PROCESS FOR CO2 CAPTURE WITH IMPROVED STRIPPER PERFORMANCE

摘要

The present application relates to systems and processes for removal of gaseous contaminants from gas streams. In particular, the application relates to a process for removal of gaseous contaminants from a gas stream comprising contacting the gas stream with a wash solution to remove gaseous contaminants from the gas stream by absorption into the wash solution; and regenerating the used wash solution to remove gaseous contaminants from the used wash solution, to provide a regenerated wash solution and a gas comprising removed contaminants, wherein in a first regeneration stage the gas comprising removed contaminants is cooled to minimize loss of water vapor from the regeneration step.
