Abstract
The proposed IVCAP employs a potassium carbonate (K2CO3) aqueous solution for CO2 absorption. While the absorption takes place at atmospheric pressure, the stripper is operated under a vacuum condition. As seen in Figure 1 and Table 1, the low heat of reaction between CO2 and K2CO3 favors a stripping process operated at a low temperature and the low-quality steam (close to the exhaust end of low-pressure turbine in the power plant) can be used as a heat source for the stripping process as a result.
