A carbon capture enabled system and method for generating electric power and/or fuel from methane containing sources using oxygen transport membranes by first converting the methane containing feed gas into a high pressure synthesis gas. Then, in one configuration the synthesis gas is combusted in oxy-combustion mode in oxygen transport membranes based boiler reactor operating at a pressure at least twice that of ambient pressure and the heat generated heats steam in thermally coupled steam generation tubes within the boiler reactor; the steam is expanded in steam turbine to generate power; and the carbon dioxide rich effluent leaving the boiler reactor is processed to isolate carbon. In another configuration the synthesis gas is further treated in a gas conditioning system configured for carbon capture in a pre-combustion mode using water gas shift reactors and acid gas removal units to produce hydrogen or hydrogen-rich fuel gas that fuels an integrated gas turbine and steam turbine system to generate power. The disclosed method and system can also be adapted to integrate with coal gasification systems to produce power from both coal and methane containing sources with greater than 90% carbon isolation.

An object of the present invention is to reflect a band of the bottleneck into the cost, to select an optimal path, and to enhance an efficiency of the net utilization without making a setting or a modification to the apparatus (bridge etc.) in which the path control protocol operates in a case where a difference exists between an actually utilizable rate (a band of the bottleneck) in the path between the bridges etc. and a link rate of the connection link such as the bridge etc. in a net in which the apparatus (bridge etc.), in which the path control protocol (STP etc.) for automatically computing a cost of a link by a physical band of the connection link operates, exists. In the system of the present invention, the port manager within the relay apparatus, upon receipt of a notification of the link rate from the port, investigates which side, out of the WAN side and the LAN side, becomes a bottleneck, and the cost rewriter within the relay apparatus rewrites the root path cost field within the BPDU in conformity to the rate of the bottleneck.

A photovoltaic (solar) cell comprises two photovoltaic devices that are quantum mechanically coupled via a charge-coupling layer. One of the PV devices may have an energy band gap that is larger than or equal to an energy band gap of the other of the PV devices. The effective electron barrier heights or electron affinity on side portions of the quantum coupling layer are higher than the maximum energy of photo-generated electrons in the photovoltaic devices. The photovoltaic device with larger band gap may include an electron and/or hole transport layer and photon absorbing layer. Photons are transmitted through the transport layer to the absorbing layer. Some high energy photons are absorbed by the absorbing layer. The absorbing layer may function as an absorber of high energy photons and generator of electrons/holes (or excitons). Holes generated in the absorbing layer may be quenched by electrons from the second photovoltaic device.

An efficient thermodynamic cycle system utilizing vortex tubes is mainly composed of a work medium pump, a heat exchanger, an expanding machine and a vortex tube flow dividing and cooling unit. The vortex tube flow dividing and cooling unit is formed by combining the multiple vortex tubes. Liquid working media separated from the vortex tubes directly enter a working medium pump inlet. Gaseous working media enter the heat exchanger to exchange heat with low-temperature working media on the high-pressure side of the cycle system. The cooled working media enter the vortex tubes again to be subjected to flow dividing and cooling; liquid working media enter the working medium pump inlet; and gaseous working media enter the heat exchanger to exchange heat with low-temperature working media on the high-pressure side of the cycle system again. Due to flow dividing and cooling of the multi-stage vortex tubes and many times of heat exchange with the low-temperature working media, most of the working media enter the working medium pump inlet in the form of liquid, only an extremely small part of working media are not liquefied, the proportion of the working media entering the working medium pump inlet to the non-liquefied working media is proper, and it can be guaranteed that all the working media on the working medium pump inlet are liquid working media by combining the working media entering the working medium pump inlet and the non-liquefied working media. A liquid working medium pump is used for pressurizing working media, power consumption of the pump is reduced, heat in the cycle system is recycled, and thermal efficiency is high.
