Dynamic behaviour CO2 capture and compression: an assessment

conference paper
A clear understanding of the dynamic behavior of the whole chain of conventional power generation to CO2 storage is necessary. The rapidly increasing share of renewable energy makes the energy delivered to the grid more fluctuating leading to an impact on the CCS chain as well. A 250 MW scale carbon capture plant with CO2 compression has been modelled with Dymola (dynamic) and with Aspen Plus (steady-state). It is evident that large perturbations in flue gas flow rate will make it difficult to control the water balance. Moreover, parallel compression trains may be necessary to prevent compressors to run in spill back mode.
