The invention relates to a method and a
system for reducing consumption in a capturing process of CO2 through chemical absorption, belongs to the fields of energy utilization,
energy conservation and
environmental protection. Based on the common CO2 capturing process, the method comprises the following steps that: an absorbent in an absorption
tower is used for absorbing CO2 in
flue gas and forming a pregnant solution, the obtained pregnant solution is divided into two branches, the two branches of pregnant solution is subjected to CO2 separation in two regeneration towers with different pressures, and
waste heat generated during a high-pressure
desorption process of the pregnant solution is taken as a heat source of a low-pressure
desorption process; CO2 air flows mixed with
water vapor after treatment by the regeneration towers are treated by
multiple stages of gas-liquid separators, condensers and compressors, so that high-pressure liquid-
station CO2 is obtained. With the adoption of the method and the
system provided by the invention, the
heat consumption during the whole
desorption process is reduced, so that the efficient desorption of the pregnant solution flows is realized; under the premise that the capturing rate is 92%, the regenerated
energy consumption of an optimal
system obtained after improvement of the process is 37.84KJ (reduced work) / mol, and is reduced by 19.77% compared with the
energy consumption of 47.16KJ (reduced work) / mol before improvement, and therefore, a new method is provided for reducing the
energy consumption for capturing the CO2 with the low energy consumption in thermal power plants.
