Post-combustion process

Post-combustion capture follows the conventional application of a specific purification unit applied for a particular pollutant removal (C02 in this case). Figure 3 illustrates a typical block diagram of the post-combustion process that offers a great feasibility and versatility in terms of operating conditions and process integration.

The combined control of combustion and post-combustion processes constitutes the equivalent of US EPA s Best Current Operating Practice (BOP) discussed above. In this section, we draw out relevant observations concerning the fundamentals of PCDD/F formation in order to inform the development of potential control strategies. 

Post-combustion processes CO2 is captured from the flue gases.

The most important aspects of these three processes are summarized in Table 7.7. Pre- and post-combustion processes, as well as oxy-fuel combustion power qrcles, all give a significant reduction in thermal efficiency, and both material and operative costs for a power plant based on these processes would be quite high. Concerning the C02-capture, membranes can be applied in all the three processes cited. In principle, both polymeric and inorganic membranes can be used to produce clean fuel from a mixture gas (from coal gasification or steam-reforming processes) (Bredesen et al., 2004). From one side, due to their simplicity, flexibility, ability to maintain...
