Abstract:
Carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere are drastically increased due to fossil fuel-based power plants and different kinds
of industrial processes. Carbon capture is essential to maintain a better environment. Flue gas emissions from the coal-fired
power plant, gas-fired power plant, cement manufacturing industry as well as the aluminium production industry are considered
for the present study. Carbon dioxide capture model is developed and implemented in Aspen Plus to calculate the regeneration
energy requirement. The regeneration energy requirement in the stripping process in the carbon capture is calculated as 3634,
3781, 3229 and 3085 kJ/kg respectively for coal, gas, cement, and aluminium production process flue gas treating.
