Abstract
Abstract This study aims to optimize energy consumption in post-combustion carbon capture processes at a Natural Gas Combined Cycle (NGCC) power plant. It further addresses challenges associated with steam extraction from NGCC power plants and explores non-condensable steam turbines to boost process efficiency. Various scenarios are explored to minimize energy requirements by leveraging heat integration and alternative solvent compositions. The research uses simulations with commercially available software and literature-derived data to address the challenges of high energy consumption in such processes. Emphasis is placed on optimizing solvent composition and implementing advanced heat optimization strategies to reduce energy consumption. Four scenarios with different solvent compositions are investigated, utilizing Monoethanolamine and aqueous piperazine. The results show that process parameter optimization and heat optimization strategies can result in significant energy savings. To attain a carbon-neutral energy landscape, this research helps develop more sustainable and effective carbon capture methods.
