Institute of Energy SystemsMotivation
· NGCC power plants have the lowest specific CO2 emissions of fossil
fuelled power plants
▸ ~ 340 g CO2 / kWhel (60 % net efficiency)
▸ Further reduction to << 100 g CO2 / kWhel with CCS technologies
· Studies of different capture processes assume different capture rates
▸ 90 % for post combustion / 100 % for Oxyfuel
▸ Net efficiency does not provide a common basis for comparison
· Legislative framework could favour the focus on a CO2 emission limit
▸ A limit of 100 g CO2 / kWhel requires 90 % capture rate for coal but only 75
% for natural gas

Influence of the capture rate on the PCC unit
· Specific heat duty increases sharply at capture rates above 85 %
▸ Efficiency penalty varies between 4.8 and 9.4 %-pts.
· Same tendency for improved capture processes
▸ flue gas recycle shifts the sharp increase of the specific heat duty to higher capture rates (~ 90 %)

Institute of Energy SystemsInfluence of the capture rate on the SCOC-CC
· Assumed CO2 purity for transport and storage 96 vol.-% (dry)
▸ CO2 purification (partial condensation) Reduced capture rate
▸ Two condensation stages at -25 °C and -30 – -50 °C
▸ Only small effects ASU loss independent of the capture rate
· Alternative: High purity O2, 1 vol.-% O2 (dry) in flue gas
▸ Energy demand for the ASU (99.5 vol.-% O2): 0.241 kWh/ kg O2
▸ 100 % Capture rate Additional penalty 0.8 %-pts.

· Post combustion capture for natural gas has a significantly lower loss for a wide range of capture ratios Minimum at ~ 80 %
· SCOC-CC only advantageous if full capture is required
▸ If purity is restricted high purity oxygen is necessary

10
· Post combustion capture for NGCC allows an adjustment of the capture rate to a required CO2 emission limit for a wide range of capture rates
▸ Specific electric loss is approx. constant from 60 to 90 % at 0.38 kWh/kg CO2
▸ Sharp increase of the specific electric loss for higher capture rates
▸ Minimum specific loss at 80 % capture rate
· The SCOC-CC leads to a higher specific electric loss of > 0.45 kWh/kg CO2
▸ Specific loss increases for lower capture rates because the ASU is independent of the capture rate
▸ Only at full capture case advantageous compared to post-combustion capture
▸ 96 vol.-% CO2 purity at full capture is only achievable with high purity oxygen
· Compared to coal-fired plants the specific electric loss due to CCS technologies is higher for NGCC plants
