Absorption solvent regeneration device, CO2 recovery device, and method for modifying absorption solvent regeneration device

1. An absorption solvent regeneration device, comprising:

a regenerator for regenerating an absorption solvent by separating CO 2 from the absorption solvent which has absorbed CO 2 ;

a main rich solvent line for supplying the absorption solvent which has absorbed CO 2 to the regenerator;

a regeneration reboiler for heating an absorption solvent extracted from the regenerator;

a reboiler line configured to extract the absorption solvent stored in the regenerator and return the absorption solvent to the regenerator via the regeneration reboiler;

a branch rich solvent line branching from the main rich solvent line for supplying a portion of the absorption solvent to a portion of the reboiler line downstream of the regeneration reboiler; and

a heating part for heating the absorption solvent flowing through the branch rich solvent line, the heating part being disposed on the branch rich solvent line.

2. The absorption solvent regeneration device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the regeneration reboiler is configured such that a flow of the absorption solvent discharged from the regeneration reboiler to the reboiler line is a two-phase flow.

3. The absorption solvent regeneration device according to claim 1 , further comprising a steam supply line for supplying steam for heating the absorption solvent to the regeneration reboiler,

wherein the heating part includes a heat exchanger configured to exchange heat between condensed water of steam after heating the absorption solvent in the regeneration reboiler and the absorption solvent flowing through the branch rich solvent line.

4. The absorption solvent regeneration device according to claim 1 , further comprising a valve for regulating a flow rate of the absorption solvent in the branch rich solvent line, the valve being disposed in the branch rich solvent line.

5. A CO 2 recovery device, comprising:

an absorber configured to cause CO 2 in a flue gas to be absorbed by an absorption solvent by bringing the flue gas containing CO 2 and the absorption solvent into contact; and

the absorption solvent regeneration device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the main rich solvent line is configured to supply the absorption solvent which has absorbed CO 2 in the absorber to the regenerator.

6. A method for modifying an absorption solvent regeneration device, the absorption solvent regeneration device including:

a regenerator for regenerating an absorption solvent by separating CO 2 from the absorption solvent which has absorbed CO 2 ;

a main rich solvent line for supplying the absorption solvent which has absorbed CO 2 to the regenerator;

a regeneration reboiler for heating an absorption solvent extracted from the regenerator; and

a reboiler line configured to extract the absorption solvent stored in the regenerator and return the absorption solvent to the regenerator via the regeneration reboiler;

the method comprising a step of additionally installing a branch rich solvent line branching from the main rich solvent line for supplying a portion of the absorption solvent to a portion of the reboiler line downstream of the regeneration reboiler, and a heating part for heating the absorption solvent flowing through the branch rich solvent line, the heating part being disposed in the branch rich solvent line.

7. The method for modifying an absorption solvent regeneration device according to claim 6 , further comprising a step of installing, in the branch rich solvent line, a valve for regulating a flow rate of the absorption solvent in the branch rich solvent line.
