to obtain the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21, where the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 is recovered by the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2 to decrease the temperatures thereof and the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 have temperatures higher relative to the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2, and the resultant integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 is supplied to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12. Here, the control unit 18 controls the opening amounts of the flow rate control valves V.sub.11-1 and V.sub.11-2 and the supply amount of the fuel supplied to the power generation facility 10 as needed, such that the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 is a predetermined temperature (for example, 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower). The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 is supplied with the reducing agent by the reducing agent supply unit 121 in the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120, and, after nitrogen oxide is decomposed and removed by selective catalytic reduction unit 122, is supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13. Here, the control unit 18 controls an amount of the reducing agent supplied from the reducing agent supply unit 121 to the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 as needed, such that nitrogen oxide in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13 is a predetermined value or less. The integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 supplied to the CO.sub.2 recovery unit 13, after CO.sub.2 is recovered by the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid, is discharged out of the exhaust gas treatment device 5. CO.sub.2 in the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 recovered by the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid is heated to be released from the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid, and thereafter, supplied to the CO.sub.2 compression portion 14, and compressed and discharged.

[0085] As described above, according to the above-described embodiment, the waste heat of the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 discharged from the power generation facilities 10-1 and 10-2 is recovered by the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2 provided to the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2, while the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2 after the waste heat is recovered are integrated with the combustion exhaust gas G.sub.11-2 discharged from the power generation facilities 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5 and flowing through the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5 in a state of high temperature that the temperature is higher than the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1 and G.sub.11-2, and then, the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 is resulted. This can adjust the temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 to a range suitable for decomposing and removing nitrogen oxide, such that nitrogen oxide in the combustion exhaust gas discharged from the power generation facility 10 can be efficiently removed. Since at least one exhaust gas line (three exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5 in the present embodiment) of the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1, L.sub.11-2, L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5 do not need to be provided with the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120, the increase in the facility cost can be also reduced. Therefore, the exhaust gas treatment device 5 can be achieved in which nitrogen oxide can be efficiently removed and the increase in the facility cost can be reduced.

[0086] The embodiment described above describes the configuration in which the waste heat recovery boilers 11-1 and 11-2 are provided to the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1 and L.sub.11-2, but the waste heat recovery boiler 11 may be configured to be provided to at least one exhaust gas line L.sub.11, or the waste heat recovery boiler 11 may be configured to be provided to all of the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1, L.sub.11-2, L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5. In this case, the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 can be adjusted to a desired temperature by differentiating recovery amounts of the waste heat from the combustion exhaust gases G.sub.11-1, G.sub.11-2, G.sub.11-3, G.sub.11-4, and G.sub.11-5 in the waste heat recovery boiler 11 on the exhaust gas lines L.sub.11-1, L.sub.11-2, L.sub.11-3, L.sub.11-4, and L.sub.11-5. Each of the power generation facilities 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, and 10-5 may be an existing power generation facility, or a newly built power generation facility. The configuration of the integrated waste heat recovery boiler 12 may be the same as the configuration illustrated in FIG. 3 or FIG. 4.

EXAMPLE

[0087] The present inventors investigated in detail effects to reduce the accumulation amount of the nitrogen oxide (NO.sub.2)-derived component in the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid in the exhaust gas treatment device according to the above-described embodiment. Hereinafter, content investigated by the present inventor will be described.

[0088] FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an accumulation amount of a nitrogen oxide-derived component in a CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid in the exhaust gas treatment device according to an example and a comparative example. FIG. 7 illustrates a comparison, in the exhaust gas treatment device according to the above-described embodiment, between the accumulation amount of the nitrogen oxide-derived component in a case where an exhaust gas temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 was made to be in a range of 300° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower (refer to the working example), and the accumulation amount of the nitrogen oxide-derived component in a case where an exhaust gas temperature of the combustion exhaust gas introduced into the nitrogen oxide removal unit 120 was made to be 250° C. (refer to the comparative example). As illustrated in FIG. 7, by adjusting the exhaust gas temperature of the integrated combustion exhaust gas G.sub.21 to the range of 300° C. or greater and 400° C. or lower, the accumulation amount of the nitrogen oxide-derived component in the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid can be reduced to 0.2 times and a reclaiming frequency of the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid can be reduced to about one-fifth as compared with the case that the exhaust gas temperature the combustion exhaust gas is made to be 250° C. From this result, according to the exhaust gas treatment device of the above-described embodiment, it can be seen that the nitrogen oxide accumulated in the CO.sub.2 absorbing liquid can be extremely reduced, and an operation cost of the exhaust gas treatment device can be reduced.
