Carbon dioxide capture power generation system
View Patent ↗The present invention discloses a carbon dioxide capture power generation system provided with a boiler to combust a fuel in the oxygen atmosphere, a carbon dioxide capture equipment to remove carbon dioxide in the wake flow of the boiler, a piping branching from the wake flow of the boiler to recycle the combustion exhaust gas to the boiler, and a desulfurization equipment to remove sulfur oxides and a sulfuric acid removal equipment to remove a sulfuric acid gas in the upstream of carbon dioxide capture equipment and in the wake flow of the boiler.
1. A carbon dioxide capture power generation system comprising:
a boiler to combust a fuel;
a carbon dioxide capture device to remove carbon dioxide disposed downstream of the boiler;
a dehydration device to remove moisture disposed upstream of said carbon dioxide capture device,
a piping branching from downstream of the boiler to recycle an exhaust gas to the boiler; and
a desulfurization device to remove sulfur oxides from said exhaust gas and a sulfuric acid removal device to remove a sulfuric acid gas which is different from said desulfurization device, both said desulfurization device and said sulfuric acid removal device being disposed upstream of said carbon dioxide capture device and said dehydration device and downstream of the boiler;
wherein no dehydration devices are between said desulfurization device and said sulfuric acid removal device.
2. A carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 1 , wherein said piping has a branch point to recycle the exhaust gas to the boiler.
3. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 2 , wherein:
said sulfuric acid removal device is disposed downstream of the branch point.
4. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 1 , wherein said sulfuric acid removal device includes a sulfuric acid adsorbent.
5. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 4 , wherein said sulfuric acid adsorbent is in a powder form or a blocky form.
6. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 4 , wherein said sulfuric acid adsorbent includes at least one of activated carbon, biomass fuel, or coal.
7. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 4 , wherein said sulfuric acid adsorbent is removable.
8. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 7 , wherein said sulfuric acid adsorbent is a fuel for said boiler.
9. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 8 , further comprising a sulfuric acid adsorbent hopper to supply said sulfuric acid adsorbent to said sulfuric acid removal device.
10. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 1 , further comprising a mercury removal device downstream of said sulfuric acid removal device.
11. The carbon dioxide capture power generation system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a first piping to charge the sulfuric acid adsorbent to said sulfuric acid removal device;
a charging valve at said first piping;
a second piping to discharge a sulfuric acid adsorbent from said sulfuric acid removal device;
a discharging valve at said second piping;
a sulfuric acid concentration measuring instrument at an exit of said sulfuric acid removal device; and
a control unit controlling said charging valve and said discharging valve based on a value of said sulfuric acid concentration measuring instrument.
