CO 2 recovery from IGCC power plants
First Claim
1. In a system involving CO2 capture having an acid gas removal system to selectively remove CO2 from shifted syngas, the acid gas removal system including at least one stage for CO2 removal from an input stream consisting of substantially only dissolved carbon dioxide in physical solvent, the method of recovering CO2 in the acid gas removal system including:
- elevating a pressure of said input stream of dissolved carbon dioxide in physical solvent to produce a pressurized stream upstream of said at least one CO2 removal stage; and
elevating the temperature of the pressurized stream upstream of at least one said CO2 removal stage.

Abstract
In a system involving CO2 capture having an acid gas removal system to selectively remove CO2 from shifted syngas, the acid gas removal system including at least one stage, e.g. a flash tank, for CO2 removal from an input stream of dissolved carbon dioxide in physical solvent, the method of recovering CO2 in the acid gas removal system including: elevating a pressure of the stream of dissolved carbon dioxide in physical solvent; and elevating the temperature of the pressurized stream upstream of at least one CO2 removal stage.
