Life-Cycle Environmental and Economic Assessments of the Oxy-coal Combustion System Combined with a Pressurized Circulating Fluidized Bed and the Supercritical CO2 Brayton Cycle
Abstract:Oxy-coal combustion with circulating fluidized bed (OCFB) is a promising technology for CO 2 capture and sequestration. However, its development is highly hindered by the high price of electricity and CO 2 capture. In this work, a comprehensive life-cycle environmental and economic assessment of OCFB power plants with a pressurized combustor (POCFB) and a supercritical CO 2 Brayton cycle is conducted using a specific life-cycle assessment (LCA) method. There are four processes evaluated in this work, including… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
