Abstract: Disclosed are processes, apparatuses, and systems in natural gas pipelines to significantly reduce pigging and blowdown emissions. In an example, a process involves filtering and/or separating pigging or blowdown emissions. The filtered and/or separated pigging/blowdown products can then be stored in a storage, sent back into the natural gas pipeline at a downstream location, or sent to an adjacent pipeline.

Abstract: A flue gas can be cooled for carbon capture purposes with the use of a gas-to-gas exchanger, using air as the cooling media, downstream of a heat recovery process, and optionally upstream of a quenching process; the use of an amine chilling process to reduce the required flue gas cooling duties upstream of the CO2 absorber; the use of a gas-to-gas exchanger, using the absorber overhead as the cooling media, downstream of a heat recovery process, and optionally upstream of the quenching process; and/or the use of a quenching process in which heated water and condensate is cooled by an external cooling loop utilizing treated flue gas condensate in an evaporative cooling process.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for carbon capture optimization in industrial facilities are disclosed herein. An example carbon capture process involves cooling a flue gas stream using at least one gas-to-air heat exchanger disposed upstream of a carbon dioxide (CO2) absorber. Another example carbon capture process involves heating a heat medium for solvent regeneration and CO2 stripping using a fired heater and/or using at least one waste heat recovery unit.

Abstract: Disclosed are processes, apparatuses, and systems that can be used in natural gas pipelines to significantly reduce the CO2 emissions of the natural gas pipelines, by capturing combusted flue gas which is normally wasted and putting it back to the pipelines, which can also be monetized (e.g., carbon credits). One example process may include producing a captured CO2 stream from a combustion gas of a gas turbine in a natural gas pipeline, compressing the captured CO2 stream, and combining the compressed CO2 stream with natural gas transported in the natural gas pipeline.
