Abstract

Power generation via natural gas is projected to increase over the next decade. CO₂ capture would be required to mitigate the associated emissions. Integrating a capture plant to power plants can be explored via process simulation. Hence, high fidelity models of a natural gas combined cycle power plant and a post-combustion capture plant were built – a 440MW power plant model that ...
