Abstract

Base on a 300 MW power plant, using software Aspen plus, the traditional and the new model was set up. Comparative analysis of the effects of the operating parameters on CO2 removal efficiency, ammonia escape, CO2 removal amount and regeneration heat duty between the two technologies was carried out. Obtaining that the new technology has a great advantage on CO2 absorption and desorption process. In absorption process, the new technology guarantees the high reaction rate and the high NH3 efficiency. In desorption process, the new technology capture the amount of carbon more 30% than the old technology. More important, the regeneration heat duty of the new technology is only 41.5% of the traditional one. So, the new technology is more economic.
