COMPRESSOR IMPURITY-REMOVAL SYSTEM

摘要

Impurities in exhaust gas from oxyfuel combustor are removed using simple equipment to reduce installation cost. Compressor-based impurity removal system for compressing exhaust gas mainly composed of carbon dioxide from combustor before supply to carbon dioxide liquefier for removal of impurities in exhaust gas has impurity separators with compressors for compressing exhaust gas from combustor stepwisely to target pressure for liquefaction of carbon dioxide and with aftercoolers for cooling exhaust gas compressed by compressors, water condensed by cooling being discharged as drain, and alkaline agent supply unit for supplying alkaline agent to at least upstream side of aftercooler in first impurity separator. Impurities in exhaust gas are discharged through drain including alkaline agent.

1. A compressor-based impurity removal system for removing impurities in exhaust gas mainly composed of carbon dioxide from an oxyfuel combustor before supply of the exhaust gas to a carbon dioxide liquefier, comprising a plurality of impurity separators comprising a plurality of compressors for compressing exhaust gas from the oxyfuel combustor stepwisely to a target pressure for liquefaction of the exhaust gas, and aftercoolers for cooling the exhaust gas from the respective compressors, water condensed by the cooling being discharged as drain, and an alkaline agent supply unit for supplying an alkaline agent to at least an upstream side of the aftercooler in a first one of the impurity separators, the impurities in the exhaust gas being discharged through the drain containing the alkaline agent separated by the impurity separator.
