Igcc Power Plant

The effect of supplementary firing on the performance of an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plant is studied. The results are presented with respect to a simple ‘unfired’ IGCC power plant with single pressure power generation for both the gas and the steam cycles as reference. The gases are assumed as real with variable specific heats. It is found that the most favourable benefit of supplementary firing can be obtained for a low temperature ratio R T only. For higher R T, only a gain in work output is possible with a reverse effect on the overall efficiency of the plant. The second law analysis reveals that the exergy loss in the heat-recovery steam generator is most significant as the amount of supplementary firing increases. It is also noteworthy that, although the total exergy loss of the plant decreases with higher supplementary firing for a low R T (= 3.0), the reverse is the case for a higher R T (= 6.0).

Igcc Power Plant

The main idea of this research paper is to provide an innovative way of capturing carbon dioxide emissions from a coal powered power plant. This research paper discusses the design and modeling of a carbon capturing membrane which is being used in an IGCC power plant to capture carbon dioxide from its exhaust gases. The modeling and design of the membrane is done using CFD software namely Ansys workbench. The design and modeling is done using two simulations, one describes the design and structure and the second one demonstrates the working mechanism of the membrane. This paper also briefly discusses IGCC which is environmentally benign compared to traditional pulverized coal-fired power plants, and economically feasible compared to the Natural Gas Combine Cycle (NGCC). IGCC power plant is more diverse and offers flexibility in fuel utility. This paper also incorporates a PFD of integrated gasification power plant with the carbon capturing membrane unit integrated in it. Index Terms: Integrated gasification combined cycle power plant, Carbon capture and storage, Gas permeating membrane, CFD based design of gas permeating membrane.
