Abstract: This invention relates to a method for desalination of seawater (5, 30) and separation of CO2 from exhaust (77) from a gas turbine (7). LNG (4) is fed into a heat exchanger (6) in which it receives heat from seawater (5) and heat from steam (27) from an exhaust boiler, and heat from combustion air (3) via a line to an air inlet (33) of said gas turbine (7), for evaporating LNG (4) to gas which is fed to a gas export module (10) and to a fuel gas skid (8) for supplying said gas turbine (7) with fuel. Thus said combustion air (3, 28) at the air inlet to said gas turbine (7) obtains a lowered temperature and increases an efficiency of said gas turbine (7). Said CO2-rich exhaust gas (77) from said gas turbine (7) is fed into a process unit (17) having an inlet (35a) with a fan (35b) and an outlet for CO2-reduced exhaust (13). Said cooled seawater from said heat exchanger (6) is fed into said process unit (17) via a coaxial feed pipe (67) for seawater and NH4OH arranged in said process unit (17).

Abstract: A method for generation of electrical power mainly from a coal based fuel, where the combustion gas is separated into a CO2 rich stream and a CO2 poor stream in a CO2 capturing unit, the CO2 poor stream is released into the surroundings, and the CO2 rich stream is prepared for deposition or export, is described.

Abstract: A method for transport of natural gas through a pipeline from a gas field to a terminal, where there is a risk of condensation of heavy hydrocarbon components in the pipeline during the transport, wherein dry gas is added to the natural gas to reduce the cricondentherm and the cricondentherm of the gas and thus prevent condensation in the pipeline, is described.

Abstract: A method for the generation of electrical power from a carbonaceous fuel, wherein the fuel is combusted in presence of oxygen under increased pressure in a combustion chamber is described. The exhaust gas from the combustion is separated into a CO2 rich fraction that is handled so that it does not escape to the surroundings, and a CO2 depleted fraction that is expanded over one or more turbines to power other processes and/or generation of electrical power, before the gas is released into the surroundings, where the temperature in the combustion chamber is reduced under the generation of steam that is expanded over steam turbines connected to electrical generator for the generation of electrical power. Additionally a thermal power plant for the performing of the method is described.
