Recent developments in carbon dioxide capture technologies for gas turbine power generation

摘要

This paper describes the status of various carbon capture technologies investigated and outlines challenges and opportunities of carbon capture in gas turbine power generation for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Technical achievements, maturity, drivers, barriers and gaps in knowledge are described for four technologies: novel chemical solvents and processes, low temperature separation, membranes and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) in gas turbines. As a near-term application, carbon capture in gas turbine power generation for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is analyzed and drivers, requirements and challenges are outlined. The paper is structured as follows: the first section describes the current global status of carbon capture and storage (CCS), second section explains the approach followed in the paper, third section presents a literature review, fourth section provides a technical analysis of the focus technologies, fifth section describes challenges and opportunities of carbon capture from gas turbines for CO2-EOR applications and finally sixth section provides conclusions.
