DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SEPARATING CARBON DIOXIDE FROM A GAS STREAM, IN PARTICULAR FROM A FLUE GAS STREAM, COMPRISING A COOLING WATER SYSTEM

摘要

A device for separating carbon dioxide from a gas stream, in particular from a flue gas stream, includes an absorber for separating the carbon dioxide from the gas stream by means of a washing medium, a desorber which is fludically connected to the absorber to release the absorbed carbon dioxide from the washing medium, a gas cooler which is fludically connected upstream of the absorber to cool the gas stream, and a processing unit which is connected downstream of the gas cooler and which is equipped and designed to clean water from the gas cooler. A method separates carbon dioxide from a gas stream.

1. A removal apparatus (1) for carbon dioxide from a gas stream or from a flue gas stream, comprising:
an absorber for separating carbon dioxide from the gas stream by means of a scrubbing medium, a desorber which is connected hydrodynamically to the absorber for liberating the absorbed carbon dioxide from the scrubbing medium, a gas cooler which is located hydrodynamically upstream of the absorber for cooling the gas stream, and a treatment unit which is located downstream of the gas cooler and is equipped and configured for purifying water from the gas cooler.
