Integrated apparatus for generating power and/or oxygen enriched fluid, and process thereof

摘要

In an integrated power generation system, part of the air from a gas turbine compressor (1) is separated in a single nitrogen wash column (15) to remove oxygen and the gaseous nitrogen (21, 42)produced at the top of the column is sent back to a point upstream of the expander (5) of the gas turbine. The wash column may be fed with liquid nitrogen (17) from an independent air separation unit (A) in which air is separated by cryogenic distillation. Liquid (37) from the bottom of the wash column may be fed back to the air separation unit (A
