Abstract

This paper aims to estimate capture level design of a natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) with CO2 capture by considering the electricity output penalty (EOP), levelised cost of electricity (LCOE), cost of CO2 avoided, optimum size of the equipment, and two novel configurations e.g. exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and sequential gas turbine combustion (SGTC), all of these parameters together. SGTC configuration represents the highest LCOE at different capture rates, even when the number of absorbers is reduced by half due to the incorporation of the air separation unit (ASU) to supply O2 to the second combustor. Compared with a conventional NGCC, if EGR is incorporated, the design capture level increases from 90% to 92% at lower cost of CO2 avoided, lowering carbon intensity (5.2% reduction) while maintaining the same LCOE, even when the volume of the absorber is reduced by 17% approximately. Increasing the capture level is very important to generate electricity nearly to net zero emissions.
