Abstract

This chapter presents ion transport membranes (ITM) oxygen process, which is based on ceramic membranes that selectively transport oxygen ions when operated at high temperatures. Under the influence of an oxygen partial pressure driving force, the ITM achieves a high flux, high purity (99+ mol%) separation of oxygen from a compressed-air stream. By integrating the non-permeate stream with a gas turbine system, the overall process co-produces high purity oxygen, power, and steam if desired. The chapter investigates three cases; the base case is presented and costed and involves the supply of the complete oxyfuel system with installation and startup and includes all required utilities. In order to provide the hot air for the ITM oxygen process, two Siemens V94.2 combined cycle gas turbines are used and excess power is exported to the local electricity grid. Other cases also use two Siemens V94.2 gas turbines plus a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) for producing steam.
