The principle of CO2 capture utilizing physical-chemical absorption processes has been known for several decades and has proven effective in sour gas treatment, natural gas or biogas processing, and ammonia production. The challenge for CCUS (Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage) is adapting these concepts for oxygen-rich flue gases from heavy industry. GEA demonstrates its strength here, having been active in flue gas treatment systems for decades and possessing extensive knowledge of accompanying trace substances and critical points in integrating a CO2 capture process into existing flue gas systems.
Our liquid scrubbing technology with amine chemistry for separating CO2 from flue gas streams offers technological excellence and enables rapid implementation in existing plants while minimizing negative impacts on upstream processes.
The process configuration consists of a combination of the absorber column and desorber column. The flue gas enters the CO2 capture unit, or absorber column, where the CO2 is chemically absorbed into the amine solution. The CO2-depleted flue gas is released into the atmosphere at the top of the absorption column after being cleaned of amine emissions in additional purification stages.
The enriched amine solution is fed from the sump of the absorber column into the desorber column after passing through a heat exchanger for preheating. In the desorber, the solution is heated further to release the chemically bound CO2. The released CO2 is recovered as a product stream at the top of the desorber column after the condensation of water. The purity of the CO2 stream is typically over 97 percent (at 2 bara and 40 °C), with the residue primarily consisting of water vapor. Depending on the intended use of the CO2, further purification steps may be required.
The amine solutions used by GEA are commercially available and continuously tested in various industries using GEA's own pilot plants. The entire process chain, from pretreatment to the separation of gaseous CO2, is based on extensive experimental data regarding gas composition, separation efficiency, and solvent performance.
And the best news for our customers: Thanks to our process guarantees, you assume no risk when you engage GEA for a carbon capture project.
