Abstract

Abstract: This paper focuses on carbon capture in an Ultra Super Critical power plant. The technology selected for CO2 capture is based on cooled ammonia scrubbing in post-combustion mode, as recently investigated by the authors in another work. Here, a rate-based approach is adopted. In detail, a specific primary energy consumption for CO2 avoided (SPECCA) of 2.77 MJ/kgCO2 is calculated in case of 85% of CO2 capture, with an ultimate power plant efficiency of 37.27%.
