Abstract: An in-situ incremental reheating system configured to increase steam temperature and thermodynamic efficiencies of a steam turbine is disclosed. The system includes a pump; a radiant heater; piping inter-connecting the pump, radiant heater and steam turbine to create a flow circuit; and a heat transfer material configured to flow through the flow circuit and transfer heat directly to steam used in the steam turbine. The pump moves the heat transfer material through the flow circuit and the radiant heater regenerates the heat transfer material after the heat transfer material transfers heat to the steam.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for the regeneration of absorbed gas rich capture medium such as an absorption solution and the recovery of absorbed gas therefrom, an apparatus and method for the removal and recovery of a target gas from a gas stream, and the use of the same for post combustion carbon capture on a thermal power plant are described. The apparatus and method make use of a regenerative heating process. The apparatus and method are distinctly characterized by the use of CRH steam as a source of thermal energy for the heating process.

The apparatus and method make use of a regenerative heating process. The apparatus and method are distinctly characterized by the use of a heat pump to utilize low grade heat, for example from elsewhere in the process, as a source of thermal energy for the heating process.
