Introduction
There are several technologies available for solvent
based Carbon Capture To name a few:
– Alstom– Aker Solutions– Cansolv– Fluor– MHI – Siemens
Few of these companies have demonstrated on natural

Fluor’s Econamine FG+SM Experience
One of the most proven post-combustion CO2 capture
process available:– Vast body of commercial experience– 28 plants to date– Fluor has been active in post-combustion capture since
the late 1980s
Suitable for a range of O2 and CO2 containing gas
streams– CO2 : 3% to 20% by volume
– O2 : 1 to 15% by volume

Project Profile: Bellingham, MA
Capacity 360 tons/d 40 MW flue gas flow from NGCC power plant CO2 Concentration: 3.5% v/v
O2 Concentration: 13 to 14% v/v
100% air cooled Product Usage: Food-grade CO2
Continuous commercial operation from 1991 to
2005 (14 years) 98.5% on-stream factor in 2004 Shutdown due to high natural gas price

Challenges and Mitigation Strategies
![Page 12: Technologies for CCS on Natural Gas Power Systems Satish Reddy April 2104](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103015/551a368855034619378b5aee/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Column Scale-up
Columns of 20 m or 60 ft are not common
Proper gas and liquid distribution
At the same time, pressure drop needs to minimized

Column Scale-up
Mitigation Strategies
– Build absorption system in multiple trains: Downside is
higher CAPEX
– Conduct CFD analysis and use proven scale-up
measures
– Learn from other applications where large columns have
been deployed

Energy Consumption
Typical electric load for a NGCC capture unit:– Capture 35%– Compression 65%
Compression is a mature technology. – Efficiency is very high: Approximately 85% to 88%– Not much room for improvement
Room for improvement in capture energy consumption– Steam demand is between 2.6 to 2.8 GJ/t– Many claims of lower steam demand have not been
substantiated

Emissions
Typical emissions include the following species:– Ammonia– VOCs– Solvent vapor
With some processes: nitrosamines Measurement techniques including online analyses
have considerably improved

Summary
It is time for large scale natural gas based demo plants
to be built in the US Useful demonstration scale is 200 to 250 MW Proven solvents should be considered instead of
“chasing the rainbow” There is much more to building a robust and energy
efficient plant that just pure chemistry Systematic quantification of environmental performance
is required.
