Absorption liquid regeneration apparatus, CO
An absorption liquid regeneration apparatus includes: a regeneration tower for regenerating a CO 2 absorption liquid; a reflux water drum configured to separate released gas from the regeneration tower into CO 2 gas and condensed water, and return the condensed water to the regeneration tower; and a cleaning part installed in a gas-phase part of the reflux water drum or in a CO 2 flow passage through which the CO 2 gas having flowed from the gas-phase part flows, and configured to remove a CO 2 absorption agent contained in the CO 2 gas by using a cleaning liquid. The cleaning liquid has a lower concentration of the CO 2 absorption agent than the condensed water stored in a liquid-phase part of the reflux water drum.

a line switching part configured to be capable of selecting a supply line of the cleaning liquid, so that the cleaning liquid from at least one of the first cleaning liquid line or the second cleaning liquid line is supplied to the cleaning part.
9. The absorption liquid regeneration apparatus according to claim 6 ,
further comprising a cleaning drum installed in the CO 2 flow passage separately from the reflux water drum,
wherein the cleaning part is installed above a liquid pool part at the bottom of the cleaning drum, and
wherein the absorption liquid regeneration apparatus further comprises a cleaning liquid supply part configured to supply the cleaning liquid to the cleaning part of the cleaning drum.
10. The absorption liquid regeneration apparatus according to claim 9 ,
further comprising a circulation line for circulating the cleaning liquid stored in the liquid pool part to the cleaning liquid supply part.
