4. Some future options with fossil fuels………
• IGCC with carbon capture (pre-combustion
or post-combustion)
Oxy-fuel combustion and CO2 capture and
storage
Membranes specific for certain gases –
O2, CO2, H2 etc. and integration with existing
technology
7. Possible options ………..…..
• Biomass based power (CO2 – neutral).
• Improving energy efficiency and environment
performance (Cogeneration, Gasification)
• Reducing CO2 emission even more (net CO2 –
negative)
• Combining all these – possible future
sustainable options with efficient and net
CO2- negative power generation units.
• Challenges – technology maturity, scaling up….
8. Objective of the Present Work
Objective
• Model development of biomass integrated
gasification combined cogeneration (BIGCC) with
CO2 capture
• Simulation of the model by using ASPEN Plus®
• Defining a non-dimensional thermodynamic
performance parameter- capture performance
• Finding the optimum degree of CO2
capture,
based
on
thermodynamic
performance, i.e., capture performance

16. Conclusions
• Reboiler heat duty increases sharply beyond
50% of CO2 capture
• For plants with CO2 capture, utility heat may be
utilized for CO2 capture process
• For net CO2 negative plant, operational
condition may be thermodynamically optimized
with selection of suitable carbon capture
efficiency (say, for this study 0-0.5).
