  • Publication number: 20120009075
    Abstract: Systems for efficiently compressing a gas are included. In one embodiment, a system includes a carbonous gas compression system and a vapor absorption chiller (VAC). The carbonous gas compression system comprises a compressor configured to compress the carbonous gas. The VAC is configured to circulate a coolant through at least one coolant path through the carbonous gas compression system. Utilization of the VAC may aid in cooling the carbonous gas, which may allow for less energy to be expended by the compression system.

  • Publication number: 20100275648
    Abstract: A system and method for reduction of diluent gaseous nitrogen (DGAN) compressor power in combined cycle power plant. A vapor absorption chiller (VAC) may be utilized to generate and transmit cooled fluid, such as water, to one or more heat exchangers located upstream and/or downstream of at least one compressor of the DGAN compressor system. Utilization of these heat exchangers may cool the temperature of the nitrogen, which may allow for less energy to be expended by the DGAN in compression of the nitrogen.
