Abstract

This study investigated the environmental benefits of a new boiler design for a fossil fuel-based power plant with CO2 capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) through thermo-ecological cost (TEC) analysis. MILD oxy-fuel combustion (MOFC) combines the advantages of the moderate and intense low-oxygen dilution (MILD) combustion and oxy-fuel combustion (OFC) to achieve efficient and environmentally justified CO2 capture from fossil fuel-based power generation. The advantages of MOFC application are: (i) it increases the efficiency of the coal-fired boiler, (ii) it increases the purity of the CO2 in the flue gases, (iii) it reduces the oxygen consumption of the boiler by using lower oxidiser excess, and (iv) it reduces the energy consumption associated with CO2 recirculation. Therefore, using MOFC decreases the penalty of the overall net energy efficiency associated with the CO2 capture from coal-fired power plants.
