METHOD FOR REDUCING THE CO2 EMISSION OF FOSSIL-FUELLED POWER GENERATING PLANTS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for reducing the COSUB2/SUB emission of fossil-fuelled power generating plants. According to the invention, hydrocarbons are synthesized from hydrogen (HSUB2/SUB) and carbon dioxide (COSUB2/SUB) contained in the flue gas of the power generating plant, wherein the hydrogen is obtained electrolytically, optionally using part of the electrical energy produced by the power generating plant. While reducing the COSUB2/SUB emission, fuels can advantageously be produced. The invention also relates to a power generating plant for carrying out the method, which has a synthesis reactor (18), connected to the flue gas discharge system (9-12) of the power generating plant, and optionally devices (8) for the electrolytic obtainment of hydrogen.
