Sulphur-assisted carbon capture and storage (CCS) processes and systems

摘要

A system for carbon capture includes an oxy-fuel combustor for combusting a hydrocarbon with pure oxygen to produce heat energy and carbon dioxide, a COS converter for converting the carbon dioxide to COS, a transport means for transporting the COS, a sulphur recovery unit for recovering sulphur from the COS and an adjunct sulphur-burning power plant for combusting the sulphur to generate energy for powering one or more carbon capture and storage processes.
