Method of and power plant for generating power by oxyfuel combustion

InactiveUS7874140B2Costs lossesLosses of powerGas turbine plantsHeat recoveryPower stationCombustion
A method of and a power plant for generating power by combusting carbonaceous fuel with substantially pure oxygen, and a method of modifying a process of generating power by combusting carbonaceous fuel from combusting the fuel with air to combusting the fuel with substantially pure oxygen. The methods include feeding substantially pure oxygen into a furnace for combusting fuel with the oxygen to produce exhaust gas including mainly carbon dioxide and water, recovering low-grade heat from the exhaust gas by using multiple exhaust gas coolers arranged in a downstream portion of the exhaust gas channel, wherein a first portion of the recovered low-grade heat is used for preheating feedwater; pressurizing a first portion of the exhaust gas in multiple exhaust gas compressors so as to produce liquid carbon dioxide, recycling a second portion of the exhaust gas to the furnace via an exhaust gas recycling channel, using a first portion of steam extracted from a steam turbine system to preheat feedwater, wherein the first portion of the recovered low-grade heat is more than 50% of the total amount of recovered low-grade heat, or larger than the first portion of the recovered low-grade heat in the air-fired process, allowing minimizing of the first portion of the extracted steam, and the expanding of a second portion of the extracted steam in at least one auxiliary steam turbine for driving at least one compressor or at least one pump of the power plant.

Gaseous fuel burner

An ejector, such as a venturi, facilitates the delivery of gaseous fuel to the combustion chamber of a burner. A blower forces air through the ejector, and the air flow produces a suction that draws fuel from a fuel inlet to produce a fuel-air mixture. The amount of fuel drawn from the fuel inlet is a function of the air flow such that a substantially constant fuel-air ratio is obtained over a range of air flow rates and temperatures without the need for a separate high-pressure fuel pump. The fuel-air mixture may be provided to a combustion chamber for combustion. Air from the blower may be pre-heated prior to entering the ejector, for example, using a heat exchanger that recovers some of the heat from the combusted fuel-air mixture. Air flow through the ejector may be conditioned, for example, by a swirler, to produce a tangential air flow that can increase fuel flow by increasing air velocity across the fuel inlet and / or produce a swirl-stabilized flame in the combustion chamber. The combusted fuel-air mixture may be provided to a thermal load, such as an external combustion engine. Blower speed may be controlled manually or automatically to control power output. Fuel flow to the ejector can be controlled manually or automatically to control fuel-air ratio. The burner can be configured to operate with multiple fuel types, for example, using a fuel selector with fixed or variable restrictors.
