[0010] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and when there are multiple embodiments, the present invention also includes configurations in which the respective embodiments are combined.

[0011] (First embodiment) Fig. 1 is a schematic block diagram of a CO2 capture system according to the first embodiment. As shown in Fig. 1, the CO2 capture system 100 according to the first embodiment includes a combustion facility 2, an exhaust gas treatment facility 3, a chimney 8, an adjustment unit V1, and a CO2 capture device 10.

[0012] (Combustion equipment) The combustion equipment 2 is a facility into which fuel F and air A are introduced and which burns the fuel F. Exhaust gas G0 produced by the combustion is discharged from the combustion equipment 2. The exhaust gas G0 is a gas containing CO2. The fuel F may be any fuel, and examples thereof include coal, natural gas, garbage, biogas, blast furnace gas, and coke oven gas. The combustion equipment 2 may be any facility that burns the fuel F.

[0013] (Exhaust gas treatment equipment) The flue gas treatment equipment 3 is equipment that treats the flue gas G0 discharged from the combustion equipment 2. The flue gas treatment equipment 3 is connected to the combustion equipment 2 via an exhaust line 2A. The flue gas G0 discharged from the combustion equipment 2 is introduced into the flue gas treatment equipment 3 through the exhaust line 2A and treated in the flue gas treatment equipment 3. The flue gas treatment equipment 3 may be equipment that performs any treatment on the flue gas G0, but preferably includes a dust collector 6. The dust collector 6 is a device that recovers solid components (soot and dust) contained in the flue gas G0. The dust collector 6 may recover the solid components (soot and dust), for example, by filtering the flue gas G0 with a filter. Note that CO2 is recovered from the flue gas G0 by the CO2 recovery device 10, and therefore the flue gas treatment equipment 3 in this embodiment may perform treatment other than recovering CO2 from the flue gas G0.

[0014] In this embodiment, the flue gas treatment equipment 3 includes a temperature reducing tower 4 that cools the flue gas G0, and a dust collector 6. The temperature reducing tower 4 is provided upstream of the dust collector 6 in the flow of the flue gas G0, in other words, it is provided between the combustion equipment 2 and the dust collector 6. The temperature reducing tower 4 is connected to a discharge line 2A, and the flue gas G0 discharged from the combustion equipment 2 is introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 from the discharge line 2A. The temperature reducing tower 4 cools the flue gas G0 by supplying (spraying in this embodiment) cooling water to the flue gas G0. The temperature reducing tower 4 and the dust collector 6 are connected via a discharge line 4A. The flue gas G0 cooled in the temperature reducing tower 4 is introduced into the dust collector 6 through the discharge line 4A, and at least a portion of the solid components are recovered in the dust collector 6.

[0015] The configuration of the exhaust gas treatment facility 3 is not limited to the above description and may be arbitrary. For example, only the dust collector 6 may be provided, or devices other than the temperature reducing tower 4 and the dust collector 6 may be provided.

[0016] (chimney) The chimney 8 is a tower that discharges the flue gas G1 treated by the flue gas treatment facility 3. The chimney 8 is connected to the flue gas treatment facility 3 via a discharge line 6A. More specifically, in this embodiment, the dust collector 6 and the chimney 8 are connected via the discharge line 6A. The flue gas G1, from which solid components have been removed in the dust collector 6, is introduced into the chimney 8 through the discharge line 6A and discharged from the chimney 8.

[0017] The CO2 recovery system 100 may be provided with a power generation facility that generates electricity using the exhaust gas as a power source. The power generation facility may be provided, for example, between the combustion facility 2 and the exhaust gas treatment facility 3.

[0018] (CO2 capture equipment) The CO2 recovery apparatus 10 is an apparatus that recovers CO2 from flue gas G0 discharged from the combustion equipment 2. More specifically, the CO2 recovery apparatus 10 receives the flue gas G0 discharged from the combustion equipment 2 and brings the flue gas G0 into contact with a CO2 absorbing solution S1 to remove CO2 from the flue gas G0. The CO2 recovery apparatus 10 is connected to the combustion equipment 2 via an flue gas introduction line 6B. In this embodiment, the flue gas introduction line 6B branches off from the discharge line 6A and is connected to the discharge line 6A and the CO2 recovery apparatus 10. That is, in this embodiment, the CO2 recovery apparatus 10 can be said to be connected to the flue gas treatment equipment 3 via the flue gas introduction line 6B. Therefore, the flue gas G1 that has been treated in the flue gas treatment equipment 3 is introduced into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10.

[0019] The exhaust gas introduction line 6B is provided with an adjustment unit V1 that adjusts the flow rate of the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10. In this embodiment, the adjustment unit V1 is an openable and closable valve that introduces the exhaust gas G1 into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10 when in an open state and stops the introduction of the exhaust gas G1 into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10 when in a closed state. The adjustment unit V1 can adjust the flow rate of the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10 by adjusting the opening degree. The adjustment unit V1 may be controlled by a control unit 40, which will be described later. Note that the adjustment unit V1 is not limited to a valve and may be any mechanism that can adjust the flow rate of the exhaust gas G1.

[0020] The CO2 recovery apparatus 10 will now be described in detail. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a CO2 recovery apparatus according to a first embodiment. As shown in Fig. 2, the CO2 recovery apparatus 10 includes an exhaust gas cooling device 14, a CO2 absorption tower 16, and a regeneration tower 18.

[0021] (Exhaust gas cooling device) The exhaust gas cooling device 14 is a device that cools the exhaust gas G1 using cooling water W, and may also be called an exhaust gas cooling tower. The exhaust gas cooling device 14 is connected to an exhaust gas introduction line 6B, and the exhaust gas G0 discharged from the combustion equipment 2 (in this embodiment, the exhaust gas G1 treated in the exhaust gas treatment equipment 3) is introduced from the exhaust gas introduction line 6B. In this embodiment, a blower B0 is installed in the exhaust gas introduction line 6B, and the exhaust gas G1 pressurized by the blower B0 is introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14.

[0022] A cooled exhaust gas introduction line 14A and a cooling line 14B are connected to the exhaust gas cooling device 14. The cooling line 14B is a pipe that circulates cooling water W inside the exhaust gas cooling device 14. A pump P1 and a cooler CW1 are provided in the cooling line 14B. In this embodiment, the cooling water W is circulated by driving the pump P1. In the cooling line 14B, the cooling water W is cooled by the cooler CW1 and then supplied into the exhaust gas cooling device 14, and comes into contact with the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14, thereby cooling the exhaust gas G1 to a predetermined temperature. After cooling the exhaust gas G1 inside the exhaust gas cooling device 14, the cooling water W is returned from the exhaust gas cooling device 14 to the cooling line 14B.

[0023] (CO2 absorption tower) The CO2 absorber 16 is equipment that removes CO2 from the flue gas by bringing the flue gas into contact with a CO2 absorbing solution S1. The CO2 absorber 16 is provided downstream of the flue gas cooler 14 in the flow direction of the flue gas G. The CO2 absorber 16 is connected to the flue gas cooler 14 via a cooled flue gas introduction line 14A. The flue gas G2, which is the flue gas G1 cooled in the flue gas cooler 14, is introduced into the CO2 absorber 16 through the cooled flue gas introduction line 14A. That is, in this embodiment, the CO2 absorber 16 removes CO2 from the flue gas G2 cooled in the flue gas cooler 14.

[0024] The CO2 absorber 16 includes a CO2 capture section 16A and a scrubbing section 16B. In the CO2 capture section 16A, CO2 in the flue gas G2 is removed by a CO2 absorbing solution S1. In the CO2 capture section 16A, the CO2 absorbing solution S1 is supplied, and the flue gas G2 passing through the CO2 capture section 16A comes into countercurrent contact with the CO2 absorbing solution S1. The CO2 in the flue gas G2 is absorbed by the CO2 absorbing solution S1 through a chemical reaction. The decarbonated gas G3, which is the flue gas G2 from which CO2 has been removed in the CO2 capture section 16A, is washed with a washing solution W2 in the scrubbing section 16B, which is installed above the downstream side of the gas flow of the CO2 capture section 16A. In the scrubbing section 16B, the washing solution W2 supplied from a nozzle comes into gas-liquid contact with the decarbonated gas G3, and the CO2 absorbing solution S1 (a component of the CO2 absorbing solution S1) entrained in the decarbonated gas G3 is recovered. More specifically, a cleaning water circulation line 16D is connected to the cleaning unit 16B, and a cleaning liquid W2 is circulated by a pump P2 installed in the cleaning water circulation line 16D. The cleaning liquid W2 is cooled by a cooler CW2 installed in the cleaning water circulation line 16D and then supplied into the cleaning unit 16B, where it cools and cleans the decarbonated gas G3 passing through it to a predetermined temperature. In this way, the cleaning unit 16B cleans the mist-like CO2 absorbing solution S1 (a component of the CO2 absorbing solution S1) entrained in the decarbonated gas G3 with the cleaning liquid W2, thereby preventing the CO2 absorbing solution entrained in the decarbonated gas G3 from being discharged and reducing emissions. The temperature to which the decarbonated gas G3 is cooled may be substantially the same as the introduction temperature of the flue gas G2 when introduced into the CO2 absorber 16, thereby maintaining the water balance within the system. For example, if the moisture content of the exhaust gas G2 introduced into the CO2 absorber 16 is 10 wt%, the cooling temperature may be adjusted so that the decarbonated gas G3 discharged from the top of the CO2 absorber 16 also has a moisture content of 10 wt%.

[0025] The CO2 absorption tower 16 is connected to the discharge line 6A via a decarbonated gas introduction line 16E. The decarbonated gas G3 is discharged from the chimney 8 through the decarbonated gas introduction line 16E and the discharge line 6A.

[0026] The CO2-absorbing solution S1 is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include amine compounds such as alkanolamines and hindered amines having an alcoholic hydroxyl group. Examples of such alkanolamines include monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, methyldiethanolamine, diisopropanolamine, and diglycolamine, with monoethanolamine (MEA) being generally preferred. Examples of hindered amines having an alcoholic hydroxyl group include 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), 2-(ethylamino)-ethanol (EAE), 2-(methylamino)-ethanol (MAE), and 2-(diethylamino)-ethanol (DEAE).

[0027] The rich solution S2, which is the CO2 absorbing solution S1 that has absorbed CO2 in the flue gas G2, accumulates at the bottom of the CO2 absorption tower 16. The CO2 absorption tower 16 and the regeneration tower 18 are connected to a rich solution introduction line 16C that discharges the rich solution S2 from the bottom of the CO2 absorption tower 16 and introduces the rich solution S2 into the regeneration tower 18, and a lean solution introduction line 18A that discharges the CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) from the bottom of the regeneration tower 18 and introduces it into the CO2 absorption tower 16. A heat exchanger CW3 is interposed at the intersection of the rich solution introduction line 16C and the lean solution introduction line 18A. In this heat exchanger CW3, the rich solution S2 is heated by the CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) regenerated in the regeneration tower 18, and is supplied to the regeneration tower 18. In addition, between the heat exchanger CW3 and the CO2 absorption tower 16, there are interposed a pump P3 that pressurizes the CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) and a cooler CW4 that cools the CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) with cooling water. The CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) regenerated in the regeneration tower 18 passes through a lean solution introduction line 18A, is pressurized and cooled, and then is supplied into the CO2 absorption tower 16.

[0028] (Regeneration Tower) The regenerator 18 absorbs CO2 from the rich solution S2 that has absorbed CO2 in the flue gas G2 in the CO2 absorption tower 16, thereby regenerating a CO2 absorbing solution S1. A reboiler CW5 is provided on the bottom side of the regenerator 18 and is installed in the reboiler line 18C. In this reboiler CW5, when a portion of the CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) is circulated in the reboiler line 18C, the reboiler CW5 indirectly heats the CO2 absorbing solution S1 with saturated steam B, and introduces the steam into the regenerator 18. The reboiler CW5 is provided with a saturated steam introduction line 18D that introduces saturated steam B. A separation drum 26 is installed in this saturated steam introduction line 18D, and steam condensate WB is separated.

[0029] The rich solution S2 generated in the CO2 absorption tower 16 is introduced into the regeneration tower 18 through a rich solution introduction line 16C. A booster pump P4 is installed in the rich solution introduction line 16C, and the rich solution S2 is pressurized by the booster pump P4 and heated by the CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) regenerated in the regeneration tower 18 through a heat exchanger CW3. The rich solution S2 is then supplied to the regeneration tower 18. The rich solution S2 released into the regeneration tower 18 from the upper side undergoes an endothermic reaction with steam supplied from the bottom, desorbing and releasing most of the CO2. The CO2 absorbing solution from which some or most of the CO2 has been released in the regeneration tower 18 is referred to as a semi-lean solution. By the time this semi-lean solution reaches the bottom of the regeneration tower 18, it has become a CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) from which almost all of the CO2 has been removed. A part of this CO2 absorbing solution S1 (lean solution) is heated by saturated steam B in the reboiler CW5, and supplies steam for CO2 desorption into the regenerator 18.

[0030] Meanwhile, a gas discharge line 18B is connected to the top of the regeneration tower 18, which discharges CO2-accompanied gas accompanied by water vapor released from the rich solution S2 and semi-lean solution inside the tower. This gas discharge line 18B is provided with a cooler CW6 that cools the CO2-accompanied gas accompanied by water vapor, and a reflux water drum 28 that flashes the cooled CO2-accompanied gas to separate it into gas and liquid. The reflux water separated and refluxed from the CO2-accompanied gas accompanied by water vapor in the reflux water drum 28 is supplied to the top of the regeneration tower 18 by a reflux water circulation pump P5 installed in the reflux water line 18E.

[0031] A separated gas discharge line 18F is connected to the top of the reflux water drum 28, and discharges CO2 gas C, which is a CO2-associated gas separated from the reflux water. The CO2 gas C discharged from this separated gas discharge line 18F is, for example, compressed and recovered. The CO2 gas C is sent to a destination, and may be used, for example, to grow plants in a plant factory, to synthesize chemicals, or to be injected into an oil field using enhanced oil recovery (EOR), or to be stored in an aquifer.

[0032] The CO2 recovery device 10 has the above-described configuration.

[0033] (cooling water discharge) As described above, the exhaust gas cooling device 14 cools the exhaust gas G1 by bringing the cooling water W into contact with the exhaust gas G1. Therefore, moisture in the exhaust gas G1 condenses to form condensed water, which is entrained in the cooling water W, and the flow rate of the cooling water W may increase. In the present embodiment, by introducing at least a portion of the cooling water W to the supply point P, which is a location upstream of the dust collector 6 in the flow of the exhaust gas G0, it is possible to suppress an excessive flow rate of the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14, and to appropriately treat the excess cooling water W as wastewater.

[0034] The configuration for discharging the cooling water W will be specifically described. Fig. 3 is a schematic block diagram of the CO2 capture system according to the first embodiment. As shown in Fig. 3, the CO2 capture system 100 has a cooling water introduction line 10A, an addition unit 30, a supply unit 32, a control unit 40, and sensors T1 and T2.

[0035] (Cooling water inlet line) The cooling water introduction line 10A is a pipe that connects the exhaust gas cooling device 14 and the supply point P. In the example of this embodiment, the cooling water introduction line 10A is connected to the cooling line 14B, and is connected to the exhaust gas cooling device 14 via the cooling line 14B. However, the cooling water introduction line 10A may be connected directly to the exhaust gas cooling device 14 without via the cooling line 14B. Cooling water W1 (wastewater), which is a part of the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14, is introduced into the cooling water introduction line 10A and introduced to the supply point P through the cooling water introduction line 10A.

[0036] The supply point P to which the cooling water introduction line 10A is connected may be any point upstream of the dust collector 6 in the flow of the flue gas G0, and the number of supply points P may be one or more. In the example of this embodiment, the combustion equipment 2 and the temperature reducing tower 4 serve as the supply point P. That is, in the example of this embodiment, the cooling water introduction line 10A is connected to the combustion equipment 2 and the temperature reducing tower 4. The cooling water introduction line 10A branches into cooling water introduction lines 10A1 and 10A2, and the cooling water introduction line 10A1 is connected to the combustion equipment 2, and the cooling water introduction line 10A2 is connected to the temperature reducing tower 4. That is, the flue gas cooling device 14 (cooling line 14B) and the combustion equipment 2 are connected via the cooling water introduction lines 10A and 10A1, and the cooling water W1 in the flue gas cooling device 14 (cooling line 14B) is introduced into the combustion equipment 2 through the cooling water introduction lines 10A and 10A1. The cooling water W1 introduced into the combustion equipment 2 is evaporated by being heated within the combustion equipment 2. By supplying the cooling water W1 to the combustion equipment 2, the combustion temperature within the combustion equipment 2 is adjusted. For example, a thermometer such as a thermocouple is installed within the combustion equipment, and the amount of NOx generated can be suppressed by keeping the combustion gas temperature in the high-temperature part within the combustion equipment at 1400°C or less. Note that the connection point of the cooling water introduction line 10A1 in the combustion equipment 2 (i.e., supply point P) may be any position.

[0037] The exhaust gas cooling device 14 (cooling line 14B) and the temperature reducing tower 4 are connected via cooling water introduction lines 10A and 10A2, and the cooling water W1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 (cooling line 14B) is introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 through the cooling water introduction lines 10A and 10A2. The cooling water W1 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 is treated in the temperature reducing tower 4. Specifically, the cooling water W introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 is sprayed toward the exhaust gas G0 in the temperature reducing tower 4, thereby reducing the temperature of the exhaust gas G0.

[0038] In the above description, the cooling water W1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 is supplied to both the combustion equipment 2 and the temperature reducing tower 4, but this is not limiting and the cooling water W1 may be supplied to either the combustion equipment 2 or the temperature reducing tower 4. For example, when the cooling water W1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 is supplied only to the combustion equipment 2, the cooling water introduction line 10A2 may not be provided, and the cooling water introduction line 10A may connect the exhaust gas cooling device 14 (cooling line 14B) and the combustion equipment 2. Furthermore, when the cooling water W1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 is supplied only to the temperature reducing tower 4, the cooling water introduction line 10A may not be provided, and the cooling water introduction line 10A may connect the exhaust gas cooling device 14 (cooling line 14B) and the temperature reducing tower 4.

[0039] Note that the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 is accompanied by condensed water of the exhaust gas G1, and therefore the flow rate of the cooling water W increases by the amount of the condensed water of the exhaust gas G1. Since the cooling water W1 is a portion of the cooling water W extracted, it can be said to contain condensed water of the exhaust gas G1. Furthermore, since the cooling water introduction line 10A is not provided with a mechanism for treating the cooling water W1, the cooling water W1 containing condensed water of the exhaust gas G1 and not having undergone water treatment may be supplied to the supply point P. Here, water treatment refers to, for example, treatment to remove foreign matter from the cooling water W1 or to clarify the cooling water W1.

[0040] The flow rate of the cooling water W1 supplied to the supply point P (in this embodiment, the combustion equipment 2 and the cooling tower 4) through the cooling water introduction line 10A may be any flow rate. However, it is preferable that the flow rate of the cooling water W1 is set to an amount corresponding to the increased flow rate of the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 (an amount within a predetermined range with respect to the increased flow rate). Furthermore, in this embodiment, the flow rate of the cooling water W1 is set to an amount corresponding to the increased flow rate of the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14. In other words, it can be said that the flow rate of the cooling water W1 corresponds to the flow rate of condensed water of the exhaust gas G1 entrained in the cooling water W (i.e., the flow rate of condensed water generated in the exhaust gas cooling device 14). Therefore, in this embodiment, the cooling water W1 is supplied to the supply point P by an amount corresponding to the increased flow rate in the exhaust gas cooling device 14. The flow rate of the cooling water W1 may be adjusted by any method so as to match the increased flow rate of the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14. For example, the opening degree of an on-off valve or the like may be adjusted so as to keep constant the amount of cooling water W returned from the cooling line 14B to the exhaust gas cooling device 14. In this case, the cooling water W corresponding to the increased flow rate in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 is not returned to the exhaust gas cooling device 14 but is led out to the cooling water introduction line 10A as cooling water W1.

[0041] (Additional part) The addition unit 30 is a device that adds a pH adjuster M1 to the cooling water W. The pH adjuster M1 is an agent that adjusts the pH of the cooling water W, and in this embodiment, is an alkaline agent that increases the pH of the cooling water W. An example of the pH adjuster M1 is a sodium hydroxide solution. The addition unit 30 is connected to the cooling line 14B via an inlet line 30A. The pH adjuster M1 from the addition unit 30 is added to the cooling water W flowing through the inlet line 30A and the cooling line 14B. This adjusts the pH of the cooling water W, and also adjusts the pH of the cooling water W1, which is a part of the cooling water W. Note that the addition unit 30 is not limited to being connected to the cooling line 14B, and may be connected directly to the exhaust gas cooling device 14 or to the cooling water inlet line 10A, for example. When the addition unit 30 is connected to the cooling water inlet line 10A, the pH adjuster M1 is added to the cooling water W1.

[0042] The inlet line 30A may be provided with an adjustment unit V2 that adjusts the amount of pH adjuster M1 added to the cooling water W. In this embodiment, the adjustment unit V2 is an openable and closable valve that adds the pH adjuster M1 to the cooling water W when opened and stops adding the pH adjuster M1 to the cooling water W when closed. The adjustment unit V2 can adjust the amount of pH adjuster M1 added by adjusting the opening degree. The adjustment unit V2 may be controlled by the control unit 40, which will be described later. The adjustment unit V2 is not limited to a valve and may be any mechanism that can adjust the amount of pH adjuster M1 added.

[0043] (Supply Department) The supply unit 32 is a device that supplies the acid gas removing agent M2 to the flue gas G0. The acid gas removing agent M2 is an agent that removes at least a portion of the acid gases contained in the flue gas G0. The acid gas removing agent M2 may be the same as the pH adjuster M1. The supply unit 32 is connected to the discharge line 4A via an inlet line 32A. The acid gas removing agent M2 from the supply unit 32 is supplied through the inlet line 32A to the flue gas G0 flowing through the discharge line 4A. This removes at least a portion of the acid gases contained in the flue gas G0. The supply unit 32 is not limited to being connected to the discharge line 4A (i.e., between the cooling tower 4 and the dust collector 6), but may be connected to any location downstream of the combustion equipment 2 in the flow of the flue gas G0, more specifically, to any location between the combustion equipment 2 and the chimney 8. The supply unit 32 may also supply a carrier gas (e.g., air) for supplying the acid gas removing agent M2 together with the acid gas removing agent M2.

[0044] The inlet line 32A may be provided with an adjustment unit V3 that adjusts the supply of the acid gas removing agent M2 to the flue gas G0. In this embodiment, the adjustment unit V3 is an openable valve that supplies the acid gas removing agent M2 to the flue gas G0 when opened and stops the supply of the acid gas removing agent M2 to the flue gas G0 when closed. The adjustment unit V3 can adjust the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 by adjusting its opening. The adjustment unit V3 may be controlled by a control unit 40, which will be described later. The adjustment unit V3 is not limited to a valve and may be any mechanism that can adjust the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2. The adjustment unit V3 is not an essential component and may not be included in the CO2 capture system 100.

[0045] (Control unit) The control unit 40 may be a computer including an arithmetic circuit such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The control unit 40 reads a program (software) from a storage unit (not shown) and controls each part of the CO2 recovery system 100, such as controlling the flow rate of the exhaust gas G1.

[0046] In this embodiment, the control unit 40 controls the adjustment unit V1, which controls the flow rate of the flue gas G1 introduced into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10. The control unit 40 may adjust the flow rate of the flue gas G1 introduced into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10, for example, in accordance with the combustion state in the combustion equipment 2. The combustion state here refers to the degree of combustion in the combustion equipment 2, and may be, for example, the combustion amount or the combustion temperature. In this case, the control unit 40 may increase the flow rate of the flue gas G1 introduced into the CO2 recovery apparatus 10 as the combustion amount in the combustion equipment 2 increases (for example, as the heat value per unit amount of fuel F increases).

[0047] The control unit 40 controls the adjustment unit V2, which controls the amount of pH adjuster M1 added to the coolant W. For example, the control unit 40 controls the amount of pH adjuster M1 added to the coolant W based on at least one of the pH of the coolant W1 and the flow rate of the coolant W1 so that the pH of the coolant W and W1 is within a predetermined range. In this embodiment, a sensor T1 that measures the pH of the coolant W1 and the flow rate of the coolant W1 is provided in the coolant inlet line 10A, and the control unit 40 controls the amount of pH adjuster M1 added to the coolant W based on the pH and flow rate of the coolant W1 measured by the sensor T1 so that the pH of the coolant W is within a predetermined range. This predetermined range may be any range, for example, a pH range of 5 to 8. Note that, although the sensor T1 is provided in the coolant inlet line 10A in this embodiment, the location of the sensor T1 is not limited thereto and the sensor T1 may be provided at any location that can measure the flow rate of the coolant W or the coolant W1. Furthermore, the control unit 40 is not limited to controlling the amount of pH adjuster M1 added based on the measurement results of the sensor T1, and may control the amount of pH adjuster M1 added by any method. For example, the control unit 40 may keep the amount of pH adjuster M1 added constant, or may control the amount of pH adjuster M1 added based on the amount of exhaust gas G1 flowing into the exhaust gas cooling device 14.

[0048] The control unit 40 controls the adjustment unit V3 to control the supply amount of the acid-gas removing agent M2 to the flue gas G0. For example, the control unit 40 controls the supply amount of the acid-gas removing agent M2 to the flue gas G0 based on the amount of impurities in the flue gas G1 downstream of the connection point of the supply unit 32 in the flow direction of the flue gas G0, so that the amount of impurities contained in the flue gas G1 falls within a predetermined range. In this embodiment, a sensor T2 that measures the amount of impurities contained in the flue gas G1 is provided downstream of the connection point of the supply unit 32 (here, downstream of the dust collector 6), and the control unit 40 controls the supply amount of the acid-gas removing agent M2 based on the amount of impurities measured by the sensor T2 so that the amount of impurities contained in the flue gas G1 falls within a predetermined range. The impurities here include, for example, HCl and SOx, and the predetermined range here may be any value.

[0049] The control unit 40 is not limited to controlling the supply amount of the acid-gas-removing agent M2 based on the measurement result of the sensor T2, and may control the supply amount of the acid-gas-removing agent M2 by any method. For example, the control unit 40 may keep the supply amount of the acid-gas-removing agent M2 constant, or may control the supply amount of the acid-gas-removing agent M2 based on at least one of the pH of the cooling water W1 and the flow rate of the cooling water W1.

[0050] FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a method for setting the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent. An example of setting the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 based on the pH and flow rate of the cooling water W1 will be described below. Here, since the example is a case in which the cooling water W1 is introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4, the flow rate of the cooling water W1 refers to the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4. As shown in FIG. 4, the control unit 40 acquires the measurement results of the flow rate and pH of the cooling water W1 by the sensor T1 (step S10). The control unit 40 calculates the effective concentration of the cooling water W1 based on the pH of the cooling water W1 measured by the sensor T1 (step S12). The effective concentration here refers to the concentration (kg / L) in the cooling water W1 of an active ingredient capable of removing acid gases from the flue gas G0. The active ingredient capable of removing acid gases from the flue gas G0 may be, for example, an alkaline ingredient. The control unit 40 may calculate the effective concentration of the cooling water W1 using any method based on the pH of the cooling water W1. For example, a correspondence relationship between pH and effective concentration may be set in advance, and the control unit 40 may calculate the effective concentration of the cooling water W1 by substituting the measurement result of the pH of the cooling water W1 into the set correspondence relationship.

[0051] The control unit 40 calculates the effective content of the cooling water W1 based on the measurement results of the effective concentration of the cooling water W1 and the flow rate of the cooling water W1 (step S14). The effective content refers to the amount of active ingredients contained in the cooling water W1 supplied to the supply point P (here, the cooling tower 4) that can remove acid gases from the flue gas G0. The control unit 40 calculates the effective content by, for example, multiplying the effective concentration of the cooling water W1 by the flow rate of the cooling water W1.

[0052] The control unit 40 calculates the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 based on the required supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 and the effective flow rate of the cooling water W1 (step S16). The required supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 refers to the amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 required to remove a desired amount of acid gas from the flue gas G0, assuming that the cooling water W1 is not supplied to the flue gas G0. The control unit 40 may determine the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 to be a value obtained by subtracting the effective flow rate of the cooling water W1 from the required supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2. The control unit 40 controls the adjustment unit V3 so that the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 becomes the calculated supply amount.

[0053] The control unit 40 may calculate the required supply amount based on the amount of impurities in the flue gas G0 before the acid gas removing agent M2 and the cooling water W1 are supplied. In this case, for example, a sensor T2 is provided at a point where the supply unit 32 is connected and upstream of the temperature reducing tower 4, and the control unit 40 acquires the amount of impurities in the flue gas G0 measured by the sensor T2. However, the method of acquiring the required supply amount is not limited to this and may be arbitrary. For example, the required supply amount may be calculated based on the flow rate of the flue gas G0, or the required supply amount may be a constant value.

[0054] (effect) As described above, in the first embodiment, the cooling water W1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 is introduced to the supply point P, such as the combustion equipment 2 or the temperature reducing tower 4. This prevents the flow rate of the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 from becoming excessive. Furthermore, since the cooling water W1 is treated in the combustion equipment 2 or the temperature reducing tower 4, the cooling water W1 can be appropriately treated. Furthermore, for example, the cooling water W1 can be appropriately treated without a dedicated facility for treating the cooling water W1. Furthermore, when the cooling water W1 is supplied to the temperature reducing tower 4, the active ingredient (a component capable of removing acid gases from the exhaust gas G0) contained in the cooling water W1 can remove acid gases from the exhaust gas G0, thereby reducing the supply amount of the acid gas removing agent M2. Furthermore, when the acid gas removing agent M2 is supplied using a carrier gas, reducing the amount of the acid gas removing agent M2 can also reduce the amount of carrier gas. This improves the CO2 concentration in the flue gas G1 drawn into the CO2 recovery device 10 and improves the efficiency of CO2 recovery.

[0055] (Second embodiment) Next, a second embodiment will be described. The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that adjustment units V4 and V5 are provided to control the amount of cooling water W1 introduced. Explanations of the configurations of the second embodiment common to the first embodiment will be omitted.

[0056] FIG. 5A is a schematic block diagram of a CO2 capture system according to a second embodiment. In the second embodiment, an adjustment unit that adjusts the supply amount of cooling water W1 to the supply point P is provided in the cooling water introduction line 10A. Specifically, an adjustment unit V4 is provided in the cooling water introduction line 10A1. In this embodiment, the adjustment unit V4 is an openable and closable valve that introduces the cooling water W1 into the combustion equipment 2 when opened and stops the introduction of the cooling water W1 into the combustion equipment 2 when closed. The adjustment unit V4 can adjust the opening degree to adjust the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the combustion equipment 2. The adjustment unit V4 may be controlled by a control unit 40. The control unit 40 controls the adjustment unit V4 to control the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the combustion equipment 2 by the adjustment unit V4. The control unit 40 may adjust the flow rate of the cooling water W1 according to, for example, the combustion state of the combustion equipment 2. In this case, for example, the control unit 40 may increase the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the combustion equipment 2 as the combustion amount in the combustion equipment 2 increases (e.g., as the amount of introduced fuel F increases). Also, for example, the control unit 40 may increase the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the combustion equipment 2 as the combustion temperature in the combustion equipment 2 increases. Also, for example, the control unit 40 may maintain the flow rate of the cooling water W1 at a predetermined value when the combustion temperature of the combustion equipment 2 is equal to or lower than a predetermined threshold, and may increase the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the combustion equipment 2 above the predetermined value when the combustion temperature of the combustion equipment 2 exceeds the threshold. The adjustment unit V4 is not limited to a valve and may be any mechanism capable of adjusting the supply amount of the cooling water W1. The combustion state in the combustion equipment 2 may be acquired by any method, for example, by a sensor that detects the combustion state.

[0057] An adjustment unit V5 is provided in the cooling water introduction line 10A2. In this embodiment, the adjustment unit V5 is an openable valve that introduces the cooling water W1 into the temperature reducing tower 4 when opened and stops the introduction of the cooling water W1 into the temperature reducing tower 4 when closed. The adjustment unit V5 can adjust the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 by adjusting its opening. The adjustment unit V5 may be controlled by the control unit 40. The control unit 40 controls the adjustment unit V5 to control the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 using the adjustment unit V5. The control unit 40 may adjust the flow rate of the cooling water W1 in accordance with at least one of the flow rate and temperature of the flue gas G0 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4, for example. In this case, for example, the control unit 40 may increase the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 as the amount of flue gas G0 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 increases. Furthermore, for example, the control unit 40 may increase the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 as the temperature of the flue gas G0 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 increases. Furthermore, for example, the control unit 40 may maintain the flow rate of the cooling water W1 at a predetermined value when the temperature of the flue gas G0 is equal to or lower than a predetermined threshold, and may increase the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the temperature reducing tower 4 above the predetermined value when the temperature of the flue gas G0 exceeds the threshold. Note that the adjustment unit V5 is not limited to a valve and may be any mechanism capable of adjusting the supply amount of the cooling water W1. Furthermore, the flow rate and temperature of the flue gas G0 may be acquired by any method, for example, by a sensor that detects the flow rate and temperature of the flue gas G0.

[0058] The control unit 40 may prioritize the supply of cooling water W1 to the combustion equipment 2 over the supply of cooling water W1 to the temperature reducing tower 4. That is, for example, when the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the cooling water inlet line 10A (i.e., the flow rate of the cooling water W increased in the exhaust gas cooler 14) is less than the total value of the required flow rates of the cooling water W1 in the combustion equipment 2 and the temperature reducing tower 4, the control unit 40 may adjust the supply flow rates to the combustion equipment 2 and the temperature reducing tower 4 so that the supply flow rate to the combustion equipment 2 is closer to the required flow rate than the supply flow rate to the temperature reducing tower 4. In other words, the control unit 40 may adjust the supply flow rates to the combustion equipment 2 and the temperature reducing tower 4 so that the value obtained by subtracting the supply flow rate from the required flow rate of the combustion equipment 2 is smaller than the value obtained by subtracting the supply flow rate from the required flow rate of the temperature reducing tower 4.

[0059] In the second embodiment, the cooling water W1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 may be supplied to either the combustion equipment 2 or the cooling tower 4, as in the first embodiment.

[0060] In the second embodiment, the supply amount of cooling water W1 is controlled based on the degree of combustion of the combustion equipment 2, the flow rate and temperature of the exhaust gas G0, etc., so that the exhaust gas can be appropriately treated while also appropriately treating the cooling water W1.

[0061] FIG. 5B is a schematic block diagram of a CO2 capture system according to another example of the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 5B, a buffer tank BT may be provided in the cooling water introduction line 10A to temporarily store the cooling water W1 corresponding to the increased flow rate in the exhaust gas cooling device 14. By providing the buffer tank BT, an increase in the cooling water W1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 can be more effectively suppressed. In this case, for example, the cooling water W1 is introduced into the buffer tank BT from a cooling water introduction line 10AA, which is a portion of the cooling water introduction line 10A upstream of the buffer tank BT, and the cooling water W1 is stored in the buffer tank BT. In addition, in the example of FIG. 5B, a cooling water introduction line 10AB, which is a portion of the cooling water introduction line 10A downstream of the buffer tank BT, is connected to the bottom of the buffer tank BT. A pump P6, which is a mechanism for adjusting the flow rate in the buffer tank BT, is provided in the cooling water introduction line 10AB. The control unit 40 controls the pump P6 to direct the cooling water W1 stored in the buffer tank BT through the cooling water inlet line 10AB to the cooling water inlet lines 10A1 and 10A2. This adjusts the flow rate in the buffer tank BT. Note that the connection point of the cooling water inlet line 10AB is not limited to the bottom surface of the buffer tank BT and may be any other location. Also, the pump P6 is not an essential component, and any device other than a pump that adjusts the flow rate in the buffer tank BT may be provided.

[0062] (Third embodiment) Next, a third embodiment will be described. The third embodiment differs from the second embodiment in that the flow rate of the cooling water W1 supplied to the cooling water introduction line 10A is controlled. In the third embodiment, explanations of parts that are common to the second embodiment will be omitted. Note that the third embodiment can also be applied to the first embodiment.

[0063] 6 is a schematic block diagram of a CO2 capture system according to a third embodiment. As described above, cooling water W1 is introduced into the cooling water introduction line 10A at an amount corresponding to the increased flow rate of the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14. In the third embodiment, the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the cooling water introduction line 10A is adjusted by adjusting the increase in the cooling water W in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 according to the required flow rate of the cooling water W1 to be introduced into the supply point P. Specifically, the control unit 40 controls the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 based on the required flow rate of the cooling water W1 to be introduced into the supply point P, thereby adjusting the temperature of the exhaust gas G1 discharged from the exhaust gas cooling device 14 (hereinafter referred to as the exhaust gas outlet temperature). When the exhaust gas outlet temperature changes, the amount of temperature drop of the exhaust gas G1 in the exhaust gas cooling device 14 (the difference between the exhaust gas outlet temperature and the exhaust gas temperature at the inlet of the exhaust gas cooling device 14) changes, and the amount of condensed water in the exhaust gas G1 changes, and the flow rate of the cooling water W1 introduced into the cooling water introduction line 10A also changes.

[0064] The operating condition of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 for adjusting the exhaust gas outlet temperature may be at least one of the temperature of the cooling water W brought into contact with the exhaust gas G1 (the cooling water W returned to the exhaust gas cooling device 14) and the flow rate per unit time of the cooling water W brought into contact with the exhaust gas G1. In this embodiment, the operating condition is the temperature of the cooling water W brought into contact with the exhaust gas G1. The exhaust gas outlet temperature can be appropriately changed by changing the temperature of the cooling water W or the flow rate per unit time. The control unit 40 controls the temperature of the cooling water W, for example, by controlling the cooler CW1. Furthermore, for example, the control unit 40 controls the flow rate per unit time of the cooling water W returned to the exhaust gas cooling device 14 by adjusting the opening of a valve (not shown) provided in the cooling line 14B for adjusting the flow rate of the cooling water W. Note that the operating condition for adjusting the exhaust gas outlet temperature is not limited to these and may be any parameter that can change the exhaust gas outlet temperature.

[0065] In this embodiment, the control unit 40 controls the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 based on the actual supply amount of the cooling water W1 and the required flow rate of the cooling water. The actual supply amount of the cooling water W1 is the flow rate of the cooling water W1 actually introduced into the cooling water introduction line 10A, and the required supply amount of the cooling water is the flow rate of the cooling water to be supplied to the supply point P (here, the combustion equipment 2 or the cooling tower 4). A specific control flow of the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 will be described below.

[0066] FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a control flow of operating conditions according to the third embodiment. As shown in FIG. 7, the control unit 40 acquires the required supply amount of cooling water and the actual supply amount of cooling water W1 (step S20). The control unit 40 may acquire the required supply amount using any method. For example, the control unit 40 may calculate the required supply amount based on the combustion state of the combustion equipment 2, the flow rate of the flue gas G0 introduced into the cooling tower 4, the temperature of the flue gas G0 introduced into the cooling tower 4, etc. Alternatively, for example, the required supply amount may be set in advance, and the control unit 40 may acquire information about the preset required supply amount. The control unit 40 may acquire the actual supply amount using any method. For example, the control unit 40 acquires information about the supply amount of cooling water W1 measured by the sensor T1 as the actual supply amount.

[0067] The control unit 40 calculates the required supply amount of the cooling water W1 based on the required supply amount of the cooling water and the supply amount of the cooling water from the other equipment (step S22). The supply amount of the cooling water from the other equipment refers to the amount of cooling water supplied to the supply point P from equipment other than the exhaust gas cooling device 14. The control unit 40 may acquire the supply amount of the cooling water from the other equipment by any method, and may, for example, acquire information on the supply amount of the cooling water from the other equipment that has been set in advance. The required supply amount of the cooling water W1 refers to the flow rate of the cooling water W1 to be supplied to the supply point P. The control unit 40 calculates the required supply amount of the cooling water W1 as the value obtained by subtracting the supply amount of the cooling water from the other equipment from the required supply amount of the cooling water. Note that when cooling water is not supplied to the supply point P from the other equipment, the required supply amount of the cooling water becomes the required supply amount of the cooling water W1.

[0068] The control unit 40 determines whether the difference between the actual supply rate of the cooling water W1 and the required supply rate of the cooling water W1 is within a predetermined range (step S24). The predetermined range may be set arbitrarily. If the difference between the actual supply rate of the cooling water W1 and the required supply rate is not within the predetermined range (step S24; No), i.e., if the difference is outside the predetermined range, the control unit 40 adjusts the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 by a predetermined amount (step S26). For example, if the actual supply rate is smaller than the required supply rate, the control unit 40 controls the temperature of the cooling water W that is brought into contact with the exhaust gas G1 to decrease by a predetermined value or controls the flow rate per unit time of the cooling water W that is brought into contact with the exhaust gas G1 to increase by a predetermined value. By lowering the temperature of the cooling water W or increasing the flow rate per unit time, the exhaust gas outlet temperature decreases and the actual supply rate increases, thereby reducing the difference between the actual supply rate and the required supply rate. On the other hand, if the actual supply amount is greater than the required supply amount, the control unit 40 controls the temperature of the cooling water W that is brought into contact with the exhaust gas G1 to increase by a predetermined value, or controls the flow rate per unit time of the cooling water W that is brought into contact with the exhaust gas G1 to decrease by a predetermined value. By increasing the temperature of the cooling water W or decreasing the flow rate per unit time, the exhaust gas outlet temperature increases and the actual supply amount decreases, so the difference between the actual supply amount and the required supply amount can be reduced. After executing step S26, the process returns to step S24, and this process is continued until the difference between the actual supply amount and the required supply amount becomes equal to or less than the threshold value.

[0069] On the other hand, if the difference between the actual supply amount and the requested supply amount is within a predetermined range (step S24; Yes), proceed to step S28, and if this processing is to be terminated (step S28; Yes), terminate this processing; if not (step S28; No), return to step S20 and continue this processing.

[0070] FIG. 8 is a schematic block diagram of a CO2 capture system according to another example of the third embodiment, and FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating a control flow of operating conditions according to another example of the third embodiment. The control unit 40 may control the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 based on the flow rate of the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14, in addition to the actual supply rate of the cooling water W1 and the required flow rate of the cooling water. In this case, as shown in FIG. 8, a sensor T3 is provided in the exhaust gas introduction line 6B. The sensor T3 is a sensor that measures the flow rate and moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1 flowing through the exhaust gas introduction line 6B and introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14. In this example, as shown in FIG. 9, the control unit 40 acquires the required supply rate of the cooling water, the actual supply rate of the cooling water W1, and the flow rate and moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14 (step S30). The moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1 refers to the concentration of moisture contained in the exhaust gas G1. The control unit 40 acquires the flow rate and moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1 measured by the sensor T3 as the flow rate and moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14. The method of acquiring the required supply amount and the actual supply amount may be the same as described above.

[0071] The control unit 40 calculates the required supply amount of cooling water W1 based on the required supply amount of cooling water and the supply amount of cooling water from other equipment (step S32), and determines whether the difference between the actual supply amount of cooling water W1 and the required supply amount of cooling water W1 is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold value (step S34).

[0072] If the difference between the actual supply rate and the required supply rate of the cooling water W1 is not within a predetermined range (step S34; No), that is, if the difference is outside the predetermined range, the control unit 40 sets an adjustment amount for the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 based on the flow rate and moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1 and the actual supply rate of the cooling water W1 (step S36). Specifically, the control unit 40 calculates an outlet moisture amount, which is the amount of moisture contained in the exhaust gas G1 discharged from the exhaust gas cooling device 14, based on the flow rate and moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1 and the actual supply rate of the cooling water W1, and sets an adjustment amount for the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 based on the outlet moisture amount. That is, the control unit 40 calculates, based on the outlet moisture amount, an adjustment amount for the temperature of the cooling water W (i.e., an amount of change in temperature to achieve a target temperature of the cooling water W) such that the difference between the actual supply rate and the required supply rate of the cooling water W1 is equal to or less than a predetermined value.

[0073] The control unit 40 calculates the outlet moisture content, which is the moisture content contained in the exhaust gas G1 discharged from the exhaust gas cooling device 14, using the following formula (1).

[0074] Golden Week out =G in Golden Week in / 100-W1 out

[0075] Here, GW out is the outlet moisture content (Nm 3 / h) and G in is the flow rate (Nm m ) of the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14 3 / h) and GW in is the moisture concentration (vol%) of the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14, and W1 out is the actual supply amount of the cooling water W1. That is, the control unit 40 calculates the inlet moisture amount, which is the amount of moisture contained in the exhaust gas G1 introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14, from the flow rate and moisture concentration of the exhaust gas G1, and calculates the outlet moisture amount as a value obtained by subtracting the actual supply amount of the cooling water W1 from the inlet moisture amount.

[0076] After setting the adjustment amount of the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14, the control unit 40 adjusts the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 by the set adjustment amount (step S38). In this example, the adjustment amount of the operating conditions is set based on the outlet moisture content so that the difference between the actual supply amount and the required supply amount of the cooling water W1 is equal to or less than a predetermined value, so there is no need to adjust the operating conditions multiple times as in the control of FIG. 7.

[0077] As described above, in the third embodiment, the operating conditions of the exhaust gas cooling device 14 are controlled based on the required flow rate of the cooling water, so that it is possible to supply the cooling water W1 in an amount corresponding to the required supply amount.

[0078] (Fourth embodiment) Next, a fourth embodiment will be described. The fourth embodiment differs from the third embodiment in that the cooling water W1 is heated. Explanation of the configurations of the fourth embodiment that are common to the third embodiment will be omitted. Note that the fourth embodiment can also be applied to the first and second embodiments.

[0079] FIG. 10 is a schematic block diagram of a CO2 capture system according to a fourth embodiment. As shown in FIG. 10, the CO2 capture system 100 according to the fourth embodiment includes a heating unit 50 (first heating unit) that heats the cooling water W1. The heating unit 50 heats the cooling water W1 by exchanging heat between the cooling water W1 introduced into the cooling water introduction line 10A and the exhaust gas G1 before the cooling water W1 is introduced into the exhaust gas cooling device 14. As shown in FIG. 10, the heating unit 50 may be configured to transfer heat from the exhaust gas G1 passing through the exhaust gas introduction line 6B to the cooling water W1 passing through the cooling water introduction line 10A. For example, the heating unit 50 may be configured to have the cooling water introduction line 10A pass through the heating unit 50 and bring the exhaust gas G1 passing through the exhaust gas introduction line 6B into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the cooling water introduction line 10A. This allows the heat of the exhaust gas G1 to be transferred from the outer peripheral surface of the cooling water introduction line 10A to the cooling water W1 inside the cooling water introduction line 10A, thereby heating the cooling water W1. Alternatively, heat exchange may be performed via a heat medium. In this case, for example, the heating unit 50 may cause a heat medium to flow through the outer peripheral surfaces of the exhaust gas introduction line 6B and the cooling water introduction line 10A. The heat medium is heated by the exhaust gas G1 at the outer peripheral surface of the exhaust gas introduction line 6B, and heats the cooling water W1 at the outer peripheral surface of the cooling water introduction line 10A.

[0080] The cooling water W1 may be heated by any method other than the heat of the exhaust gas G1. For example, the heating unit 50 may heat the cooling water W1 using the exhaust gas G0 as a heat source, or may heat the cooling water W1 using a heat source other than the heat of the exhaust gas.

[0081] By heating the cooling water W1, the temperature of the cooling water W1 introduced into the combustion equipment 2 and the cooling tower 4 is increased, and the flow rate of the cooling water W1 required to reach the desired temperature of the combustion equipment and the temperature of the exhaust gas G1 is increased, so that the amount of cooling water W1 supplied can be increased and more cooling water W1 can be treated.

[0082] FIG. 11 is a schematic block diagram of a CO2 capture system according to another example of the fourth embodiment. In this example, the CO2 capture system 100 includes a heating unit 52 (second heating unit) that heats the decarbonated gas G3 from which CO2 has been removed in the CO2 capture unit 16A, using the cooling water W1 heated in the heating unit 50. In the example of FIG. 11, the heating unit 52 is connected to the cooling water introduction line 10A downstream of the connection point of the heating unit 50 in the flow direction of the cooling water W1. The heating unit 52 is provided to transfer heat of the cooling water W1 heated in the heating unit 50 through the cooling water introduction line 10A to the decarbonated gas G3 passing through the decarbonated gas introduction line 16E. For example, the heating unit 52 may be configured so that the decarbonated gas introduction line 16E passes through the interior of the heating unit 52, and the cooling water W1 passing through the cooling water introduction line 10A comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the decarbonated gas introduction line 16E.
