  • Publication number: 20100218674
    Abstract: A CO2 recovery apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes: a CO2 absorber that brings flue gas containing CO2 into contact with CO2 absorbing liquid to reduce CO2 in the flue gas; a regenerator that reduces CO2 in CO2 absorbing liquid (rich solvent) that has absorbed the CO2 in the CO2 absorber to regenerate the CO2 absorbing liquid, so that the regenerated absorbing liquid (lean solvent), having CO2 reduced in the regenerator, is reused in the CO2 absorber; a first compressor to a fourth compressor that compress the CO2 gas released from the regenerator; and an O2 reducing apparatus arranged between the second compressor and a second cooler to reduce O2 in the CO2 gas.

  • Publication number: 20100180764
    Abstract: An absorbent according to the present invention absorbs CO2 or H2S contained in flue gas emitted from a power generating plant such as a thermal plant, and contains three or more amine compounds selected from linear or cyclic amine compounds having a primary amino group, and linear or cyclic amine compounds having a secondary amino group. By way of a synergetic effect of the mixture of these compounds, the absorption speed of CO2 or H2S absorption is improved. A small amount of CO2 contained in a large amount of boiler flue gas can be absorbed efficiently.

  • Publication number: 20100170396
    Abstract: A CO2 reducing system (10A) is constituted by a low-temperature CO2 reducing apparatus (11-1) that includes a low-temperature absorber (1006-1) that reduces at least one of CO2 and H2S by bringing flue gas (1002) including at least one of CO2 and H2S into contact with a low-temperature absorbing solution (1005-1), a low-temperature regenerator (1008-1) that regenerates a low-temperature rich solution (1007-1), a low-temperature rich-solution supply line (12-1) that feeds the low-temperature rich solution (1007-1) to the low-temperature regenerator (1008-1), and a low-temperature lean-solution supply line (13-1) that feeds a low-temperature lean solution (1009-1) to the low-temperature absorber (1006-1) from the low-temperature regenerator (1008-1); and a high-temperature CO2 reducing apparatus (11-2) that is arranged on a side at which the flue gas (1002) is discharged, and that has the same configuration as the low-temperature CO2 reducing apparatus (11-1).

  • Publication number: 20090272114
    Abstract: Heat recovery equipment recovers heat from flue gas. The heat recovery equipment includes a power generation plant that drives a steam turbine by superheated steam produced in a boiler, and an exhaust-gas treatment line that treats flue gas output from the boiler. The exhaust-gas treatment line includes a first air preheater, a heat extractor unit, and a dry electrostatic precipitator. The power generation plant includes a condensed water line. The condensed water line includes a condenser, a condensed water heater, and a low-pressure feedwater heater. The condensed water heater heats water condensed by the condenser with the heat recovered by the heat extractor unit.

  • Patent number: 7462330
    Abstract: A liquid column type exhaust gas treatment apparatus comprising a spray header (2) for injecting an absorbing solution upward in an absorption tower (1), wherein exhaust gas introduced from a lower part of the absorption tower (1) and the absorbing solution injected from the spray header (2) are brought into gas-liquid contact with each other, by which desulfurization of exhaust gas is accomplished, characterized in that drift preventing plates (5a and 5b) are provided in a liquid top portion of a liquid column (6) formed by the absorbing solution and/or at the installation position of the spray header (2).

  • Patent number: 7326286
    Abstract: Provided is an exhaust gas treating tower in which exhaust gas flow velocity is increased more than a prior art case so that exhaust gas treating efficiency can be enhanced or the exhaust gas treating tower can be made compact if equivalent performance is to be maintained. Also, an exhaust gas treating tower ensuring a liquid recovery is provided. In an exhaust gas treating tower 10A, liquid columns C are generated and also a liquid drop generating member 20 is provided to thereby generate liquid drops M therearound to be floated. Also, liquid is spouted from spray nozzles to thereby generate liquid films F in area different from the liquid columns C. In an exhaust gas treating tower 110, a liquid drop eliminator 120 is provided upstream of a mist eliminator 118. Interval P1 of collecting plates 121 of the liquid drop eliminator 120 is made larger than interval P2 of collecting plates 119 of the mist eliminator 118.
