Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods of CO 2 desublimation are presented in which refrigeration content is retained within the system. Most preferably, refrigeration content is recycled by providing the refrigeration content of a CO 2 -lean feed gas to the CO 2 -containing feed gas and to pre-cooling of a desublimator, and/or by providing refrigeration of effluent of a desublimator in regeneration to a refrigerant in a closed refrigeration cycle for deep-cooling of another desublimator.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A flue gas treatment plant, comprising: a flue gas conditioning unit configured to cool a flue gas ( 101 ) in a heat exchanger using a cool CO 2 depleted flue gas ( 108 ) to thereby produce a precooled flue gas ( 106 ) at a flue gas pressure; a desublimation unit comprising a plurality of desublimators that are fluidly coupled to each other and the flue gas conditioning unit such that: (i) a first of the desublimators is configured to receive the precool…
