Providing a comprehensive analysis of CO2 compression,
transportation processes and safety issues for post combustion CO2
capture applications for a 900 MW pulverized hard coal-fired power
plant, this book assesses techniques for boosting the pressure of
CO2 to pipeline pressure values with a minimal amount of energy.
Four different types of compressors are examined in detail: a
conventional multistage centrifugal compressor, integrally geared
centrifugal compressor, supersonic shock wave compressor, and pump
machines. The study demonstrates that the total compression power
is closely related to the thermodynamic process and is not
determined by compressor efficiency alone. Another problem
addressed is that of CO2 pipeline transport from the compressor
outlet site to a disposal site under heat transfer conditions. The
book also features an analysis of simulations and models that are
used to determine the maximum safe pipeline distance to subsequent
booster stations as a function of inlet pressure, ambient
temperature, thickness of the thermal insulation and ground-level
heat flux conditions. This book focuses on compression as well as
transportation processes with particular emphasis on the safety
risks related to the transport of CO2. The most important problem
in terms of environmental protection is ensuring precise and
reliable hazard identification. As hazards can only be managed
effectively if they are properly identified, problems involving the
discharge and atmospheric dispersion of CO2 are also discussed.
