Black liquor - Gasification

1 The syngas can be burnt in a gas turbine combined cycle to produce electricity (usually called BLGCC for Black Liquor Gasification Combined Cycle; similar to

Integrated gasification combined cycle|IGCC) or converted through Catalysis|catalytic

processes into chemicals or fuels such as methanol, dimethyl ether (DME), or Fischer-Tropsch process|F-T diesel (usually called

BLGMF for Black Liquor Gasification for Motor Fuels)

Combined cycle - Integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC)

1 An integrated gasification combined cycle, or IGCC, is a power plant using

synthesis gas (syngas). Syngas can be produced from a number of sources,

including coal and biomass. The system utilizes gas and steam turbines, the

steam turbine operating off of the heat leftover from the gas turbine. This

process can raise electricity generation efficiency to around 50%.

Carbon sink - Carbon capture

1 In coal-fired power stations, the main alternatives to retrofitting amine-based absorbers to existing power stations are two new technologies: Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle|coal gasification combined-

cycle and oxy-fuel combustion


Kedzierzyn Zero-Emission Plant - Concept

1 The zero carbon emissions are planned to be achieved by the

combination of integrated gasification combined cycle and

carbon capture and storage, as well as the supplement of up to 10%

biomass in the combustion process


Kedzierzyn Zero-Emission Plant - Gasification of coal

1 Coal is converted into synthesis gas by the integrated gasification

combined cycle technology. CO2 separation is required in order to

obtain a gas composition adequate for further processing. As a result of

the gas purification process the obtained CO2 has a concentration of

up to 99%, which permits its commercial use or storage.


Kedzierzyn Zero-Emission Plant - Pre-combustion carbon capture and storage

1 The use of integrated gasification combined cycle technology allows to remove the carbon content of coal before burning it (pre-combustion

carbon capture)


Southern Company - Corrective measures

1 Southern Company’s Kemper Project|Kemper project in Mississippi will be

the only Integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) plant in the

U.S


Kemper Project

1 The 'Kemper project' is an integrated gasification combined cycle plant

planned for Kemper County, Mississippi. Mississippi Power is

currently building this plant; construction began in 2010.

Integrated-gasification is a process that turns coal into gas.

Kemper Project - Background

1 Because the activities involved with IGCC (integrated gasification combined cycle plant) involve

minimal water consumption, these processes will not negatively harm

the water sources of the area


Coal gasification

1 In current practice, large-scale instances of coal gasification are

primarily for electricity generation, such as in integrated gasification combined cycle power plants, for

production of chemical feedstocks, or for production of synthetic natural

gas


Coal gasification - Carbon capture technology

1 Gasification and integrated gasification combined cycle’s unique ability to easily remove CO2 from the

syngas prior to its combustion in a gas turbine (called pre-combustion CO2 capture) or its use in fuels or chemicals synthesis is one of its

significant advantages over conventional coal utilization systems.


FutureGen - Technology overview

1 Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) was the core technology behind FutureGen. IGCC power plants use two

turbines – a gas and a steam turbine – to produce electric power more efficiently than pulverized coal plants. IGCC plants

also make it easier to capture carbon dioxide for carbon sequestration.

Integrated gasification combined cycle

1 An 'integrated gasification combined cycle' ('IGCC') is a

technology that uses a gasifier to turn coal and other carbon based

fuels into gas—synthesis gas (syngas)


Energy policy of the United States - Coal

1 Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) is the cleanest currently

operational coal-fired electricity generation technology. FutureGen is

an experimental U.S. research project to investigate the possibility of sequestering IGCC CO2 emissions

underground.

Integrated Gasification Fuel Cell Cycle

1 A power cycle based on gasification of solid fuel and SOFCs is called an

Integrated Gasification Fuel Cell (IGFC) cycle; the IGFC power plant is

analogous to an integrated gasification combined cycle power

plant, but with the gas turbine power generation unit replaced with a fuel cell (high temperature type such as

SOFC) power generation unithttps://store.theartofservice.com/the-integrated-gasification-combined-cycle-toolkit.html

Integrated Gasification Fuel Cell Cycle - Process Configuration

1 Due to the inherently efficient SOFC, and to using recovered SOFC exhaust heat to generate additional electric power, an IGFC system is capable of operating at a high electric efficiency

that significantly exceeds those associated with pulverized coal-fired boiler|conventional pulverized coal

and integrated gasification combined cycle power systems


Integrated Gasification Fuel Cell Cycle - Gasification Choices for IGFC

1 Entrained flow gasifiers (e.g., GE Energy, Shell, E-Gas™, Siemens)

could attract early interest for fuel cell power system applications because they are relatively well

developed and are used in current integrated gasification combined cycle power system designs and

applications


Hi-Gen Power

1 In October 2010, AFC Energy, Powerfuel Power, and B9 Coal agreed

to integrate the AFC Energy's fuel cell technology with the integrated

gasification combined cycle technology at the planned Hatfield

power station at the Hatfield Colliery near Doncaster.
