Method and system for treating an effluent stream generated by a carbon capture system

摘要

A system for treating an effluent stream (126) including a carbon capture system (120) utilizing an amine-containing solution to remove carbon dioxide from a flue gas stream (116), the carbon capture system (120) generating an effluent stream (126) comprising degradation products generated by the amine-containing solution; storage means (130) for storing at least a portion of the effluent stream (126), the storage means (130) being fluidly coupled to the carbon capture system (120). The system also including at least one nozzle (136) connected to a combustion zone (112) of a boiler (110), the at least one nozzle (136) being fluidly coupled to the storage means (130) for providing at least a portion of the effluent stream (126) present in the storage means (130) to the combustion zone (112) of the boiler (110) through the at least one nozzle (136), wherein the effluent stream (126) provided to the combustion zone (112) is co-incinerated with a fuel (114) in the combustion zone (112).
