REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) EFFECTS BY CO2 ENTRAPPING
FROM INDUSTRIAL FLUE GASES.
REDGHG
FP7 – ENERGY – 2011 – 2
ENERGY.2011.5&6.2-2: Improving efficiencies and reducing GHG emissions
through CO2 capture in industrial applications other than power generation
Collaborative Project with a predominant demonstration component
Green house gas, CO2 Capture, coking plants, iron & steel making industry, cement industry,
chemical industry
In various industries such as steel and iron production industry, cement fabrication
industry, chemical industry, factories which involve burn-up processes associated with
important releases of CO2 (which is a GHG), to entrap CO2 and other pollutants
contained in the flue gases is a utmost important issue.
The project is developing a new procedure to entrap and retain pollutants including the
GHGs in a residual flow.
The current processes to capture and entrap the pollutants from the burnt-up gases are
sequential.
In a first step, the solid pollutants are entrapped and next, in a sequence of steps in
specialized additional installations, the gaseous pollutants such as CO2, SO2, NOx, etc.
For entrapping the pollutants, the entire gas flow is treated in special installations. To
make such installations it is necessary to have large investments and civil work. The
operation of such an installation requires high costs and a large consumption of materials
and energy.
Among the pollutants that need to be captured and entrapped, CO2 is raising special
problems due to the large quantity and volume of gas that need to be processed for to be
retained.
The project will include researches for the development of a new procedure to capture
the pollutants, including CO2 from the TPP flue gases. The new procedure consists in
the sequential ( in-step) entrapping of the pollutants in a fraction of the initial flow.
Concentration of the pollutants is accomplished by the in-step application of
some suction forces on the sides of a lamellar gas jet.
The new procedure may be applied along with the classical procedures of CO2
entrapping in order to make it more efficient, i.e an important reduction of the gas flow
1
to be treated is obtained.
The new procedure and the associated installation for efficient solutions to
capture CO2 are protected by the Romanian State Office for Inventions and
Trademarks, Bucharest, Romania.
Project
Description
(Main Work
Packages)
Capturing and entrapping CO2 from the various industries such as steel and iron
production industry, cement fabrication industry, chemical industry, factories which
involve burn-up processes are among the greatest CO2 pollutants.
The today procedures to concentrate and entrap CO2 are expensive, energy
consuming and require great investments and operation costs.
The project proposes a new procedure to entrap and retain the pollutants by
exclusively employing physical methods. The procedure consists in the concentration of
the gaseous pollutants – CO2, SO2,NOx – in a residual flow and the separate retain of
the dust by collecting into a bunker. The balance of the gas flow containing
concentrations of pollutants below the allowable limits stated in the provisions in force,
are released to the atmosphere directly. Pollutant concentration and entrapping is made in
a simple system made-up of several modules connected in series and parallel so that the
pollutant concentration may be in steps , in a residual flow. The gas flow to be treated
in the current step, is getting reduced than the gas flow treated in the previous step and
it consists in the gas flows with the pollutant concentration above the allowable limits
collected from the previous modules installed in parallel, in order to assure some large
treatment capacities.
A de-polluting module consists of several sub-modules so made to provide the
flow of a lamellar gas jet which is subjected to various controlled de-pressure levels
which separate the components in the flue gases. At each separation level the gas jet
thickness is re-made-up so that the trajectory of the particles which get separated from
the gas jet be minimum .The dust is collected in a sub-module in the lower part and
evacuated by a sneck.
The separation process is favored by the sequential reduction of the gas flow to
be treated. The residual gas flow which is concentrated in pollutants, may be stored in
underground storage facilities or may be efficiently treated for the sequential retain of the
pollutants by known classical methods, due to their low volume. Considering the
simplicity of the procedure, it may be used as a first step in the current process of depolluting in order to enhance the efficiency.
The project is developed in several Work Packages:
WP1 – Analysis of the current procedures for CO2 entrapping from the flue
gases;
2
WP2- Concept and design of a module for pollutant concentration and
entrapping;
WP3- Construction and experimenting a model for the pollutant concentration
and entrapping employing physical methods;
WP4- Experiments with the model of pollutant concentration and entrapping
along 2-3 months period for different flue gases and the analysis of the experiment
results;
WP5- Design of a prototype of a pollutant concentration and entrapping
module for an cement factory
WP6 – Dissemination of the research results.
